    ^what he said. used to have one on my car - then i got smart and got coilovers. (granted i got my b7 sport springs for free)

    your rear might sag though cuz of the extra weight, but no more than a sedan does with one or two passengers in the back

    The whole suspension? The springs will be different rates for the sedan. Also, I'm pretty sure the B7 uses a different shock diameter (taken from the A6).

    I wouldn't do it.

    Fit is the least of your problems. That suspension was designed to handle the weight of a V8 up front. Why do you want to put that on your A4?
