A couple of possibilities come to mind:

1.  what does "lower miles" have to do with perceived "goodness" of the
car?  If you've taken good care of your Coupe Q, mileage doesn't mean much.

2.  remind your boss that you're a wonderful worker; one that s/he doesn't
want to lose for a silly reason like a car.  Get the company to lease you
an S6 or a new A4, and sell it to you cheap after a few years.

OK, so I'm dreaming ...
