IMHO this thread is getting a little pointless. The A4 and the M3 appeal
to very different people. The average M3 driver wouldn't be seen dead in an
Audi although the vice versa isn't necessarily so.

They are both great cars which have very different flavours and its flavour
and price rather than performance figures that most people buy on.

In NZ a similar performing A4 (that's a 1.8 turbo quattro with MTM's 286hp
engine upgrade - using only ONE turbo Eliot) is about NZ$35000 cheaper - 
thats about a third less - and you still don't get quattro. That makes the
decision a lot easier. BTW we get the 6 speed Euro spec 320 hp M3.
