cat, you are wrong
+1! An old friend of mine's parents own one of the local Audi dealerships...and we went for a ride in one when they first came out....

ya got me blue. i was looking at the coupe. my bad. why would anyone be looking at the4 door anyway. ugly!!!!!!!
Well, the OP wants a car to replace his current 4 door, so the sedan makes sense.
They look pretty sharp in person. (I've seen 2 now)
I'd never buy a car like that new, though - let some other fool take the huge depreciation hit!

I laugh at the Audi dealerships....if noone saw my posts before that at my local Audi dealerships that a 2009 2.0T A4 brand new with premium package is 37500 and a 2008 2.0T A4 with same equipment (disregarding the LEDs) with 3k miles is 25-27k

If I was around a place to race ppl..I'd get a RS4, if I'm going practicality and something that won't kill my wallet in gas and insurance...then I'd hit the 2.0T
I'd never be in a V6 Audi

You can get a 2009 Mercedes C300 Sport with pop up Nav screen, Panoramic roof, manual trans, 18" wheels, full leather, heated seats, rain sensing wipers, a TON more stuff, and even light up door sill plates for 2 grand more than the Hyundai. Not to mention... a better resale value.

Genesis = big
(R)S4 = compact
I assume size matters if he's looking at the Genesis in the first place?

why would you ever choose the rs4 over the 335 coupe? no sense of style?

Because any yahoo that makes 45 thousand a year can get a BMW, plus look at re-sale value, and they are fast as heck!

Forget the Genesis...he should get a Maybach.
+1 make sure you get the 57 and not the 62, they are huge!
Why does everyone always mention resale? Do you not plan to keep the car? If not then why not just lease? It's not like a car is an investment. No matter how passionate we are about them, or how much we may love to drive them (I certainly do!), they are still nothing more than a durable good. Does anyone ask the resale value of a computer? A TV? A toaster? A motorcycle? An ATV? I bought my 2000 new and then, nor now, could care less about resale. Then again, it's almost 9 years old and still going strong with over 165K miles on it!

You are a rare breed. There are very few people who buy new cars that actally plan keeping them longer than a couple years.

I think re-sale value should play a huge part, especially if you are financing. How often have you wanted to trade you car in, but couldnt because you were 10 thousand upside down.

I drove a Pontiac G8. $12,000 less than the Genisis and it is bada$$. That thing will move and sticks like a dream.
