How are they "dull". Neither of the below are dull, unless you are confused as to what "dull" meansolv said:Both marques are dull enough for me not to consider either of them at this point.
They both just make cars.

olv said:Oh look , 1% of their product range! great examples. of course the rs4 and m3 arn't dull. but neither are they representative of the brands on a whole.
Boring car 'a'
BMW 318i
Boring car 'b'
1.6? A4
I'm positively exploding with excitement at the prospect at owning either of those joyous devices of automotive pleasure.

olv said:Yes if I wanted some kinda of generic four wheeled, internal combustion engined transport to move me from point A to point B, I would inevitably buy a BMW or an Audi as, it is my opinion that they are the best of the bunch.
Because the question was "Audi or BMW?", not "give a reason you think german marques are bad?"olv said:I don't see why my thinking that they are boring is such a cause for debate
Vertigo1 said:Well as I said on IRC the other day, they're working on a new 7-speed version of the DSG gearbox for their longitudinal engines (current DSG only works with transverse). If they could make one strong enough to cope with the RS4/RS6 that would make a truly awesome machine.
olv said:I think like many people, I really can't abide the image of BMW, certainly modern BMWs. The better driving dynamics of the majority of BMWs does appeal to me (especially in the case of the M3 CSL, I'm sure I'd have that over any other BMW or Audi) but the current perception of BMW and their drivers are a major turn off.
