Thinking of getting a AUDI A4

Im thinking of trading in my 2007 Toyota Tacoma for a 2008 Audi A4 2.0T Front wheel drive. Im getting about 16 MPG city and if I'm lucky 20 Highway in the Tacoma. The A4 is my way of switching to a car with better fuel efficiency but at the same time having a car that looks nice. (not a fan of the hybrids out right now) The A4 gets about 21 city and 30 highway.
What do you guys think? anyone own a 08 A4?

My Tacoma

I really don't see the point of owning both a G and an A4. If this is gonna be your daily to save gas, maybe you should just get a Honda.

A4's are nice..... They really have a strong pull if you want to race.. Gas mileage however is way overrated... Its at the same level as the G...

I dunno though because I was driving it really hard. The auto tranny is awesome!

Damn, you traded your g for a truck?

In that case, get the A4 then. It's a nice looking car. I personally would get the new g sedan though.

If your to get an Audi A4, please GOD let yourself get the 2009 A4 model. the 2009 models get so sexy looking, its soo nice looking. definately get the 2009 model if your going for the A4. the 2008 models don't look so appealing.

The 09s looks nice but there are some great deals on the 08s my uncle just picked one up for $320 a month with $2000 down 36 month lease with 15k year.

Ohh! NVM.. I thought you were talking about the new model A4 with the 2.0T I had the 2008

I'm sure the 1.8 gets the good MPG but there's not good performance in that car . Your more concerned with the MPG so you're fine!
