[s-cars] A6 opinions plz

[bill mahoney]

Folks 
I am considering a 96 A6 to replace der durn daughters late great 93
Legend (totalled.)
This car has 128K and spent its first four years in FL.
It's fwd only (I think) and appears from pics to look excellent (
though showing the usual stock jacked up look,) but I have heard the
2.8 autobox is uhmmm slowww, which could be good for her?
I could steal parts off it;) 
Whaddya men think?
Thanks much ... in advance.
Cheer's
