I hope we get some version of the 1 series here

. A S3 would be nice as well.

Interesting comparo, both are impressive performers. I think I prefer the Audi overall, with better exterior looks, relatively equal performance and better value for your dollar. Ironically, I think the BMW's interior looks far better than the Audi's relatively plain looking interior. But I would take the Audi for its overall package.

Thanks for the translation

To make the 1 series interior look good you have to spend thousands on wood and leather options. A3 has a really nice interior even from the base model.

Hmm, I don't know what the details are, I just looked at the pics that were posted. Either way, the S3 interior doesn't impress, but I still prefer it the car overall.

Hard to say. They didn't really select a winner but praised each car for its strengths and made it clear that although these two cars compete, they're quite different and on these grounds, they couldn't pick a winner.
