The 2010 Audi A4 is the anchor of Audi's presence in the U.S. market. As its most affordable model, it's also the best selling, and one of the few Audi's available without the company's famous quattro all-wheel drive system. It's a great looking car, and an efficient one, too, especially considering its luxury pedigree. Of course, there are plentiful options, such as Audi's MMI navigation and entertainment system. Problem is, since it's a luxury brand, expect to pay luxury prices. Even this base front-wheel drive model is more than $32,000 including destination, and options add up quickly. For example, if you want anything other than basic red, black or white paint you'll pay an additional $475, and the $2,500 navigation and entertainment system is only available on the Premium Plus model, which costs $35,825 including destination.
