e90 325i vs. audi a4

Zaman250 · 06-03-2010, 09:21 PM

We own a e90 325i '06 w/ 40k miles and an Audi a4 2.0t (non quattro) from 07' with 20k miles. We've been curious for a while about the performance differences between these cars. How do they stack up against each other statistically? Who would be able to tell me the major differences in times and statistics of these cars or lead me in the right direction been searching but very little data on a a4 2.0t without 4 wheel drive? anyone?

DAMN! You own them both, line them up and tell us how they compare!

haha i personally don't own the a4 but i'm driving it at the moment, its a relatives. And she's not too fond of trying. I went against our a6 4.2 from the 2008 but that just wrecked my car, so I'm curious about the 2.0t on a 07 a4. Any sites?

I believe the 2.0t has like 207hp and 200ftlbs. However with a tune alone you can get around 250hp and 300ftlbs. I use to have a 2.0t GTI with the APR tune and intake and it was pretty quick!

2.0T is a very nice engine in terms of performance (for 2.0l) and fuel economy.

but I would never own a FrontTrak........its Quattro or no Audi

0-60 those 2 cars are probably equal, but BMW would have MUCH better handling. its FWD vs RWD.

Technically FrontTrak is faster then Quattro, but in a real world it the same or maybe Quattro is even faster.

my thoughts excactly when I'm flooring it I feel a bit more response from the throttle faster in the A4 but the 325i seems to have more power. Also when full throttle in the A4 i have to keep the steering wheel stable where was the 325i is less work and has more grip to the road from my observations
