[A4] Prospective A4 Buyer

[Nathan Widmyer]

I was talking with my mom and other people and they mentioned that
dealerships are more willing to let cars go at the end of a year so they can
fill up the lot with next years model.

There are no other packages; they asked if I was interested in them.  I
didn't know what was in them so I turned it down plus I'm trying to stay
away from 40k because it's a little too much for my single income.  The more
I think about it, the better it would be if I save up at least until the end
of this year to maximize my down payment and try to get them when they want
my business more than they do now and as you say, I can wait for the 2007 at
the same time.

Thanks for your input,
Nathan
