Default Difference between 2005 vs 2005.5 Avant???
Looking at a used Avant and was wondering what obvious features or trim set the half year apart.

Thanks

Default 2005 = B6, 2005.5 = B7
Exterior styling change, plus center console and other minor interior tweaks.

BTW, my '05 is for sale, see my sig.

Default Thanks...
Do both have the V8?

Is $38K too steep for 2005 with 7400 miles???

Default Both have the exact same V8. The B7 has 40/60 F/R quattro split on the manual transmission.
better nav by default, though that can be swapped into the B6. Different steering wheel, and a few other tweaks like rain sensing wipers, self-wiping brakes.

Default Same engine in both.
$38k does seem a little high. Autotrader average was in the $35.5k range last time I checked. Then again, that is very low mileage. I guess it depends on what that is worth to you.
