Re: S6

[johnc@together.net]

In our area of the woods (Vermont/New England) a friend just bought an
impeccable '92 S4 w/ 60K for $19K and considered it a great deal - probably
could have fetched as much as $22?  From what I see around here, a low mis.
'plain' 1996 A6 could fetch more than $24k.  Low mis. cars tend to demand a
premium, a dealer up the road has a 1996 A6 wagon w/ 33k @ $27k.

Of course, we have a much higher demand (and population) of Quattros than
other areas of the country and that seems to drive prices.  Damn that pesky
capitalism.  Good luck on the search...
