Default Contemplating sellling the Audi for a GTI...

Any suggestions? I have a 98.5 A4 front-trak 1.8t. K04, Apr chip, apr roll control, TT BPV, K&N Filter. Not to much done, but I'm starting to like the GTI more and more. Plus, liking the price to maintain alot more. Any suggestions, nays or yays? Any input would be appreciated.

Default Which years have a 6-speed? Also, is AWD the same as quattro?

I know that it is the same thing in theory, but is it available and is it the same quality/standard as in the Audi's?

Default GTIs don't come in any form of AWD in the US.

and the AWD that is used in the Mk4 platform is not the same as quattro used in the A4.

Default I dunno...

I consider the interior of my friends '03 GTI to be as nice or nicer than mine in fit and finish and his leather seats are a lot sportier than mine.

Default just keep in mind the new GTi with a 2.0 16v turbo is due next year...

i would wait to see if you like the new one before committing to the old one.

Cheers,
Sameer

Default How quick is your Front Drive??

I noticed you have a K04 and was curious what you have raced or beat in the lighter front drive with k04?
