snackeyg Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 So I'm stuck on these two cars. Not considering price. Which do you think is the better buy and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snackeyg Posted August 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 The Audi A3 hands down. It's more luxurious, has quattro (AWD), and might be a little bigger That's what I'm leaning towards. And the low end model doesn't have steering wheel buttons. I hate how all cars have those now for the stock stereo. LOL I'd probably be all anal and be bothered by how I have useless buttons on my steering wheel. No xenon headlights but I'll probably just stick in some 8000k's eventually anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug118 Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 taking money out of the equation completely, obviously the A3. but if you have to take in the initial price, insurance, and maintenance costs, then the GTI all the way! 2001 Tahoe.

Initial price and insurance aren't that different actually. For what I want the initial cost is only 3-5000 more over the GTI.I don't really see that as a big gap. Some people might. Since the prices aren't that different insurance is nearly the same. I've gotten a bunch of online quotes. The only one that worries me is maintenance but I'm covered for 4 years with the A3. So by then I'd have money saved if I need it. I'd have to custom order an A3 there aren't very many of them. I'm not really sure how that works.

doug118 Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 you're purchasing brand new? if that is true and they are only $3k apart after warranty then go for the A3 but know that the A3 will cost a little more in the long run to keep going 2001 Tahoe.
