I am about to buy either a 2005 S4 or a 2005 330i ZHP. Any advice on which one to get? I love the 330i's handling and interior, but the low end and top end power doesn't match the S4. The S4 is an auto vs. 6 spd on 330i. The S4 is 21,900..certified and 1 year left on original warranty...BMW no warranty. I am leaning towards the S4, but would love to hear any unbiased thoughts. Thanks

 

BMW's are my first love, but comparing those two, id jump on the S4 in a heartbeat. It helps that the Audi has some sort of warranty on it, better than nothin ya know? The miles are pretty good for the year, and u cant beat the Quattro system- even up there in Ohio. If ur okay with the gas-guzzling v8, then you should have no problems. Oh, and I think the s4 interior is sexy! I did say I was a BMW fan right? lol
Hope that helps a lil...

 

+1 s4

 

Thanks for the input....still not sure, but definitely leaning towards the S4

 

S4 rules!

 

6 speed > auto

Just search S4 / ZHP topic has been discussed million times

 

330i ZHP hands down.... love them to absolute death, esp with the 6spd and carbon dash trim.... droooooool.....

 

get the bmw. i could see how it might be a tougher choice if the audi were a stick but in this case it's a no brainer

 

+1 for the Audi.

 

S4!!! I had a 330Ci with a lot of mods. You cannot beat the sound of the V8. Just be prepared for ~10mpg from the S4

 

Maybe this will help your decision

I test drove both cars and ended up buying the S4. Love the car....can't beat the V-8...just keeps pulling. The car definitely feels heavier than the zhp, but handles extremely well.

 

Audi s4!

 

Agree...love the car!

 

Good choice! That will hopefully be my next car in avant form.

What color? Lets see some photos!
