ive had b5 and b7 a4, the a4 is small inside. fits me well at 5'10 but not
generous. i love the bigger chassis cars. much roomier [a6, a8]. buddy is
6'3 and loves his new a6 - coming from a b7 a4.

cvt's are to be avoided across the board from what i understand. good idea
theINory but not in practice. i'm looking for something new too and have
shopped the c5 a6's. 3.2 is nice, auto is nice, can get em w/ low mileage
for well under 20k in an avant flavor. =) no manual is a bummer but im over
shifting. especially in a big cruiser. will find a long warranty that
covers the tranny.

altho i might jump ship altogether and get a.. gasp TRUCK. loved my ex's 04
4runner - amazing buggy. or a pickup, would be very handy for moto
trackdays. unless i can find an e350 4wd w/ 7.3 diesel for about 15grand
[yea right].

will be a nice stg3+ b5s4 with all the trimmings in the classifieds f/s
soon...
