The '09 S4 is a powerful and capable sports convertible that's sure to deliver loads of excitement. However, before signing on the dotted line, be sure to test drive the BMW M3 convertible.

Plus BMW's M-line is arguably more popular than Audi's S. - U.S. News Rankings & Reviews

Though small, the S4 is a powerhouse. The engine is a 340 horsepower double overhead cam 4.2 liter V8.

Both have Audi's famous Quattro all-wheel drive.Compact or not, at a base price of $57,125 ($58,325 with automatic transmission) the 2009 Audi S4 is probably not the car the average family will buy for their high school or college kid, nor will it be the choice of starter car for most young families.
