Trendzero’s journey to perfection!
Technology I would say they are about equal, although I liked the Navi on my TL a little more, thought it was a bit more user friendly. ML sound is much better then my TL though.
Performance the TL probably compares to the 250 but my 350 blows it out of the water!
Maintenance is better on the IS with a less problems. Also, the IS has less major services and less major parts to replace over time. Cost was about equal for service. TL also had timing belt...
The leather in my TL also wore out quick and the finishes weren't quite as nice.
I really did enjoy the TL but all things considered the IS is much better overall
IS to S4
Technology. I hated the Navigation system in the Audi and the "Bose" sound system was horrible.
Performance. I threw an aftermarket supercharger in that beast and the supercharged V8 6spd had a wonderful "fun" factor. The sound of the car and the throttle response was great. Also, living in Denver, driving it in the mountains was a blast. Going from that to the IS took some getting used to so performance "fun" I would say S4 > IS but a standard non supercharged S4 or A4 to IS the about the same.
Maintenance. What can I say about this. I had to build a seperate savings account solely for repairs on the S4. I love spending my money on Mods and all I spending it on was repairs.... I couldn't go a week without a CEL coming on. NIGHTMARE.....
The silk nappa leather and interior comfort in the S4 was top notch though.
Overall I love my IS and will keep it for a long time. HOWEVER, I am only doing cosmetic mods to the IS and saving up for either a E92 M3 or ISF as my next fun weekend/show car.

Nice, nice, nice...if you dont mind, how much was the front lip and where did u buy it?
Also, i think you are the only one with the wood flat bottom steering wheel, that thing is freaking sick, and the **** is clean too. Most people switch to CF, like myself, but with the oem wood and that steering wheel your interior is looking georgous.

Thanks. I am a carbon fiber freak and have had in all my cars but I decided to go with the wood "classy" look in this car. I really do enjoy it. Thanks for the compliment.
Excited to see your whip when it's finished!! Merry ChristmasThanks!
Wow that sucks, hopefully insurance is taking care of it. I am getting them after tax time, so around March. Not worth putting 20's on until then anyways.
