Default A6 model year change

Does anyone have insight as to planned re-design of current A6 model? I know new trannsmission will be introduced in next few years but cannot seem to find any information as to whether the general body style will get a re-work anytime soon. Hoping it doesn't - currently own A4 and thinking of A6 as third car.

Default If I remember what April said about this,

Audi's usually go 6-7 years before a complete re-do. This would mean '03-'04. I think A4 is new for '02 and they came out as '97 models, so maybe '03 seems likely for the 6 which was intro'd as a '98. Anybody else?

My recollection is the same. Minor facelift in 2002, new model in 2003 or (more likely) 2004

A4's came out as '96 models - I bought one in Jan '96. (Pearl was only $400 extra!

I'm so humiliated. That would mean a new A6 is more likely for '04 then.

No, that's my brain freeze, not hers. If she did I don't remember.

Default Facelifted Passat will come in November here in Europe. Maybe A6 in 2001.
