I have narrowed my new car to the 2001 S4 or 2002 A6 2.7T but can't decide with one to get.
THANKS!

6sp vs. 6sp? 5.6 sec. vs. 5.9 sec. Tip to tip? 6.3 vs. 6.6. Bigger difference in handling, though

that be the determining factor in your decision. While the cars have the same engine they have a different personality.

If you need the room and want a "stealth" sports car (with cheaper insurance) that is probably significantly cheaper than the comparable s4, get the 2.7t.

Otherwise get the s4. Frankly, you can't go wrong with either IMHO.

Re: What is the difference in 0-60 times (2002 A6 2.7T and 2001 S4) - with 4 adults in the car

We had a team lunch yesterday. I got to drive and three of my co-wokers came with with. 4 men, all over 6ft & near 200 lbs a piece, we all had enough leg room, and I still hit 60 by the bottom of the ramp.

I love the A6, perfect size speed, everything. Get the newer car.

I have never driven a S4 would a 2.7t with good coil overs and seay bars level that out?

You should be able to fit 2 front and 2 rear at least. Am I wrong?

Have YOU ever tried to sit in the back seat of a B5 (or B6) S4?? EXTREMELY tight for adults.

4 in might not seem like much, but my 8 yr old daughter is just under 5 ft tall and she felt cramped in the back seat of an A4.

I have a co-worker who has an S4, and I can fit in the back, but, with the front passenger almost touching the dash, my knees touch the back of the front seat seat,, just barely.

So there is room, but I wouldn't want to spend more than 20 minutes back there,, it is cramped.

Yes I have and that's one of the reason I didn't go with A4 (S4).
