Default Delima: I'm on a quest for a B5 S4.

I live in Oklahoma and Audi's are very few and far between. Let alone S4's. My strong preference would be for an Avant (I know suprise, suprise). There is a pearl white sedan that is local. Should I keep looking for an Avant or settle for the sedan? Also, is it common to fly half way across the country for a car that may end up being a big disappointment?

TIA,
Brent

Hold out for an avant. You will always want one no matter how sweet the sedan is.

Default 2nd.

I've had my sedan for 6 years now and love it most of the time. I hope to keep this car for my wife and get myself an avant. The search for an avant that's not silver or tip is proving to be difficult.

You could always move ... I can't swing a dead cat without hitting another S4 in Denver!

Have someone on AW check it out and use an inspection service. I did and then roll the dice.

Default I had to look for ~2 years for my avant. Having some patience, something will pop up

I'd hold out for an avant. I drove a 98.5 2.8 for 4 years before I moved to the S4 avant- and it's been a great switch!

ps- nice car. I had a few Mance pieces on my 2.8 as well!
