AUDI HAS BECOME MY OBSESSION

[Alex2265]

yes can i have bmw ?

[agkjsdghjfkghsfdjkgh]

Audi is beautiful on the inside, no competition. But with the facelifted A4 and A5 coming, the A6 looks just like any other Audi, including the A1, which is bad for a 55k+ car.

As for the BMW, I hate how glossy the wood is, looks like plastic

[MrFrankieFiggz]

A6 is gorgeous...thats what a car should look like...bmw and merc....just suck

[trapking0]

a6 is a over price passat

[123459375]

@trapking0 uhmmm you are so wrong my friend :P go and learn more ....

[hisham031170]

AUDI FTW

[go0504333770]

BMW for me.

[cprfilmz]

Mercedes Benz was on top but you cant go higher just go down :( im happy i got a old one built like tanks! :)

[chonaV]

I'd go for comfort. So it's BMW for me.

[denyssgmg]

a6 first place....4:39 4:45 just listen... Audi win!!

[pipolipipop]

That Audi wins I don't quite understand, for they said that the BMW is more confortable but pricier. Should comfort not have its price. why should that make audi win. Audi does own BMW in acceleration due to its lightweight chasis made from aluminum which also lets it stop faster. BMW does have the best, in my oppinion, entertainment system compared to mercedes and Audi.

mercedes has gotten a bit old and one should be able to tell. Audi though announced that they were not going to

make an S6 wh

[ZovuMeJames]

@pipolipipop Quattro , fastest 0-100 , cheaper ...that's why

[yumyumluckycharms]

You guys are bitching on which one is better than the other..... yet you can't afford it. smh.

[Slimecrazy234]

2013 Lexus GS beats them all.

[zkalra1]

I agent even seen a single review or compare where this new a6 has lost to its other two main rivals. Now I wish I had got this as opposed to my f10 530d!!

[swaggerchampp]

currently, i can't decide between the 5Series and the A6, though I've had my A4 for a while and it's been treating me quite well lol. German cars <3

[Elmo2777]

I love audi a lot. Seriously, maybe it's the top of these 3 brands, but honestly I'm tired of looking so many audi's on the road nowadays. I live in Curacao and it looks like they give these cars away for free

[haziqdaM5fanatic]

Living in Malaysia, it will change. The A4 is bloody expensive here compared to its counterpart from BMW and Mercedes. I don't think it will change much for the A6. Still, I've seen like less than 10 A6 on the road but the BMW and Mercedes are everywhere on the street. That pretty much says it all. Nonetheless, all three of those are definitely a great car!

What this video tells is just their opinion, your experience is what matters in your choice.

[n8neiTen8n]

1. BMW

2. Audi

3. Mercedes

[ericmario7]

shit review. audi is ugly like shit!

bmw is the best!

[e39black540]

BMW all the way, it got everything u want in a car, luxury, performance, safety, looks, sporty, fun, overall just a great German vehicle! In my opinion Audi was always one level below BMW it just cant keep up with BMW.

[iggibars]

@e39black540,

Shows how much you know about the new BMW 5-Series vs. the new A6. The A6 trumps it in nearly every category, including handling!

[BabkenBMW]

@iggibars

That's why the whole world chooses the 5 Series despite it costs more than the mediocre A6.

[iggibars]

@BabkenBMW "the whole world" that's how biased you are. Not surprised though...look at your name. I don't care what retarded BMW fanboys think on here, especially when they claim false info.

[8150shaf]

@iggibars I admit that the 5 series is extremely elegant, but I also agree that the Audi is simple and elegant. However I like Mercedes the most (Just bringing another side to the argument ;D).

I like the E Class because it has elegance in its design and also has a rich feel when you look at it. Whereas the A6 is simplistic, a bit too much for me.

[iggibars]

@8150shaf, I was looking at the E350 4-Matic before I leased my A6, and I was let down. It's not as nice as the old E-class. The exterior styling looks like an Accord, which is nice for an Accord owner, but not for someone who expects a Mercedes to be a Mercedes. Also, the E-class depreciates the fastest of the 3 cars, which leads to worse lease rates and incentives. The A6 holds the most value over a 36/39 month time frame(usual lease time). The 350 also felt underpowered(compared to the 2).

