    a friend of mine has a choice between


    Audi A4 1.8T Quattro

    or


    Lexus IS 300


    Which one would you go with?

    He'll probably buy in a couple months...



    I told him I'd prefer the Lexus...

    If he's gonna keep it for a while: the Lexus. If less than 3 years, it's a toss up. I like the Quattro, but honestly, the Passat 1.8T is basicly the same car & a better buy.

    DON'T EVER EVER EVER BUY AN AUDI IF YOU EXPECT TO DRIVE IT FOR MORE THAT 30000 MILES.

    I think I just read or heard the Lexus retains its value better than any other car.

    Cadillac retains pretty good value, especially older models.
