I bought my 67k mile, 90q20v for $10,500 from Jeffrey R. Zwart one year
ago, and have loved every minute of it.  It seems to be holding its
value pretty well too(for an Audi).  If you end up paying through the
nose, you will be rewarded with many thousands of miles of driving pleasure.

I live in San Diego, and during the fires, my q was called on for a little
4x4 duty.  Up a steep hill, in 5inch deep fine sand, I left behind a range
rover and an explorer.  When I got to the top of the hill, all the SUV owners
looked at the q in amazement.  This was with 205/50VR 15 Yok a509's...my bbs
bugatti's didn't get a scratch, and the ground clearance wasn't too bad
either.  Don't get much snow in Cali, so q owners have to make do with a
little dirt. :)
