Cars just get you from A to B. Get one that makes you happy.
I've been looking at (but I'm not buying) Cabriolets. Googling Craigslist:
<site:craigslist.org audi cabriolet 1994..1998>
Returns lots of hits. Like this one:
<http://cosprings.craigslist.org/car/746071467.html>
For: ragtop, v6, simplicity of manual HVAC
Against: V6, auto, no quattro
My '94 100 S Avant was the best of my Audis (until my A4). I'd think
(hope) the cabrio would match it.
But you really want an S6, so go for it.
Unless you'd like a V8. Check the V8 email archives for "DaveC's V8 5-speed FS".
All the hard work has been done.
