Hello everyone. I've been surfing the site for a while now and decided to join since I'm now in the market for an Audi. My vehicle history is vast and I currently drive a Lexus GS modded. But I miss driving manual soo much. I want a sport sedan that handles good and of course looks good. An Audi will offer that for me, so here is my formal introduction. I plan on purchasing a 00-02 S4 or 02+A4 3.0 AWD. My GS is also for sale so if anyone out there knows someone that needs a good reliable vehicle please refer them to me [up]
Here are some pics I recently took with my SLR..

nice GS bro and welcome.
i hope you're gonna get a B5 S4.
and if you decided to get a (02+)B6 a4, i say go with the 1.8T or 2.0T B7.
why? correct me if i'm wrong but i'm sure you will be modding it later down the road, and engine performance wise there are not many parts out there for the 3.0, cept for a SC.

WOW! Looks like the 3.0 isn't a popular or I should say recommended choice. I guess I will stay away from it and lean toward the 2.0. Thanks guys for the info!

What should I look for when I go to looking for a 2.0 or 3.0 or S4? Anything major I should ask the seller? What condition should the turbos be in? Any additional info would help alot, thanks!

kievskiy I was thinking of doing the JDM swap and still thinking about it. I know an importer in the LA area that has a Aristo front clip complete with motor, harness dash etc etc for cheap. I also know a shop that will install it runing and everything. Just hate the down time.

Welcome to AZ!
Your GS looks clean!! I was debating about the GS or the A4 before I bought my car.
You will definitely miss all the extra room the GS have comparing to the A4 if you do make the move.

AudiA4Style Thanks bro, I was thinking the same thing. Guess I should go and test drive one. But with the AWD and turbo with a blow off valve and the handsome looks. I'm sure that will make up for all that.
Your A4 looks good btw
