This Year's Model Updates:

Audi's entry-level sedan and companion Avant wagon get a complete redesign for 2009. The new A4 is longer and wider, resulting in more interior room and cargo space. The optional Drive Select system allows the driver to customize steering, suspension and transmission settings, and a rearrangement of the front axle has yielded a less-nose-heavy weight distribution. New technology features include direct injection for both engines, adaptive cruise control, a blind-spot warning system and a revised version of Audi's MMI systems controller. The convertible A4, however, carries over from last year.

Pros:
  • Luxuriously appointed cabin, above-average passenger and cargo space, good ride and handling balance, widely available all-wheel drive.
Cons:
  • Not as quick as many rivals, controls can be fussy, convertible employs previous-generation platform.

  • Hits The Mark - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    In the three years leading up to this car, I drove a Saab 9-3. And I admittedly enjoyed the car. But after driving the Audi A4, I cant imagine ever going back to another manufacturer. The handling is tight, the speed is quick and the ride is firm without being hard.

  • Love this car! - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    Love this car. Its fun to drive and has character. It may not be the fastest in its class, but it is fast enough. The interior design is excellent and the interior space is much more roomier than the older A4s. Personally, I think the exterior design is nicer than the 3 series and C class.

  • No More Corvettes - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    After two Corvettes, I decided I needed something more practical but still fun to drive. The Infiniti G37X was a little too small and too stiff and the 328xi a little too expensive. The A4 was just right. It handles well and accelerates nicely with the turbo 4. I dont think the V6 adds much more. It holds 4 people comfortably. I wouldnt go for 5 unless 3 are very small. The trunk is huge. The interior is handsome and the sound system is fine. This is my first experience with BlueTooth and its much better than OnStar.

  • From a 2007 G35 to a REAL CAR!!! - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    I just got the A4 AWD 2.0T AT White w/ Black interior Premium Plus with the custom OEM Audi Sport 18" rims on all seasons and added the chrome tips. Changing the wheels and tips turns this car into a whole entire different animal. The ride is 100% better than my last sedan 2007 G35 AWD. This sedan is a much better value than the BMW AWD 3 series and the Benz C AWD. I love the ride and now I think I will be an Audi fan for a long time!!

  • This car is not like previous Audis - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    Ever since I saw the R8 commercials on the Superbowl, Ive been following Audi more closely. Im glad I did. I own the new 2009 Audi, and Ive been so impressed with it. Watch out for this car. It accelerates 0-60 a full second faster than the previous Audi A4s. The LED lights are so cool. The braking is amazing. People stop dead in their tracks and look at it. Put this thing in S mode and drive down a windy road. The car grips the road, and its substantially different than in D, its not some gimmick.

  • The best German car period - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    Being stationed in Europe, I have had the privilege to drive on the infamous Autobahn. I truly believe that Audi is the best German automobile. I have owned three, TT, A6 and now the new A4, all quattros. This new generation Audi is over the top. I bought this car for my wife as an anniversary present. We took a trip together and this car feels, looks, smells, sounds and handles just like a German automobile should. The B & O sound system is the best sound system I have ever heard. Our car comes fully equipped with the exception for navigation and suspension control. The days of notoriety of owning a MB or BMW are over. I always thought they were overrated.

  • Fantastic car!! - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    I just bought the 09 A4 Avant with Prestige package, Navigation, 19" Sports package and Drive Select. After about 1200 miles I must say that this is by far the best and most fun car I ever owned. The technology is cutting edge, the interior is on par with any recent Porsche (and much better than its direct competitors) and the performance is much better than the previous generation A4. The new A4 has dethroned the BMW as the true ultimate driving machine. As a previous A4 owner, I am pleased that Audi addressed all design flaws from the B7 models. It now boosts stronger hinges on arm rests, cup holders closer to the center of gravity etc

  • So this is what the fuss was all about! - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    After drooling over it since it came out I finally picked up the 2.0 Turbo with the Premium Plus package in brilliant red with tan interior. This car is awesome! The turbo has excellent giddy-up, and the extra foot lbs. of Torque give this car plenty of pop of the line and set it apart from any other seday in its class. The Audi MMI can be challenging at 1st, but once you get the hang of it is very easy to use. I love the ipod integration (a must for me) and the bluetooth phone feature that downloads your phone book. The new body style provides plenty of room in the back for my 3 year old daughter. I had an MDX, and I now love to drive again! ps. The LEDs are poppin!

  • Audi A4 Prestige with navigation - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    This is a fantastic vehicle! I test drove numerous vehicles before purchasing the Audi A4 including the Lexus IS250, BMW 328xi, Mercedes-Benz C300 4MATIC, and the Acura TL. The A4 was the best vehicle hands down. The handling of this vehicle on wet and dry roads is excellent. I feel like Im riding on rails even in the snow. The interior is beautiful and made with high quality materials. Every button and every dial feels great to the touch. The back seat has enough room for even your biggest family members. The trunk is enormous for a 4-door sedan. This vehicle is extremely quick for a 4-cylinder turbo. The back-up camera is unlike any other youve ever seen! LED lights turn heads!

  • No more need for BMW. - 2009 Audi A4
    By -

    My 550i lease just expired and I wanted to downsize the car but not the features. The A4 2.0 with Prestige seemed like just the answer. I have never heard a better car stereo than the B&O system that comes with the Prestige package. The daytime LEDs are very cool and this design really hit the target! I was also used to keyless go so this option is now a must have for me. Finally, the side alert is a great feature and my mirrors tell me if someone is in my blind spot with a flashing light. Except for power I actually like this car a lot more than my 550i.
