I Got A C6!!

Just brought it home! It's a 2005 base coupe A4 with 36k. I had been looking for months to find a really good deal on a C6, and I finally found it 80 miles from my house. I love this car. It drives a lot smoother than my 02 Z06 did.

When I bought my house (2004), I couldn't afford the Vette and the house both, so I sold the Vette. I had been wanting another one ever since.

Spring plans include a Vararam, Borla Stinger exhaust, tune, and a little lower stance, especially in the rear.

Congrats, they truly are amazingly fabulous cars.

Does it have 2.73 gears or 3.15s? Looks like it has the Z51 suspension option meaning it would have the 3.15s.

That's a great start, the car will respond nicely to those mods.

It's got 2.73's

It did get 26mpg on the way home though! The previous owner put the cross drilled rotors on it. I thought it was a Z51 too until I saw the window sticker.

Hey, that's still not too bad. Still a mid to high 12 second car bone stock in this air and very easy to make into a low 12 car with a few choice mods.
