I was under the impression that Audi got around this problem with their "EDL" electronic differential lock, a fancy name for the software in their ABS/stability control that brakes the wheel or wheels that have no traction.

I test drove all of them (A4 3.0 Quattro, IS250 AWD, 325xi and 330xi) at an xDrive Comparison Event back in April. The Audi didn't leave me impressed but the other 3 vehicles did. On the IS, I can feel it as each wheel braking and such as the computer distributes the power. It's more transparent in the BMWs. The only thing I can think of for choosing the xi models is because of the 330xi (and the corresponding price tag).

I loved the Audi AWD system on my 2000 S4. The combination of Quattro and snow tires was unstoppable.

we have BMW company cars here and I have to say I'm just not sold on the interiors. on every one we've had the leather seems thick and almost rubbery, the gauges are boring and everything else is just plasticy *had 330's now have new 325's so you know what model*
If i'm paying a lot more for something else I want it to be better and I just dont get that with the BMW's. I like the G35's interior better than the bimmers. The cars are over priced IMO.
Audi....ehhhh.... they all look the same. if it wasn't an S4 or better I'd pass.
Lexus all the way!!!!
