Enjoy when the timing chain guides break, and it costs you 10k to have the motor pulled and the chain repaired (because some idiot put the chain on the back of the motor).

I used to help out at a German shop (mostly for fun and experience, but I was paid), and we would laugh whenever a B6 or B7 S4 came in for chain problems.

The new B8 supercharged V6 is nice, but an Audi will never beat a Bimmer. I love both brands, but AWD leads to massive understear.

That and we don't drive a "luxury" marquis of any car, BMW is BMW. Plain as that. Audi is a fancy Volkswagen, and it retains of some the feel, and quality of build. I've never owned or worked on a car as well put together as a BMW.
What does BMW have to beat an Audi R8 V10?
