Looking Into Buying My First Audi

[princessblndy]

Hi, Im looking into buying my first Audi in the early summer. I want a sedan with quattro but i was wondering what model or year seems to be the best. S4 sounds good too me, are there any years that are better than others? I heard about the Rs4 and rs3 but wasnt sure if they made them in a sedan, or if they were truly worth the price difference from an a4 with some mods. Please help!

I don't think the RS3 nor the RS4 are sold here in the US. But for smoking most cars out there the $15K you'll spend over the 3.0A4 is well worth it.

Princess, if you're in Jersey, let me know before you buy your car. I have a friend who runs two dealers in the Morris / Somerset county area. Got me my S4, 5k below asking price. (All options). You can't go wrong with the S4. Yes the RS4 is coming out this spring (maybe) definitely in time for 06'. However the S3 is a hatchback style which is nice, but I don't think it will make it to US shores. The RS4 will have the same engine as the RS6, a little tuned down, but will be available in 6 Spd manual, an option not available in the RS6. That is truly the only reason not to buy one (RS6), if you're like me that is.

Shop around, shoot me a note, and maybe my buddy can help you out. They aren't moving the S4 right now, and have amazing deals on them, so you should be able to do pretty well regardless.
