2004 Audi A4

I sold my 2004 Audi A4 1.8T CVT and replaced it with a 2007 TL-S.

Everyone I know with an A4 (especially the CVT's) eventually hit troubles both before and after the warranty expired. So I figured, with the 2009's about to be shown publically in a few months and before anything went wrong, it was a good time to move into something more reliable while it was the right season to sell. Though, there are a quite a few times I miss that car while riding in the TL-S.

http://www.buythisa4.com/

The TL-S is clearly faster, and has a lot more toys (though I added quite a few to the Audi), but the Audi was at times more fun to drive. Even though it only had 170hp, it was light on it's feet and the CVT was extremely quick in responding to "manual" shifts. I'm still a bit partial to the look of the B6 platform styling too...

Still, telling the TL-S to find me some Chinese food and then dropping most cars into the rearview on the way to get it is definitely good fun!

For my very short car history (I've only been driving for 4 years now):
1. 1993 Plymouth Laser RS
2. 1998 Ford Taurus SE
3. 2002 Pontiac Grand Am GT
4. 2006 Nissan Altima 2.5s
5. 2003 Saab 9-3 (Still have, thinking about selling it because it just isn't as fun to drive as the Acura)
6. 2005 Acura TL

I guess I'm a fan of blue as well, last three cars were blue.

I drove, and still have a 1996 Camaro SS with a 396 stroker motor and a 150 shot of nitrous. That car is still my baby but it's just too much to drive every day. I also have an 06 Range Rover that my wife drives and I pay for which is a bad deal if I ever head one.

Deal could be worse- it could be a Range Rover and a house for an ex-wife.

04 TSX Navi. I definately like the power and the smooth highway ride of the TL better, but the TSX got much better gas mileage and handled the corners like no other car I have driven.
