Default Contemplating an S6.....

found an 02 w/ 36K miles CPO--price isn't too bad. I love Toyota's just turn the key and go, but more and more I'm missing Audi. It's not even fun to detail the Toyota......

S6 =s my wagon on roids....which I like. I might be making calls tomorrow.

Default I don't know how much a hosing that I'd take with a 3 month old 4 Runner...

with 2200 miles on it...but I might be able to work something with a dealer...who knows.

I actually get good gas mileage with the 4 Runner, but it just isn't the same. Since I found a pretty cool dealer, things might be a bit better.

Default But the S6 is such a heavy, understeering pig. You can't power slide around corners on the street.

Especially at under 3500 rpm's.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/other/msgs/5521729.phtml">Notice I didn't write 'drift'.</a></li></ul>

Default Do it! If a car isn't fun to detail you have to sell it asap! ;)

No seriously get the S6!

Default You can't turn the key and go in an Audi?

Exactly how do you start the Audi?

If the Audi is too complicated for you stay with Toyota.

Good to hear! You know you'd love the car - - but weren't your issues more dealer related?
