My wife's daily is a 95 S6 Avant, very easy to work on... but I can see 
parts getting scarce at the did with the earlier models.

My daily is 2002 Subaru WRX, heresy on this list I know. :-)  Have to 
admit it has been the lowest maintenance car I've ever owned. 
Downsides:  Noisy, made of really lightweight "bend once" steel. Lawson 
and Hackl brought them to Gruppe-Q for some Steamboat driving, bumpers 
were flying and panels wrinkling in few laps. Upside plenty of ricers 
wreck them so used parts are available.

Still going to keep the LT-1Q for Gruppe-Q duty though, the 5000 body 
can't be beat for robustness in the face of some pretty awful snowbank 
moments.
