Default Just purchased new 2008 4.2

I went looking for a used 4.2 and came home with a new 2008 4.2.
Sticker was over $60k. Loaded except for sports package which I really wanted, but the price was just too good to refuse.

Car had 350 miles and purchased it for $40k, basically a 33% discount. I'm guessing that 4.2s are not hot sellers with the supercharges 3.0 out there now.

Anybody know where I can get a good deal on sport seats and which suspension to look at? Located in Dallas, TX.

I am looking at 2 similar vehicles:
- 2009 3.0 supercharged prestige, 1123mi; MSRP $57k, dealer asking $49k
- 2008 4.2 fully loaded, 20mi; MSRP $59k; dealer asking $46k
*both prices are initial dealer listing with no negotiation

Decisions, decisions. The warranty has started ticking on the '09. Both are colors I like. All things being equal I like the supercharged '09, however I need to do some more research on the 1k+ mi on the car (supposedly previously owned and they went for another model and not a demo). Also it seems like the '08 may be more negotiable. I am thinking of trading my '04 allroad rather than dealing with selling it independently, so I would have to see who would offer a better a trade.

Both vehicles are several hours away so I would like to negotiate remotely a bit and then close the deal on site.

Which would you go with? Both are beautiful vehicles.

Personally, I'd rather go with the 08 with 20 miles on it if you intend to keep the car for 5 years or more. If you're planning on a shorter ownership go with the 09. If you'd like to check out the 09 I can run a CarFax for you and you can see if it was a private registration or not. Just send me the VIN and your email address so I can send you the CarFax. Good Luck.

I just bought a 08 A6 4.2. It sat on the dealers lot since 10/08. Sticker was 61.5, I paid 48. I felt it was a great price for a great car. My warranty was punched 2 months before I bought it. Not concerned as I am likely to go through the miles before the time. I am also considering an extended warranty.
