1) Too heavy.
2) Front wheel biased AWD system
3) Poor weight distribution.
But I will give you this about Audis, They look GREAT on paper and pictures. Good engineering work, and alot of marketing dollar backing it up right now.

Now thats a nice looking VW Jetta! 
2007 M3 will obviously destroy that "competition"
Who wants a fast 4 door sedan anyways? What are you going to do, take the kids to soccor practice in under 4.8 seconds?

[/quote] Hey, what do you want me to say?
It's my opinion, and if I explain it I am going to piss people off, have this thread closed by our admin and it would not lead anybody to buy a BMW instead of AUDI.
Ppl have different opinions, here is mine: AUDI sux! Plain and simple.

My Ride: 2010 E63 AMG -- Palladium Silver/Black.
Love this car but looking to switch things up to keep things fresh. 2nd AMG in a row, but toying with coming back into the BMW fold!
I hear everyone's BMW loyalty coming through loud and clear, but you have to give Audi credit for the first mover advantage regarding the first 3 series / C class / A4 model sized car to hit the 400+ HP mark.
Also, for those of us that live in colder climates, AWD is a very nice feature to have for winter high performance handling and safety.
Just an objective "alternative" viewpoint...
P.S. I still can not get over the horrible "big mouth" grill and "wimpy" tail lights on the new Audi model, though.

I think Audi makes a terrific car, and this one looks pretty dang good. With a weight/power ratio of 3.93 kg/hp this is very close to M5 territory. 0-200 kph in 16.6 seconds is quicker than the RS6. I have to give Audi credit for pushing BMW. Competition is a good thing!
