Audi A4 Avant 2.0T quattro: Review

Audi A4
Robert Farago from "The truth about cars" made a review of the Audi A4 Avant 2.0T quattro. And his only complains about this car are: too small and too pricy!
What is too pricy? After reading his comments on the interior and on the design, we believe that this car is worth its money.
Coming to his complain about the too small size: Ok, that's a personal standpoint. We could start a discussion about the size of the average American driver and if there's an issue and who's responsible for that, but we won't. Anyway we still think he liked the car! Appreciated.
You gotta love Audi. Despite its rivals’ explosive growth, The Boys from Ingolstadt have resisted the lure of sudden intended niche acceleration. While questions about reliability and resale value have shadowed the brand’s progress like a pack of predatory wolves, Audi keeps on plugging away with a limited line of luxury limos, waiting for their turn to fill US owners’ heated garages. As always, the A4 is both the point man and the mainstay of Audi’s long march. Does the latest evolution finally signal the beginning of the end of the beginning?

Inside, welcome to the world’s best interior. Not even brother Bentley can compete with the A4’s superbly coordinated combination of shapes, textures, colors, materials and ergonomics. Did you know that every A4 switch, from the radio station buttons to the odometer’s trip reset to the HomeLink transponder, responds with the exact same click? Or that the carmaker employs haptic and olfactory teams to make sure Audi interiors feel and smell like, um, Audi interiors? If you were wondering how the guys running Ingolstadt's four ring circus dare charge 40 large for a miniature station wagon, then you’ve never road tripped in an A4 Avant-- or worn an Armani suit.
