Owning and working on Audi's and BMW'S I can easily say the bimmer has a MUCH high build quality. The modern Audi's are nothing but a VW with a bit more plastic on them.

That and owning a B7 S4 is suicide. The 4.2 V8 is complete crap, the timing chains are prone to catastrophic failire. It makes the N54 look like the best motor ever built.

Euro timing chains seem to be more problematic than other brands. Chains on Japanese cars are indestructible as they should be. Euro chains last as long as a timing belt lol. That being said 6 cylinder Honda's and Acura's still have timing belts. The move by Honda to phase out all 6 cylinders will finally bring them into the 21st century.
