    We'll no but it is leaps and bounds vs older cars. Audi is hard to beat for build quality and materials (or at least the s-line models I looked at were very nice) that said I think it would fairly compete with a lower spec BMW (I've always found them boring inside)

    Audi has always been the leader in interiors even with the base model especially comparing it to BMW. I do have to say that the S550 interior is indeed better than that of the S197. Some niggly things still bug me with the American cars that need to be improved on such as that stupid harness that comes from the trunk lid to the inside of the trunk. That is so annoying that they never thought about tucking it away properly. When I was at the car show that was the one annoyance that bothered me. Also that shit carpet and having a better (read harder) trunk floor can be improved on showing that they care. It just looks like ass. Even a KIA had a better trunk liner. Don't get me wrong but I will still eventually get myself a S550.

    Had to re-read last few posts a few times, I still think of Benz every time I hear or see the moniker S550.

    I agree. Hence why this will be in my garage in the future.
