my girlfriend got her 99 A4 z28 for $7000, and at 135,000 miles.
looks just like your car, just without the ground effects and the rear panel spoiler addon.
her car makes me want t ops even more

ahh well there ya go, I'm looking at lower mileage cars. I mean my LT1 has 106,000 on it right now and I want an LS1 with less than that on it, so it makes sense now that they're all priced through the roof. Oh well, I guess once I get some money I can start looking for something affordably priced.
Hopefully I don't get annoyed at the test drive and keep the LT1

I have both, a stock 99 LS1 A4 Formula, and a LT4 "Hotcammed" 96 LT1 M6 Z28. The reason the formy "feels" slower is the factory stall, and damn 2.73 gears... Well that is till the 96 is put back together

I do have to say, i almost bought a 98 T/A before i got my hawk, and the LT1 felt alot better than the LS1... To me it seems like the LT1 can do a little more with less power than the LS1's can... just what i have seen with mine and a few of my buddies... I would love to have an LSx car, just seems a little easier sometimes to deal with things... ex-> no damn opti to **** out

One more thing, besides a little more power, and no @@!@# opti-crap- the LS1 is all aluminum- that's gotta save a couple lbs. over the front axle of a basically nose-heavy car- anything that adds lightness is good, in my book
I've owned both, like them both- the LS1 is deceptive, though- sneaky fast- as it spins faster and faster, instead of running out of power, it gets stronger. Up around 5 grand or so, sometimes the tires loose traction- damn thrilling, but, by then, you're moving pretty good. I don't mind a sideways launch, but getting sideways at 70 is a little too much fun- I find myself always anticipating it, now, and getting ready to jump off the gas- wierd when you are trying to take off fast to heve to be so quick to lift-
maybe the answer to the soft take-off is a bigger stall- I already swapped a 3.42 rear in from a WS6 to get rid of the 2.73 stockers- only GM would beuild a sports car with that back axle...
