Not for a 1.8T B6...I really like the B6 Avant, but I'd like to wait for a B6 S4...

Default I have BOTH right now.......my thoughts:

I have both, and I have put a lot of miles on the '03 that we just bought. Overall....I still prefer my '00 for the time being since it is faster (chipped), handles better, and has a much cleaner look to it.

B6 has a slightly better overall interior than the B5, but not much better. The interior on my '00 is so nice and timeless. But there are lots of great storage spaces in the new A4, and the glove box is much bigger and has places for CDs.

The B5 has a better stereo: the B6 in-dash changer is overly complicated and it takes a lot longer to load/eject a CD. My B5 stereo is much better. Also, the switches in the B6 seem cheap: the power window switches seem CHEAPER in the B6, and don't work as smoothly as my B5.

The Ultasports look nice, but at $3K I think it is a freakin' rip off, and the package looks too aggressive to be on a 170hp car.

My wife is the primary driver of our '03 A4, and overall I like it. But, the price was waaaaaaaaaay too steep for the amount of features and low level of engine performance, and that is why I bought an '03 from an auction.

Right now I don't have any affordable sports sedan I can think of that would cause me to sell my '00 A4. Maybe if the facelifted A4 next year has some real ***** I'll consider it.

Default It's all a matter of opinion. Just because some people don't like the look doesn't make them haters.

Of course some comments are harsh. Take it with a grain of salt.
