Comparing 2L 4-cylinder to 3L 6-cylinder isn't fair in the first place, not to mention the $5400 difference in price tag.
The A4 3.2 with the 255hp V6 should be tested instead. The 2.0T is meant to compete with the 325i.

I have no doubt the BMW drives as good as they say though.

And....while we all know that a stick can be a PITA in traffic, I agree with Edmunds that Audi's not pairing the V6 with a manual transmission, at least as an option for those who drive in uncongested areas, is a mistake.

2.0L I4 turbo vs 3.0 I6?

i dont really think it was a fair game, it should be with 325i instead of 330i

You're right it does...the thing is amazing...ridiculously amazing....way better than the previous generation and i didn't think handling could get any better to be honest.
