2003 s6 or s8.....

obviously the s6 has more space for junk in the trunk of the avant, though the s8 looks so damn good.

which one is more fun to drive...?

which one will last longer and has fewer problems?

I personally love D2 S8's, so I may be biased. The S8 weighs about the same (alum body,) but it

has 20 more hp. The S8's main issue is the transmission, just like the S6. A lot of the other issues are shared, like the expensive TB service and control arm failures. If you really want some in depth info though, you need to do a post on the D2 forum. They'll let you know exactly what to look for/expect.
