lol, I'll tell you what bro...if you're worried about reliability I would definitely not be getting a used Audi...especially s4.

Get a lexus, those things are built to last.

your not going to find really anything quicker than the G that is under $35,000. The G is one of the best cars that are under $45,000 let alone $35,000. But hey good luck. You could always go look at the new IS350 from Lexus. I have a Lexus ES300 for my winter car and it runs perfectly with 116,000miles on it.

There's a thread about the IS350... it doesn't sound all that promising performance wise (not worthy of a trade for G anyway)... I have yet to test drive one though... I'm hoping what they are saying in that thread is true.

you must be talking about the newer S4. the 2.7bi-turbo is not all that great. my girlfriend almost got one and we test drove t a few times and it does not feel that fast stock (she ended up with a used M3). But as for the new V8 S4, damn that is a rocket!!!

I'll admit...I had the same thoughts. It basically comes down to, with the problems I've had (yes, some of us have problems) I wouldn't own this car out of warranty.

If you want to keep it, I'd recommend spending the ~$1300 or so for the Infiniti extended warranty.

All I can say is that my friend has an S4 and I wouldn't take his S4 over my G if he paid me!

Get a preowned Audi. You'll be trading it in within a few thousand miles for blown turbo's
