No way. Keep the GTI.
The A4, IMO, is over priced as is. The S line trim adds even more that in necessary.
You already have an Autobahn GTI that is well-equipped and luxurious. You'll end up disappointed if you make the swap, especially the huge price difference between the two for not that much difference in car.

Won't the A4 feel slow, going from a stg 2 Gti (even if the valve lift is good for 10 more ponies, it's a good bit heavier)? Think of the money you'll spend to make the A4 feel fast.

The *proper* upgrade path is GTI --> S4.
At least, that's what I'm thinking in 3 years.
Hmm, though make that pre-owned S4... those things depreciate like crazy.

Buying used 37K to 40K used auto
I wanted to buy a 2000-2003 M5 but bought a MK6 GTI instead. Why, because even a $70K car at a $20K price requires paying $70K repair bills. It's a fact. I checked with several mechanics and they all concurred. Even though the M5 is totally a screamer, at 9-12 years old, the technology of the GTI is worlds ahead. Still, the test drives of several M5's haunt me as it is just bad ass period.

exactly bro... i'd love one of those someday... but i love those V8's... even tho i guess the newer V6 SC are told to be better in a lot of ways... ive loved V8's since my 1968 Charger 440 big block i had in like 93/94, and will always love V8's.

oh and Op... if your car was anything but an autobahn.. then you might think about it some more.. but no way... no deal. it'll be slower on top of everything else.. why you think even he wants the GTI... cuz its the better choice............

My friends mom has a 2011 A4 that's fully loaded and its a great car. But I really don't think that its worth $40K. Still reasonably quick, but keep in mind your coming from a stage II to a family sedan. Hell for a couple more thousand dollars you could get an A6 with the 3.0 V6, and that thing has some balls to it.
