Default The B5 Sedan was vanilla. The B5 Avant is 31 flavors.
...Not to mention, the chassis feels noticeably stiffer.

Default A different take on it--- - - >
I really thought I would prefer the Avant...convinced my wife to trade her B5 A4 in for a B6 A4 1.8t Avant...

I have two complaints...one, I can't get comfortable sitting in the B6..the center console digs in my knee...but that's a B6 gripe not an Avant... two, I can't reach the top center of the roof when I wash it...I have reach over the rails..annoys the Sh_t out of me. And I'm almost 5'11". Maybe if it was lowered...hhhmmm....coilovers for the wifes A4...gotta research that...

Default Mine's a B5 but...
I've got Stasis Tracksports aboard. I'm also 5'11 and reaching the roof is easy.
