Both. :)

Having driven a former boss's '05 S4 Avant, the level of performance and comfort 
was beyond my expectation. Doing 60 on back roads in Maine, then nailing it to 
pass a pickup, and in an eye blink you're doing 80 -- OMFG. But I sure wouldn't 
want to foot the bill when some tidbit (like the HVAC) dies.

This one is young enough that you may get a few good years out of it. And who 
knows, it may be one that has not been abused. :)
