S4 is dull and muted
M340i is a great car

Honestly- my favorite car of this segment is the C43. Best sounding, luxury, steering wheel of the bunch.

And always - going to an M3 or c63 if financially possible will knock your socks off

Op - if you’re dead set on an Audi - the RS3 kicks the crap out of all of the cars above (beside M3 and C63) and is comparable cost wise to the 3 cars mentioned

M340i is a better car IMO

I just tested a m340i and c43amg. The c43 was way more exciting to drive and nicer interior. The bmw had really boring noise. C43 felt sexy.

More of an RS/S5 Sportback guy myself 😍. BMW probably drives better though and is the much newer model/platform

I’ve had both. M340i is more exciting and engaging. S4 is a phenomenal cruiser and I think the interior is nicer.

I’m a BMW and Audi guy, so I’d say you can’t go wrong with either, but the M340 is fantastic. More powerful, newer tech, just feels better right now. But I would get a S5/RS5 sport back over it because of the body style and higher quality interior.

If it’s between the Audi and the BMW then go for the beemer. It’s faster and more fun to drive. It isn’t comfortable though. I have one and it’s a pain in long journies.

The merc is going to come with a 4 cylinder for the c43 from the 2022 model onwards. So not my thing but the eq boost might appeal to some. In terms of tech the merc will have the latest and greatest, but not sure if they are that easily available given the shortage in supply and recent launch.

Looking for some sincere advice. I absolutely bombed a case interview today. I’m defeated. I performed as well as someone with zero preparation after over a month of prep.

Any advice of what has worked to help you change your instincts? I care more about building up my skills and self improvement than I do about doing this for an interview. TIA

Obviously a rendering but I wish VW would make an Arteon coupe. They’ve already got the A5 to build off of, and honestly I think it’s a gap in their lineup. Could be a cool car to compete against the new Z/Supra etc.
