Im contemplating on changing to an Audi S4 when my current lease expires. The new 535i is nice ,but something tells me to try something new. I like both cars but the BMW sales people are really upsetting me cause they know their product is hot and are very unhelpful, they don't seem to care if you buy or not. What do you think?

Well in all honesty, BMW is hot right now and I see them dominating everything in the future. Me personally, an RS4 is not for me. Too bland for me

Too bland RS4 is sick, body kit and carbon fiber interior is beautiful

Not to mention, V8 power with all wheel drive

rolle, not sure when your lease is up but the S5 looks like a much nicer choice.

Following the release of the RS4, the S4 does not seem to make any sense anymore

Its performance will be down on a 535 and (at least in the UK) they are expensive to run (eat tyres, 21mpg etc etc) the rear leg room is also very poor compared to the E60.

The S5, being new, would be more attractive.

just my 2c worth

I don't get how people on this forum can knock Mbenz or Audi. BMW, Benz, Audi are all great car companys. On what car to get, it really depends on what your are going to use the car for. I have owned each make atleast once in my life. To be honest the two BMWs I have owned have had the most problems, but I still love the cars.

Kudos to being open minded and flexible.
I treat cars the same way...I'll buy the one I feel good about.
