    Fit and finish has to be given to those German built cars, honestly, I was seriously impressed when I sat in it. From the leather to the materials used, it was oozing in luxury. Being a fan and user of BMW cars, this was rather surprising considering the A4 was actually cheaper than the 3 series.

    It looks like a very sharp car in the front thanks to the DRLs. Looks pretty scary on the highway too when you see the DRLs staring at you in your rear mirror.

    Power was shockingly impressive too. The EA888 motor and the mutitronic CVT was actually quite good. In normal mode, since the engine has a lot of low down torque, you never actually need to rev it hard to get to highway speeds. Its a very comfortable cruiser too, and also quite efficient. For those moments you feel like it, a flick on the paddle shifters give you nice 8 "gears". While they are not too bad, they don't "shift" as fast as the ZF boxes or the DSG.But hey, no low speed judders!

    Supremely quiet too compared to the 3 series. This car has aged brilliantly compared to the Mercedes C class, which I personally feel looks really out of date and is not as timeless. Lumbar support was a welcome addition, so was keyless entry and 4 year warranty (BMW, take note). Bang and Olufsen audio was really nice too. It's also nice that Audi actually allows us to custom order if we want too.

    Rear seat did feel tight for an average sized person, in fact I think it felt more tight than some C segment cars. GPS is a cost upgrade which is quite shocking compared to the rest which have it as standard. The cost to have it in defeats the purpose of getting it as you could get a better Garmin unit for less than 10% of the price.
    The steering feel was absolutely non existent, which was very "Audi" like. Such a pity that even in dynamic mode it never felt alive, and considering the suspension setup was pretty good and it never really rolled (it comes as standard with drive select and adjustable suspension, something the BMW doesn't get in the 320i and 320d (non M Sport). The steering while being nice to hold, the buttons were initially confusing but once you get them they are fine. Same with MMI too.

    There is no reverse camera as standard too which is a bit of a pity,

Probably remind customers that they could actually order a custom car through the dealers, which would help make it flexible. I was only told of this after some talking. Also, it would be nice to have more dealerships throughout Malaysia too. Also try and introduce the guaranteed future value and Audi Finance system here too, as that would help in the purchase of the car, just like BMW Credit.
Yes, I would recommend this car

    Good torque and effortless overtaking and pickup! Smooth long journey cruiser. Wonderful sound system! Very economy on fuel consumption when drive with good anticipation and moderate speed. one can easily achieved 5.9L/100km on highway and free traffic road in Malaysian wheather (aircond on, music on)
    Elastic feel the gearbox... as it is CVT (Multitronic). Steering feel a little artificial. Suspension a tad too stiff even in Comfort mode.

A quicker response of gear would be most welcome
