Default Driving experience: Q5 vs A4

My family just bought a 2011 Q5, and possibly be looking for another car.
Our top choice is the 2012 A4 (when it comes out).

But I have some questions.
As far as the engine goes, they have the same (2.0T). So does it mean that the feel when u drive it will be the same?

And is there any owners of both that can tell me what difference we can expect from the A4 compared to Q5.

The feel will be pretty much the same, the Q5 sits on the A5 chassis which is very similar to the A4, they weigh "almost" the same, aside from the fact that you're higher in the Q5 there should be no difference.

I have both the Q5 2.0TFSI and A4 2.0TFSI Front Wheel Drive
There is a difference depending on the Audi A4 (Quattro or Front Wheel Drive).
As for the engine is the same engine 2.0TFSI. In the Q5 I have S-tronic gearbox A4 in the manual transmission. The difference is obvious because the A4 allows for a sportier ride because it has a lower center of gravity is lighter by 230 kg of Q5 which on the same engine is a very big difference.
Of course, the A4 uses less fuel when driving in the same way, a better view of the road from the Q5 as it is elevated
