Audi VS Lexus
 

Which is a better car: SC430 or Audi S4?

S4, no brainer.

S4

S4

S4 - Plus audi is a nice safe ride..

might wanna consider 330ci ... i found it alot better and alot sexier then s4, but s4 is very quick..

S4 allllllllll theeeeeeee wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! :Graucho

Damnt.. hit send too soon.. meant to say that.....


I was in fremont, ca near fry's and I saw a lexus get fucking ripped in half, it was doing about 45mph got hit by a mercedes suv, and spun out of control, hit a light pole, and the pole went into the passenger door, ripped all the way into the middle of the car, there was rips on the roof and floorpan, the dude got our stunned as fuck, I told him to sit down, all he was worried about was trying to tell him mom he crashed his car..

go with the audi...

You guys have got to be kidding.. better in what way?

S4 is a great car... and very fast ...but ...it's nothing like the Lexus Coupe.

Also you are comparing the S4 to a convertible.
I used to be a Lexus technician ....years ago :winkwink:

Toyota hands down will last longer with LESS maintanance.

Now.. the german car handling..that's a different story..but if you want your car in the shop for little problems once a month... then get the S4

You don't really want to compare a japanese car to a german one, do you?

S4, no doubt....

they are not competitors. the SC430's competitors are the SL500 and Cadillac XLR convertible - ie: other rear wheel drive, front engine hard top convertibles.

S4. Lexus' suck.

i fucking love audi !:2 cents:

Audi S4

I will smoke both with my EVO

i will own any s4 in my sc400 ;P

thanks for the responses guys, i plan on getting a car sometime soon but not sure what to go with, i want something with style, speed, reliability is most important, i'm hearing good things about Audi's ...S4 definately looks nice, RS6 is even nicer but shit they're so expensive

S4 definitely. Great handling, good power, looks very nice imo, although I would stay away from the convertible. About maintenance, its hit and miss, although I hear the new A4/S4 body types are little less hassle than the older ones.

Definitely go for the S4, just give each a test drive and I think you'll be making your decision easier.

I like my S4, though I'm changing it very soon. The lexus will have a better residual value, but it'll be less fun to drive.

not with a little bit of suspension work ;)

Fuck em, get a beemer.

I'm waiting for the new M5... it's taking soooooo loonnngg :(

looks fuckin hot though

bein 6'6" and 245 ILL take my Lincoln towncar anyday "Lincolns like fuckin drivin a waterbed" what movie is that quote from?

Beemers rock, I love my beemer and I'm sticking withem til I die.

It's ugly, but it has a 550hp V10 :)

Driving a Lexus is like kissing your own sister.

i beg your pardon?

Ugly my ass... thats a sweet car.

aggreed

Same excitement.

let me guess you grew up in arkansas

No, Jaguar owner :Graucho

blegh... nice ride but you can't beat the shit outta it... they break

so true... worst resale value also.

amen

I agree, but I have a 10 year old Lady Jaguar. I do all service on the car myself. She still beats the BMW:s around here, that's enough for me :)

Still beats the BMS in what exactly?

Speed? no
Ride? depends on the model
Reliability? HAHAHAHEHEHEHEHEHAHAHA

ahem.

Price? BMW is WELL worth its price tag, jaguar... no.

Jaguars lose so much value so quickly its not even funny. YES, they a sweet ride, but their electronics fuckup, engine fucksup... so easily..

Beemers are reliable and cost effective

:thumbsup

Most BMV:s around here has manual gearboxes. Thanks to Jaguars torque converter it's engine revs up instantly to the revs where most hp is generated and stays there during the gears.
That's why I can beat them at redlights!

Reability.
Reability is in my opinion very good indeed. Dont'n compare with the old Jaguars before Fords takeover. I have been reparing cars for many years, speciality old Triumphs and Saabs. We have BMW:s in the family as well, so I have some brands to compare with.

Jaguars are inexpensive secondhand. Thats good. You can afford to buy a luxery car!

Below my Jaguar now at 140000 miles with no problems!
Regular services of course.

I can't resist:

Arkansas Jaguar?

i'd get a Lexus

:1orglaugh

thats got to be the funniest fucking picture ive ever seen

Audi :thumbsup

maybe you should compare Toyota LC100 with H2 also?

S4 & this Lexus are DIFFERENT!

damn n00bs

p.s. jaguar is one of most LESS reliable european cars

Let me put it this way, my lexus with 160,000 miles on it, 4.0 litre V8 without mods rev's up to 6,500RPMS as easily as my old 2 litre 4 banger prelude, and still rocks the southbound 5 at 160 MPH without any engine mods and just maitinance... fuck all else, it may just be a toyota with leather and a new engine but shit on me, i'd only replace it with a 765iL ;)

You had many?

J D Power report names Jaguar cars as most reliable!

The J.D. Power and Associates annual private report to automakers, "Initial Quality Study", is a widely followed measure of vehicle quality. Recently the company released limited data from the report but not the full report.

The report found that the new Jaguar cars had the fewest defects and the 1999 Kia cars the most.

The Agoura-based company said it based the results on 41,004 owners of 1999-model vehicles. They were asked about problems found in the first 90 days of ownership.The study showed Jaguar has the fewest defects per 100 new vehicles - 110. Buick was second at 114, followed by Infiniti(ll8),Acura(124), BMW(125), Lexus(l31), Toyota(135), Honda (137), Cadillac (139) andChrysler (148).

The average for all vehicles was 167 defects per 100 vehicles.

The bottom of the list showed Kia having the most defects at 333 per 100 vehicles.

Suzuki had 299, Isuzu 242, Jeep 234, Volkswagen 223, Daewoo 216, Land Rover 200, Mit-subishi 199, GMC 199 and Hyundai 194.

S4 RULES !!!!!!!!!!!
