Default Humm, 2005 S4 Avant or 2007 A4 Avant 2.0T. Big decision...

2005 S4 Avant (silver) with 25000km ($600/month) or a new 2007 A4 Avant 2.0T ($500/month) with the color and options that I want. The difference is $100/month and insurance is almost the same with a $10max difference. Both with a $20 000 down for the lease of 4yrs.

Default What's happening to your A4? I'd go 07 A4 for the warranty and options/colour you really want.

Just think, the 100/month savings will buy a chip in less than a year.

Warranty for the 2005 S4 is until 2010. To be honest my A4 (B5) is getting old.

Do you need the power or not? That is the question! Personnaly the 2.0T would be just fine.

Default Ed go with the 2.0T . its an amazing and pretty quick car

Make sure you get the s-line though to have the extra goodies. Afterwards you can revo it and put some nice wheels and your done for a while :-)

I will change these: suspension, exhaust, revo her and stick to my 18" BBS. No need for the S-Line.

Default tough decision I'd say too...

The B6 avant is soooo nice ! But thinking about the B7 with its cheaper payment, color & options choice, I'd say you would be better off with this one. Power is the other thing, 2.0T and S4 ain't the same thing... but the chipped 2.0 would be just fine I think.

Oh but if you take the 2007, don't take it red or white, or I'll kill you :P

Default Have you driven them? The 2.0T is a wonderful engine - from my

...brief experience in a A3 2.0T DSG - but an 8-banger S4 is in a whole other ballpark. If you're one to never be happy with more than enough power then you know what the answer is. However, remember its $100/month more + $100 more per month of gas, assuming you're an average driver.
