New here, looking for some help...

I currently own a 2004 Dodge SRT4, and i am looking to move up to a b5 S4. Can anyone give me some pointers on what to look out for with these cars considering they are around 6 or 7 years old now. I want either a black, nagaro blue or white one. I know the white ones are very rare, but i want one real bad. I have also read that the best years to get are either the 2001.5 or the 2002. So i'm not a complete noob here, i have researched a little, but maybe you guys can help me with the small stuff. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the link. I just want to make sure that i dont miss anything before i make my purchase. I want to be as educated about these cars as possible.

-- Find out what service has been done and what might need to be done to get the car mint and/or up-to-date - timing belt is a big one!
-- Test drive thoroughly - listen for overly noisy turbos/police siren, does everything "feel" right at speed/in turns etc? Tranny feel smooth?
-- Check for everything working (that matters to you)...heated seats, A/C blowing cold, all windows/door locks and the like
-- Look for general fishy stuff...accident damage & standard used car stuff
-- If you can, take to an Audi shop/dealer to check VAG codes to ensure there is nothing crazy outstanding (such as multiple O2 & EGT sensors etc) and look over entire car - especially control arms/tie rods/engine mounts

Take your time and be willing to walk (i'm sure you know this lol). Oh, and yeah the Casa white's are real nice, but you'll fall in love with whichever colour you get...

Best of luck!
