(Audi even claims that it's as fast as the MT and offers equal fuel economy)

rb1, I test drove the A4 1.8T with quattro and automatic. I think that the vast majority of A4's here have quattro - I guess because of our climate here, and that people EXPECT Audi's to have quattro, so it'll be a hard re-sale later on if you don't have quattro. CVT only comes with the FWD A4 right now. That quattro was SLOW... the 1.8T engine was such a mismatch to the quattro set up.

18 year old + these cars don't really match up to be honest.
are you a girl? if so, the is300 is RWD. i'm not saying you're a bad driver, but a girl in a rwd in snow conditions can be a very scary sight.
not only is insurance going to be high, if this is your first car you should probably be looking for something that is used. generally speaking, new drivers tend to wreck their cars.
