     about selling - Am I crazy?

Jason, you're crazy.  Or maybe it's just which flavor of chocolate do you 
like best?  If you like small, nimble, fun-to-drive, with great tossability, 
the new A4's are a hoot.  I'm strongly considering one myself (tho I think 
I'll hold out for an S4 version).  If you want the grand touring, 
super-capable,tho somewhat stodgy, cruiser then the A8 is pretty nifty, but 
at $65k a bit rich for most of us.  If you're looking for a terrific all 
around sedan that handles, can be tweaked to a fare-thee-well and is proven, 
timeless and capable in all conditions, it would be pretty tough to beat 
your 200   Maybe you should consider chipping it, upgrading the suspension 
with one of Eric Fletcher's kits and upping the old excitement quotient.

Just my humble $.02
