    depends where u live? for winter the sti. If your lucky enough to have no snow or salt, then the BMW just my choices.

    bmw looks like the best bet for the next 3 seasons we do get snow which makes the sti the best choice however

    the 330 and the mini would be just about a direct trade....the subie and the vw would be some out of pocket....

    sorry forgot to throw that in.

    I've got a friend that will give you a great deal on an STI if you want to come up to Cape Cod!

    BMW getting tired, I hated my Mini S, VW is nice but auto only is a drawback.

    STI's are being given away because people have been less receptive to the looks/hatch/whatever. Uber-reliable, track prowess, room to pack all your detail gear and friends etc... in white please:D

    my vote is for the R32, because of my bias to vw/audi vehicles haha. but honestly i think the STi might be more fun, and obviously much quicker. you'd be surprised how much you can fit in the new MKV GTI's/R32's if you put the back seats down. i can fit almost all of the necessities for a detail in my GTI if i really need to.

    oh and the 330i's are turds in my opinion. i drive them all the time at work (BMW stealership), and they're not very impressive. nice cars, but eh.

    its funny you really don't like the 330 zcp package...

    the r32 i know I can fit everything in and its awd...

    ketil don't forget I have the rs6 nothing is going to replace that but the new one which the us will never get : )

    so no audi on this one was thinking allroad but nah...

    sti well if it was in the 24-25k range it would already probably be here but its 28-31 so $$$$$ is a factor....

    Nothing replaced, okey. Then I am with you! When are you inviting me over for a ride in the RS6? ;)

    What about Audi S3? Audi Q5 is awsome..

    drove the q5 great ride but not for me.

    we don't have the s3 in the states.

    Too bad you don`t have the S3. What about...hmmm..S4? or maybe a bit higher in price.

    nah I had 3 of them already : )

    2 b5's and 1 b6

    if I get anything it may be the new one but still nothing beats out the rs6.

    I would consider the rs4 but its too high for a daily that I would do mobile details in : )

    STi for me. I would think it'd be the cheaper vehicle of the four to maintain but I could be wrong.

    Audi"s are great! If the dealer wasn't 1 1/2 hrs away I would still have mine.

    maybe wait it out for the B8 S4 sedan/avant? im hearing good things, but the price tag might be not what you're looking to pay. i forget how much they're projected to be priced at...

    52k to 58k would not be good for me for a daily driver or one that you want to drive up to a customer's home.
