A rather low mileage A6 2.7t has appeared that is piquing my interest
wrt the 16 year old.   >Wish you were my dad<    Yeah, I know 250hp  
stock.   >OGOLON(oh god oh lord oh no)<   Anyway, other than the
fact that it is an unappealing color,   >which is?<   it seems at  
first glance to be in
near perfect shape.  >noice!<   One owner.   >Noice!<    Manual  
transmission.  >Noice!<   No sport
suspension (can be added as a project for instructional purposes).   
 >Is this car for you?<
Extended warranty.   >good luck collecting<   66k on it now.   >Almost  
time for the fun to start... Loved that Rte 66 show though!<   Can't  
see any leaks or anything.   >just a matter of getting it home<
Can't see how an 8 year old car can look so good.   >Ahhh!  I'll bet  
it's a 2000 then?<

Anyway, what are the 'gotta check' items and things to look for and
consider?   >Hmmm where's that Audi check list?<   Typical brake  
upgrade path, I assume.    >uhmm 993tt?<   No APR at this point.     
 >Annual percentage rate?<
Probably Koni FSD/EIbachs for the suspension.   >Is this car for you?<

I don't really know much about thes cars, only that there's more room
under the hood than with the S4.   >Ahhh!  Easy to work on.<     
Pricing?  >A question at last;)<

Oh, he got a job today...busboy at one of the pseudo-Italian restaurants
around here.   >I've been a psuedo Eyetalian on occasion.<   This  
should be interesting, with gas at over $4 a gallon.   >How about a  
newer low mileage Golf?<
