Yeah, I haven't driven one yet, but the more I look at the B6 S4 the
better it looks :). When the B6 cars first came out I didn't really
like its chunky styling as much as the B5, but now that I'm more used
to it, I am liking it more. Especially when outfitted with wide tires,
big wheels and sitting squat like the new S4. I don't think I am a
position to buy a new S4 anytime soon though. My '01 S4 is serving me
well (more than well, actually).
One thing I don't like about the B6 cars, is the fact that the
oil temp and voltmeter gauges have been eliminated. I don't like
the dash illumination as much as the B5 S4.
No question about the superiority of the B6 chassis, though. I have
a '03 A4 1.8T, and even though it's no S4 you can definitely feel
how solid the whole platform is. The doors close with a really satisfying
thunk and the car has that hewn from a single piece of granite sensation
that my B5 car never had, even when new.
