Which one do you choose of these top-of-the-line German cars?
I pick Audi for the great styling of their cars, the quattro AWD system and the S- and RS-models.

I do really like BMW, because they look pretty good, specially the M models. However, I have to admit, that Audi's have much better mechanical work.

The AWD system Audis have is great, and BMW's do not have such one.

First of all i'd like to say that i like both Audi and BMW just the same.Well...Maybe BMW a little bit more
...But what do you mean that Audi doesn't make such powerful cars as BMW???The low and mid class in BMW is VERY weak in horsepower...All 1.6lt and 1.8lt BMW models are weaker than the ones that Audi has made..Compare a 316 with an A3 or A4(not to mention S3/4)..BMW on the other hand has made the
VERY BEAUTIFUL M class with powerful cars like the M3(I love
this car) and M5 but Audi also has the S and RS models that are powerful too..So i think that although BMWs are much more beautiful(especially if you compare the cheap models of the two companies) they are "weaker" when the displacement is in a range of 1.6-2.0lt.(I must say that the old S3 was VERY good looking car...)

Yeah i am waiting for the new A6 and RS6 and RS4 and maybe RS3........
Btw, why don't they make a RS-version of the beautiful TT? That would be awesome..............

BMW definitely, afterall, 850csi - what a car
plus, bmws are easier to tune than audis and mercedes.

THE AUDI - the best styling, best tech, quattro, and the TT is the design icon of the 90's.
PLus I own A4 Avant, so I am biased
Beemer = every man and his dog has one, that's the only reason I don't rank it best.
Merc are for when I turn 50.. and only SL 500.

Yea, it could be made to go faster than walking speed for a start, not even the 225bhp model is startlingly fast (6.2secs to 60).

I'd cut it's fenders to add 20 inces wheels, and make them apeear an inch to the outside.

Grez WRX Killer,
The TT is available with 3.2 V6 and has the Dual Shift Gearbox. That car is NOT slow!

the 225bhp tt does 60 in 6.2 secs, the tt you mentioned does 60 in 6.4 seconds, as the gear ratio is different, so yes, it is slow
