Auto Express: Audi A5 3.0TDI vs BMW 335d vs Peugeot 407 HDI - 08-02-2007, 07:30 AM

1st BMW 3-Series
2nd Audi A5
3rd Peugeot 407

"This is a very close test to call. What it boils down to is this: if you value style and a sense of occasion above handling and power, go for the Audi A5; if it’s vice versa, the BMW 335d Coupé should be top of your shopping list."

"Audi will be disappointed to learn that, despite its new platform, the A5 still doesn’t have a dynamic edge over the BMW. Yet the brand’s return to this market is still a success, and the new coupé has much to recommend it."

I think the 3 series coupe is more stylish then the A5 so the 3 series wins handsdown in my book hehe

I dont think the grey exterior combined with red interior suit the Coupé.
grey exterior - black interior = better
or
black exterior - red interior = better

True, Andreas, true. Or better still, white exterior with red interior...

I was never a fan of grey color on any car...

I knew from the start that the Peugeot 407 wouldn't stand a chance. From what I've read, that beautiful car is actually more comfort biased than sport and hence would get trashed. Plus the engine is pretty old by now. Still a beautiful car, but not as hot as the Audi A5 and BMW 3er Coupe!
