    Default Thinking about a (C5) A6 2.7TT.. your opinions

    I'm getting to the point where my current daily, a gen7 Accord doesn't seem appealing any longer. I wanted it to look mean and shouty but even with HFP lips, it doesn't come across as any. Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent car but I really want a bit more power without having to resort to pushing a blower in my K24.

    Anyhow, I've always had a thing for 2nd gen (C5) A6s and have been noticing slightly high mileage (80-100k) 2.7TT examples with a manual tranny go for under $7-8k on fleabay and trashtrader. Does anyone own this particular version? I'm trying to get info on reliability and longetivity. I don't plan to go mountain carving with it, and a job as a daily with some lightweight rims and a drop will suit me just fine.

    If not the A6, what else is there in the $6-8k segment. W203s don't have a manual (?) with limited aftermarket options and E46 330Cis are still too expensive.

    No rants and death threats please. I am neither a Honda fanboy nor an Audi nut. I'm a MINIboi.
