[s-cars] Purchase '91 200 20V?

[Martin, Gary G]

I have both, a 94 S4 and a 91 200 20V Avant. I don't think parts
availability will be a problem. Performance..acceleration about the same. I
have an IA 3+ chip in my 200 and a Wetterauer chip in the S4. I'd say my 200
is faster.  Handling..S4 is much better. More rigid frame. The S4 is more
sophisticated, more features, better stereo, etc. I like both cars, but they
are very different. Much heavier feel of controls in 200, ie., steering,
clutch, shifter, etc. If I had only one, it would be the S4. Best advice
would be drive both, then decide.

I am debating on whether if I should buy a '91 200 20V or an 92-95 S4/S6.

I like the 200s body style and price, but I am concerned about parts
availability for this rare 11 year old car. Is this a valid concern?

The S4/S6 have better parts availability but higher prices.

Is the performance for the 200 vs S4/S6 similar?

Is saving money by going for the '91 200 smart or am I really getting a much
better car by going for the S4/S6?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Chris
