Because this Audi is under my dad's business as a company car I am not allowed to be insured as a primary driver on it. Instead I am insured under my dad's 2001 BMW M3 and my premium is $2400/year. As far as gas goes it's maybe a little more consuming that the focus but you have to think of it this way. This 2.0Turbo engine is way more powerful than my focus. I will accelerate to my desired speed much more quickly and with much less effort so I won't be using as much fuel. The 2.0T engine won engine of the year because of it's FSI (Fuel Stratification Injection) technology. Basically the engine becomes that much more efficient hence lowering gas consumption.
