FOr many people, Subarus are more realistic choice than going for A4, 
especially the Legacy wagons in which A4 does not currently offer. I 
recently convinced a cousin of mine that he will not like SUVs due to bad 
gas milage and horrible highway stability. He decided to go for Outback 
for the spaciousness to move ass (among other things) in which Audi A4 
does not (and A6 Avant was just out of his price range).
