Thanks guys. I've been loving it the last few days. Good power and handling with great comfort. I did 100 miles today (Lancaster and back) and it was a breeze. I'll get some pics posted up when I get a chance.

Stuka: I have to be stopped to enter an address but I'm pretty sure there's a hack for it. Not sure if that counts as a "mod" because I promised myself that I would not mod it. I got tint put on today, but that's a medical issue

Super cool cars, and very usable. Two problems: they are very thirsty, and the resale isn't going to work in a buyers favor since they are out of production. Perhaps they will sustain that resale value down the line, but I would have a hard time staying confident in an Audi's resale that far down the road.

Still, I see a few cruising around Portland, and they always make me smile. A little Milltek love and moderate tint - you're in business.

Just so everyone knows, the OP decided on an Infiniti FX 45 and says he enjoys it

^ Yeah, I know.

This is nice, only problem: I wouldn't pay over $30K for this car . . .

Again, it's because a manual B7 S4 Avant is almost impossible to find.

It will probably go for close to what the guy wants.

Remember the VW R32? The dealers couldn't give them away new. And now look at the second hand market.

Or even the VW bus from the 90's, crazy resale again because of how rare it is.