[8150shaf]

@iggibars If you want power buy the AMG. This is a luxury refined car, the E Class is selling better than the other two. The facts speak for themselves.

[iggibars]

@8150shaf I don't want "power" from an AMG model, I just didn't want a slug - which is what the E350 is when compared to the A6 v6 or 535xi. Besides, you can't even get an AMG in awd. If I wanted that much power, there's the M or RS models, which are way better at handling the power they have.

[8150shaf]

@iggibars For Audi there is no RS model available yet. And yes the M5 is faster and better at handling than the AMG.

But overall luxury, comfort and everything I will take the E-Class. I also think the design preference comes down to personal likes.

However the E-Class is selling the best out of the three.

[BabkenBMW]

@iggibars

And I don't care what such hopeless and unaware idiots like you post here. Unlike you I have clear facts that prove my point. And the term "whole world" shouldn't be understood in direct way, kid.

[iggibars]

@BabkenBMW "clear facts?" Really? All I'm reading from you is biased BS! Call me a kid if you want, it's not like you're smart enough to know, but I'm the one driving the car I'm arguing about, as all you can do is come on here arguing about something you wish you had!

[BabkenBMW]

@iggibars

So you're driving an A6, aren't you? So now I see which of us is biased. You haven't so far brought clear facts but your subjective and unsupported viewpoint. I'll bring one of just many: the 5 Series is the clear leader in its segment in terms of sales.

[iggibars]

@BabkenBMW,Owning a car doesn't make me biased. Not owning one and falsely claiming crap does. Sales means jack in this world...if it does, all of our cars are getting beaten by a Camry! Also, the A6 was just unveiled, and has had a MUCH shorter delivery time span than that of BMW/Merc. But, I guess you meant to leave out the fact that BMW/Merc/Lexus have been loosing sales to Audi. Also, my facts are based on actual car reviews and test...Car & Driver, CR, MT, etc. They all say the same thing.

[BabkenBMW]

@iggibars

If sales mean nothing to you, then you're far from reality, kid. And your empty comment proved that you understand nothing in marketing as well since Camry isn't in the same league with the 5 Series, E-Class and the A6. Since 2005 BMW has firmly held the best-selling premium brand title. All your Audi can do is to name its USD20000 A1 a premium vehicle in order not to lag far behind BMW. As for reviews they're not as unanimous as you say (as you'd like).

[iggibars]

@BabkenBMW, You need to get a life instead of arguing about something you will never own! I got the car I wanted to spend my money on, and that's that. You stupid BMW fanboys are to stupid and stubborn to know the difference between night and day. I'm done arguing with retards like you.

[BabkenBMW]

@iggibars

Grow up, little kid, and get familiar with the current market situation. BMW owns Mercedes-Benz leaving no chance.

[iggibars]

@BabkenBMW, You must be REALLY biased to be avoiding all the reviews out there. You don't see me ranting on youtube A6 reviews about BMW being better, unlike you. I like what I have, and it is the best choice possible for me, and as actual reviewing agencies claim, they agree with me. Stick with your lame, expensive, unreliable BMW, and just keep your trap shut! No one really cares to hear you whining non-stop!

[garrus210]

the bmw is the best

[kimjb95]

everyone starts to like audi now lol

[douwex]

mercs and audies aren't that well build as beamers. A beamer you can trust. audies arn't reliable cars......

[JoeCaliforniah]

so u choose A6, coz bmw is pricier? shit review. just leave the price review for me to decide eh. leave economy out of ur shit review.

[Yemoko]

@JoeCaliforniah

i agree with you....



[ziz4ever]

audi 5.5 sec to 100 and bmw 5.9...how is that the best performance for bmw out of all 3???

[dufferego87]

@ziz4ever PERFORMANCE doesnt mean acceleration

[tomminkina]

you got that right Just picked up A6 it is unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GQstyless]

The mercedes looks stupid.

