Default Well, the time has come.

I'm picking up my new Audi tonight. Found a great deal on a 2000 Audi A4 Avant Quattro. Five speed, loaded. Black on tan. Beautiful.

I'll be parking the 90 and tinkering with it. Probably will pull it out in the summer to romp around with. I'll throw pics up on here tomorrow after I have the car.

It just got to be too many things to reliably drive the 90 and no time to work it right now (especially with no garage). Needs sway bar links arms, footwell flap controller (so no floor heat). Heat is poor as it is. Engine has a terrible hesitation in certain temperatures, passenger side headlight clip broke a couple weeks ago, so headlight jiggles. Lots of little things.

I'm thinking I'll pull the 12V out and either rebuild it or try and go 20V. I've learned a lot about suspension through this car, now I'd like to move on to the motor, but doing so requires another daily driver.

Default I'm kinda with you, I'm looking for a b6 avant

Wife wants an avant, it's because she is european i think... Must have black interior, prefer cloth but leather is fine, manual 6 speed is a plus, no green, no champagne, and not blue would be nice

Default 2nd.

UrS6 Avant is a hell of family mover.

It took me a year and a half of shopping to wait/find a black/black urS6 in good shape.
