A3 Sportback

Its amazing how much you can fit in this little 5 door.
And very stable to cruise at 120+ on the Turnpike.

Great hauler for any duty small and Big !

Can I play?

I don't have my 993 anymore (went water cooled) but here's my wagon. I was considering a CTS-V wagon (best thing out there IMO) but just can't stomach selling my E.

Excellent choice. Perfect size for my needs. Fast, great handling and a real looker. Mine is red, lowered and has 18" OZ rims. Looks gnarly.

I haven't posted this here, but a month and a half ago I bought a B7 S4 Avant and have been in love ever since! Wow, the V8 in that car is incredible. I am in awe of the whole package. So much better than my B6 in every aspect.I can write superlatives about the car for a day and not get tired of it.

Here's a couple of pics:

Ilko - you suck.

P.S. The 933 looks great with the RS Cup I style wheels.

I started with a 1998 B5 A4 2.8L, loved it but I fell for the 2007 B7 2.0T when it came out - my second Avant is my daily driver - Love it!

My 993 is my first choice on any given weekend!

^^^ You're scaring me. Parallel universe on cars. I have an '01 2.8 Silver Avant that looks exactly like your '98 and a Black 993.

Yep. Blink and Audi's probably going to pull all Avant's out from U.S. import.

Audi - are you listening?

B8 Allroad is last one standing.....

I have a few pic'c of the ole S6 wagon that I'll drag out for this post, 993tt brakes, RS2 mods, etc. Stealth... way-back 3rd row kids seat... sippy cups and all! Varooom, that RS2 mod'd S6 wagon could move..

Cool. Pics!

Looks as though you're also BBS wheel fans too.

They are, in the U.S. I've been told a handful of B8 Avant manuals came in. I would like to see one. No wait, I would like one!

Cool stuff on here.
