Hey guys so im going to give you some backround info. I am currently driving a bmw e46 328i, love euro cars and i am looking for a new one for shows and school, need something awd so i am leaning twoard an a4 1.8t quattro,

Depends on the year, check the model guide (under resources) at the top of the page. They started off under 3000lbs and got heavier thru the years.
