I've owned two Audi (4000CS) and the A4 2002 1.8T (2WD). While my car was being serviced Audi gave me a 3.0 (4WD) 2002 A4. The difference is pretty significant if you drive fast and do alot of hard road cornering. If you drive that way then go with the 4WD. Other than that the 1.8T handles just about as well on the open road and does a nice job of getting you around town (no real difference). One feature you get with the 2WD 1.8T is the CVT transmission (REALLY like this feature). Takes some getting use to but overall I JUST LOVE IT!.

I bought my Audi 2002 1.8T used while I was living in Europe and had it shipped over (wanted US specs). I had it there two years and had it up to 130MPH (before the governor kicked in) on the autostrada between Naples and Rome. That baby hugged the road!!! I was very please with the performance.

Good Luck