1. BMW

2. Audi

3. Mercedes

[MrFrankieFiggz]

Ouch... Audi beating the BMW on performance?! oooof...BMW sucks, the 3 series, 5 series, and 7 series all look the same

[abhishek72554]

mercedes are best for me they never ditch iny real world conditions n S CLASS still the best selling car so far n in 2003 during its launch people call it the BEST CAR IN WORLD n yes launch in mid 2012 is due

[CalvinS63]

A3 v.s 1-Series = Audi

A4 v.s 3-Series = Audi

A5 v.s 3-Series Coupe = Audi

A6 v.s 5-Series = Audi

A8 v.s 7-Series = Audi

Why, oh why would anyone buy a BMW over an Audi, seriously?

[danthedan20]

@CalvinS63 you're right

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

Ask those buyers who choose BMW over Audi and thus making BMW the undisputed leader in the premium segment.

[CalvinS63]

That hardly anyone. The stats show that more people are leaving BMW for Audi. Audi's are better looking, they have nicer interiors, far more luxurious, better engines and create amazing noises from the exhausts. BMW are shit. There is only one BMW I actually like and that's the new 6-Series Coupe and Gran Coupe.

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

That's why BMW's sales are increasing at a rapid rate. Your comment can't even stand criticism. All your Audi can do is to produce a USD20,000 A1 and call that Golf-status vehicle a premium one in order no to lag far behind BMW. But even in that case they do lag behind. So I don't regard a Golf-like brand (Audi) as a real competitor to BMW.

[CalvinS63]

Just face it you tool, BMW are shit. Audi's are quite literally better than BMW in every conceivable way. To be honest I don't valve your opinion as it just pathetic and idiotic. I hate BMW's and always have done. There is no amount of convincing that will make me like a BMW. Unless it has an 'M5' badge at the rear and a big fat growling 4.4 litre Twin-Turbo V8 at the front, then possibly I'd maybe consider that over a little sporty A1. But, other than that situation - no way! Audi FTW!

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

Just face it, you idiot: BMW IS THE CLEAR LEADER IN THE PREMIUM SEGMENT RIGHT NOW LEAVING YOUR audi FAR BEHIND. So go and cure your empty brain. And I wouldn't even compare a superior brand (BMW) to a VW owned pathetic and unreliable audi.

[CalvinS63]

But BMW isn't leading, Audi is. BMW are far more superior. Audi's have better fuel economy, looks, engines, interior and exterior's. You mean to say that because Audi is owned by VW that makes it shit? You do know VW also own Seat, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti and Skoda. All those car companies are doing alright and make decent cars. Bentley, Lambo and Audi, however, are all in a class of their own. BMW doesn't hold a patch on an Audi.

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

That's why BMW is the clear leader of the premium market in terms of sales. And that is even when Audi considers its USD20,000 A1 a premium one when it's not. So it's Audi which is far behind both in prestige and choice.

[CalvinS63]

In terms of sales, I guess BMW is on top only for one reason: they have so many different segments filled which ultimately results in all BMW's being the same. The A1 is a premium car - for it's class. Meaning more so than a Mini, Fiat 500 etc, etc.. Choice? A1 (3dr, 5dr), A3 S3 RS3 (3dr, 5dr, Conv) A4 S4 RS4 (4dr, 5dr, conv, all-road) A5 S5 RS5 (2dr, 5 dr, conv) A6 S6 RS6 (4dr, 5dr) A7 S7 (5dr) A8 S8 (4dr) Q3, Q5, Q7, TT TTS TTRS (2dr, Conv) R8 V8 R8 V10 R8 GT (2dr, Conv). Lots to choose from.

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

Wrong. At least BMW's cheapest model (the 1 Series) starts at about USD29,000 as distinct from Audi's A1 (USD20,000) or Mercedes-Benz A-Class (USD20,000). Deduct them and the advantage will become hopeless for BMW's competitors. The A1 is a direct competitor to Mini but not BMW, and if we follow your logic, we should consider VW Golf as a premium vehicle as well, but it isn't so in real.

[CalvinS63]

BMW's cheapest model is $29,000 whereas Audi's is only $20,000. And also, I'd rather have an A1 than a 1-Series because the BM is the ugliest thing since the Porsche Cayenne. I said that you fool. The A1 is direct competitor to the Mini NOT BMW. The VW is far from being a premium vehicle. Audi use the same outline as the Golf and then give it Audi flare and polish to make it 10x better. You need to get a grip. I'd honestly rather have a Merc than a beamer. Fact!

