I'm shopping... which is fun. Narrowed things down to an A4 1.8T quattro and the MB C240 4matic. I am partial to Audi, owned an 01 200T quattro for several years - very positive experience - but trying not to be blinded by that :). I live in the midwest USA, and need AWD, but then I'd get quattro anyway. The A4 seems more responsive. I was annoyed by a bit of turbo lag, but otherwise a very pleasing drive. My greatest pleasure driving in this part of the world is driving deserted backroads at high speeds, and am mainly wondering which car is the superior cruiser when you start to push the USA governor setting. Any comments appreciated.
