beater for equ
I need something to complement the sheer awesomeness of the Cayman (and well spare it from salt and bad weather/roads). I want some luxury and possibly awd so I think it will be an audi. I'm also not going to do crazy miles on this (probably 3000 - 6000/yr) so it doesn't need to be low mileage. I would like it to be reliable though.
1. 98-01 a4 2.8qm. The good: Had an 00, liked it, has lumbar. The bad: Now it's a bit dated, seats are really flat. The clutch sucked, maybe still does. Likely price $8 - 13k. 2. 03 a4 3.0qm. Will drive soon so no comments. Seats seem better, cpo available. Probably too much money for my needs. Likely price $21k. 3. 92-95 ur-s4/s6. A classic so it's cool, 5 cyl 2.2 turbo said to be really reliable. Good torque. Have never driven it. Really really dated and low mileage ones are hard to find. $6 - 12k (for a pristine one). Any suggestions or comments? Open to non-audis. Have thought about 87-91 325's or 95 m3's but I don't think they complement the 987S as well as these cars. Last edited by equ; 10-10-2006 at 04:49 PM. Reason: Perhaps this should be towed to the P.A. sub-forum, I was trying to post there. |
