Default went looking at an A3 last night with my wife and she wants this instead

<center><img src="http://www.motoweb.pl/tapety/pictures/normal/audi_a4_avant_2004_1.jpg"></center><p>she thought the A3 was a little too small and A6/Allroad/Q7 all too big so I'm psyched because i wanted the A4 Avant all along. going to be looking to get an 2.0tq, she wants the auto, but i'm going to keep working on her and talk her into the manual.

I'll post more when we're done shopping.

Default Good choice.

I thought I wanted an A3, too, but I just couldn't get what I wanted in that car (all the goodies, and a 2.0T quattro).

If you're not ordering the car, you may well end up with an auto... avants are so hard to come by.

Default It's nice to have the 2.0T with a Torsen Quattro

over the haldex as an option in your vehicle (or let alone the combo of both turbo and quattro in A3's for that matter)...I think you're getting more bang for your buck IMHO, although I'm sure the folks in the A3 forum won't be too thrilled to hear about this

Nice cabriolet by the way

Default i'm in no real rush so i can wait a bit for what i want

so after visiting a couple dealers tomorrow i will know a little better where i stand.

def. want the 2.0tq mt. premium, s-line, cw, tech, moon roof, pretty much the same setup you've got. although i have no interest in nav or sat radio

thanks - the cab was bought new from the dealers showroom floor back in 96, and still is tight and runs great, will be doing a 5 speed swap in it next year.

Default Get the Avant!

Great car. Lots of room. Personally, IMHO, looks better than the sedans! I tried the A3 (S3?) 3.2...super fast, but too small. And I hated the dash.

Default Steel roll bars integrated in the seats? Nice!

BTW, if you decide on the avant, I highly recommend getting the S-line option...pricey, but You'll enjoy looking at your new ride just as it's a joy to view your cab
