Why just pick on Bose?

Uhh, because BOSE is a common automobile audio system that is considered premium. We're not talking about furnishings or other brands widely available eh. Let's stop with this bashing though, it is off topic and I apologize.

New A4 Prototype Driven:
http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/...e-drive-review

agreed with all the talk about the bland exterior styling. interior is a huge improvement, but still not as classy as the benz, but much cooler tech.

bmw has a LOT to catch up with

curious to see the performance of the new engines in this A4

BMW is fine - it still drives the best. I would not own a Audi so that's where I am on it. The c looks a little nicer but does not have the bimmer driving feel. Bmw is all about driving dynamics.

Btw, I have Bose in my new Chevy and it is way better than standard fare, also tried on the new Mazdas and also very good. May not be audio-file quality but most owners are very happy.

Exterior is bland but sleek. The interior looks pretty good. Kill the damn fixed panel in the middle. SUPER UGLY...

That's about it though when it comes to the 3 series...steering accuracy feels better in my C300 than my wife's 2014 328i...weakest link for the F30 IMO.

At least Audi have been more bold with the paint palette than Mercedes.
