Looking for a car for son ive narrowed it down to basically either a B5 A4 or a 1998-99 A6. What do you guys think? Also What do you think about that color of the A4 above? Looks really kinda boy racerish to me...not sure about it. Theres also a black one im looking at or a gold A6.

A little too bright for my taste. It looks like a color you would grow tired of quickly.

I think it would go along well with four popped collars...


Lol. I'm j/k. I just had to use that photo!

Definately not my favourite colour. It looks similar to Laguna Seca Blue...but it doesn't seem to work that well on the Audi. But beggers can't be choosy tho...I'm sure your son won't complain. So if the price is right...then get it.

I hear those B5 sometimes have turbo failure...have you checked around for their reliability rating?

Go for the black one. No need to draw unwanted attention from other teenagers on the road.
