[QUOTE="bmw4eva, post: 327609, member: 14423"] C-square, To be honest, the spare part cost of both cars is about the same.You see, on some parts, Audi is more expensive, whereas on others the Bimmer is more expensive. However, the thing that sets them apart is the fact that my e32 has more electronics,therefore it requires more repair than the Audi. For example, I spent RM400++ on the sunroof motor for my e32 when it finally stopped working, whereas I didn't have to spend that on the Audi since it has no sunroof. Another example is when the e32 experienced a complete failure of the instrument cluster gauges.Not wanting to waste time diagnosing, I decided to change the whole instrument cluster out of a half-cut unit costing RM600++.The Audi's instrument cluster is completely reliable since it is much less complex. Having said that, I also have to admit one thing; When I walk out of my house to go to work and see these two cars, I know which one I would rather drive.It is always the one with the Kidney Grille. The Four Ring is always viewed as a secondary car. My e32 simply drives better than my A6. [/QUOTE]
