I'd go with a TSX.. even though its fwd still a nice looking car with great quality and cheaper. A few friends/relatives have audis and all i've heard are problems. Make sure to get warranty like someone else said. BMW and Benz are always nice too!

well the a4's re sale is very good. My sister owns a 2001 a4 with the quattro and no problems at all. Up here in New England we can get some pretty weird weather and this car can take it!

My experience with audi, is that they dont hold their retail values well, plus road and track did a HUGE article in september that talked about how unreliable the 96-01 a4's were...HUGE electrical and transmition problems, among many other problems. Not worth it in my opinion because there is no warranty to protect you, in the event of something. I suggest the TL in midnight blue...outrageous...beautiful car...WOW....lets be realistic now the S4 is a killer in insurance, and well the x3 looks like a station wagon with bigger wheels raised a bit. Get an acura or a nissan, tell them to do themselves a favor and avoid headaches and get a good japanese car company, and if they want a audi, get a NEW audi. New audi are a lot better than the old ones...WAYYYY better.

And none of this... buy a old civic and then drop some 10Gs of mods into it and make a sleeper civic. The requirements are listed above!
