I read or maybe heard that the a$$ clowns that use to drive BMWs are now driving Audis... I spent a half hour or so behind the wheel of my uncles c63 what an animal! The mpg really isn't that bad he was averaging 20 ish. This is a 2012 though... When I was looking at 4 door cars I was stuck on the rs4, 2008 M3, or c63. Top gear UK has an episode comparing these three cars look it up on Netflix or finalgear.com. The 2008 M3 can be had at a good price and a 9000 rpm v8 sounds epic! After looking and test driving i bought an srt6... lol Good luck with your search!
