We just got an Audi A3 a few weeks ago. My wife tried the A4 and decided it was too big. I think the A3 is slightly smaller than the Subaru Impreza Outback Sport that it is replacing.
We drive in a lot of snowy, icy, blizzardy weather (all of that just this weekend), and it handles great - even better than the Subaru. It also gets fairly good gas mileage (~27 mpg, so far).
We haven't had it long enough to evaluate the reliability or maintenance costs.