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

Well that's your opinion. As for me I'd choose the weakest 1 Series over the best car in the Mercedes lineup. FACT!

[CalvinS63]

So you'd rather have a standard BMW 1-Series diesel over a growling 6.2 litre V8 AMG SLS with 563 triumphant German horse power teamed with brutal rear wheel drive and state-of-the-art launch control? I think someone's been a naughty boy and taken awfully strong drugs because you're just being ludicrous!

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

Sure I would since the BMW badge is much more prestigious to me.

[CalvinS63]

Well you must be on crack. Apart from the sales figures, what do you like so much about BMW?

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

Everything. BMW offers the best combination of comfort, luxury and performance unlike the others as well as the best driving dynamics and handling within its class. And reliability is at the top. Hence BMW's market leadership. Your opinion is just your subjective one. So live with it.

[CalvinS63]

Mercedes is more comfortable than a BMW. Audi is more luxurious than a BMW. The A6 is faster to 60 and has more power, so I don't know what you mean in terms of performance? BMW's are 5x more likely to break down than any other German car manufacturer. So, I think you've just been owned there. The only reason people buy BMW's in because they have sport driving dynamics and great handling. Audi and Merc have all that plus the luxury, refinement and comfort values.

[CalvinS63]

The man on the video above states that "In terms of sportiness, the A6 turns the tables of the BMW and OVER TAKES IT". Also, the Audi is cheaper, more economical, 0.4 seconds faster to 60. Even though the Audi is actually heavier it manages to do that. So, I think a giant "FUCK YOU" is in order.

[BabkenBMW]

@CalvinS63

In fact Audi is about 100kg lighter, kid, and that gives it some advantage but not so much to overtake the 535i. And now clarify your last sentence.

[Tobeit]

@CalvinS63 some people do not like to drive a car that looks just like any other Audi. They are good but all look the same plus never forget that you are sitting in a VW.

[MUSHROOMCOLLECTOR1]

@CalvinS63

Because when you see the engine you see the volkswagen sign - case closed

[seanzal]

@MUSHROOMCOLLECTOR1 Total Rubbish. Audi manufacture their own engines which may be shared with Bentley/Lamborghini/VW engines. All have differing outputs and powers. Anyway, the longest running engine in the world is not Audi, BMW, or Mercedes...its a VW.

[montoya233]

@CalvinS63

Because Audi is the most Boring car that I ever driven and Owned, and will never ever buy one again, I would buy a Skoda or whatever but never an Audi..

[8lfc4ever]

what an uggly exterior from bmw

Audi all the way

bmw 535i, manual, rwd

thank you very much.

[Andrea1491to]

why did they use the old 350 engine?

[MrFrankieFiggz]

BMW should be getting scared...Audi has now beat them out in 5 of their main models

[dufferego87]

@MrFrankieFiggz right!!! now there is only 1 hope remains for bmw............THE M5 F10

[MrFrankieFiggz]

@dufferego87 And that is one epic car.....right now the E63 AMG is best, M5 F10 will soon be once all the reviewers take a spin, then the best for last...Next gen Audi RS6 =)

[dufferego87]

@MrFrankieFiggz ikr it sucks that rs6 hasnt shown up in us markets for a long time:(

[MrFrankieFiggz]

@dufferego87 I know its a shame. I was pissed when the current RS6 with the V10 twin-turbo didnt make it here....fastest production Audi ever made

[dufferego87]

@MrFrankieFiggz i wish this new designed rs6 avent or sedan will show up in north america this time. also wish more powerful engines like m5 did but keep the v10.

[MrFrankieFiggz]

@dufferego87 well unfortunatley all the german auto makers are going for better fuel economy new m5 has a v8 TT more HP and torque then predicesor, same with audi in there new S models, i think for better fuel economy Audi should keep the V8 TT's in there S models and do V8 Supercharged in there RS models

[dufferego87]

@MrFrankieFiggz i agree. i prefer supercharged engine to turbo charged cause i hate turbo lags so much. but we will have to see about the m5 f10. i've read in topspeed web site that the new m5 can go 0 to 60 in 3.7 sec. thats impressive for a heavy luxury car.

