When i was in the market for a car, I wanted the Audi A4 Quatro. But the salesman pissed me off beyond belief. He looked at my old beat up Nissan Sentra and just started talking down at me.
"Umm....Audis are very expensive. Even the entry level luxury A4."
Boy was I insulted. I probably make more money than that bastard. I immediately pictured all Audi customers as snobs, in my anger. I showed him the bank check for a car loan, $15,000 and a brick of $100 bills I had in my possession.
"You think I can\'t afford this car now? Bye!"
And then i checked out Subaru. The comparison was valid. Though the Impreza doesn\'t have the leather interior quality of the Audi, the car felt more fun to drive and the interior was more than adequate for me. It\'s not a go-kart for crying out loud! Also, there was less body roll and acceleration was better than the A4(I had to test drive my friend\'s A4 coz I felt like killing dealer).
We have our preferences. I was gonna go Audi....but that salesman really ticked me off. I\'m glad I got a Subaru. When I get married, my fiance and I will try to get that Audi I wanted. But this will be for her.
