Default tiny on the outside, huge on the inside.

It's actuially not much smaller than a VW Golf. The original Mini...those were small.

Default S4 Avant, or dare I say it a TT Coupe...as a daily driver...light mods only...

S4 is damn expensive though...that would only maybe get wheels as a mod...

TT Coupe in Black would get coilovers, wheels and a chip and exhaust...225bhp version is what I would get...and paint the grill black...

Default Yep, TT coupe would have also been on my list.

Too bad the 225 price pushes the 40k limit...too close to what the S4 was.

Default Yes just clean mods...

I'd be going towards a black stealth look...

Something like this but with a stock painted grill..

Default €54400 in Ireland for base 225bhp version = $67,853...

Makes the near 40k price in the US seem like almost good value...I'll be waiting to see when I get back to Oregon maybe pickup a used one...

Default Everyone is quick to jump on "bash the GM bandwagon" and normally I would...

But GM did not walk into Saab and say " OK, throw all the good stuff away and start making crap." The swedes are still the same, still using the same products, and still building good quality autos. GM may be dumb but they are not stupid and if they start to see the Saab marque fall, they will be very quick to get it back on track. They know where their bread and butter is. Just my $.02


Quick Reply: if you could go back and get something instead of ur a4 would u?