[MrFrankieFiggz]

@dufferego87 3.7?!?!?! no way i cant see a big huge sedan like that getting to 60 in the amount of time an R8 V10 can. Every review i saw was 0-60 4.4 which is still insane for a huge car like that

[dufferego87]

@MrFrankieFiggz im pretty sure dude. you can go to topspeed.com and type bmw m5 f10. and yeah even bmw said that m5 can go from 0 to 60 in 4.4. then, a test driver from car and driver test drove it and manage to get 3.7. even bmw was surprised. it is amazing

[n8neiTen8n]

@MrFrankieFiggz The new M5 has lower power, 2 cylinders less, RWD, and it's faster than RS6 :P

[FranklinnBash]

so it's a what's cheapest competition?

[Amidat]

@FranklinnBash - i guess you missed the review of each ride.... the only thing the other two cars did better than the Audi was their ride was softer... the Audi did everything else as good and/or better... and it costs less.... that's a win in any book (even if you looked at it cost neutrally.

[rms1163]

Yes the Audi is lovely - especially while waiting on the side of the road for roadside assistance after it breaks down. HORRIBLE reliability and initial quality except for the interior.

[Amidat]

@rms1163 - you do realize that Audi's are more reliable nowadays than BMW's right??? Especially in Europe....

[jaguar123987x]

BMW, always the strongest pimp, who slaps with his purple pimp hand in da FACE!

[seanzal]

I've driven Audis for the past 10 years. I'll never buy another brand.

If the Germans think Audi is the best of the 3 brands then they can't be wrong. Keep up the hard work Audi. Audi All the way!!!

[MrFrankieFiggz]

@seanzal This comment is the best

[marksjersey856]

@seanzal wicky wicky woo!

[abhishek72554]

@seanzal in branding mercedes benz stands above bentleys n along with rolls

[JoeCaliforniah]

@seanzal coz u have no money to buy bmw or merc. audis are always cheaper alt for people like u

[BabkenBMW]

@seanzal

That's why BMW hopelessly beats your inferior Audi in the premium market.

[plutoamun]

I'm proud to own an Audi, I always wanted something different.

[solleticara]

BMW THE BEST BY FAR ! :-d

[republicfalcon]

the only reason the xf and es are not in here is cuz jaguar doesnt have a siginificant enough market share (even though it is the best) and the es is a cheapo, boring version of all "luxury" midsize sedans

[rkeondre]

@republicfalcon the es is not in this class the gs is

[republicfalcon]

@rkeondre the new gs is even worse

[xicot86]

Jaguar have a much better design

[plutoamun]

@xicot86 Sorry but nobody gets the chicks like the German wheels.

[xicot86]

@plutoamun Ask a girl what car is sexier a A6 of a Jaguar XF

[visky007]

@xicot86 They wont know the difference...

[88Mitsuomi88]

@plutoamun you can keep your girls if you get them with your car LOL!!!! I tend to use my own personality and style to make them mine.

[Amidat]

@plutoamun - I love German cars - but not because they can get girls. If a guy needs a certain car to get a girl then he has another problem.

[swunt10]

@xicot86 jaguar have much better prices ;)

[robbyjai]

citroen ???????? your kidding me right ?? its not even in the same class as these three german luxury car makers!!!!!! citroen wishes it was as good as these 3

[matthewdaniel1000]

I think they're all great vehicles but I also think Citroen is more comfortable.

[IchLiebeMeinE38]

Excellent cars. One can never go wrong with any of these three.

The exterior and interior design of the auto from München is the most pleasant to the eyes.

[von32897]

Audi has come a long ways. Great for the brand. I love Audis.

[8150shaf]

@von32897 Audi cannot compare to Mercedes and BMW in sales though. For example in 2011 (Beginning till November) Audi sold 104,906 units in the USA. Whereas BMW sold 221,073 and Mercedes sold 234,473.

I'm not saying Audi's are bad, its just the other two are more widespread. Quite understandable for Mercedes because they effectively produced the first modern automobile.
