How can anyone possibly buy a used Audi quattro anymore?

<< I think of the allroad as a psuedo S6 avant with a six speed.To me the A4
avant is too small and the A6 avant is auto only so the allroad was a
logical choice. I would be very happy with an A6 avant with a six speed. I
am not sure the air suspension is that much of an advantage where I live,
but may be if it snows a lot where you live. >>


Another feature of the air suspension besides the adjustable ride height is load leveling when carrying massive weight or towing. 

If you do your own maintenance, working on the air suspension (parts costs aside) is really pretty simple and easy (pinch bolt issues in the rust belt aside that is).


I have heard of folks swapping out the air suspension to conventional and going back FWIW. When we got our allroad a little over two years ago I was seriously thinking about converting, but now after a couple years not so much.
