Talking Done Deal - 04 TL traded for 05 S4

Well, it is official!! I signed the papers and I will be trading in my 2004 TL (6MT + NAV) for a 2005 Audi S4. The exchange will be done Friday or Saturday. I was able to get a great trade in value for my TL. They lowered the price of the Audi enough that it was hard to say no.

The S4 is a CPO with 6,300 miles. I get free service for 4 years plus 6years/100,000 mile warranty. The TL currently has 29,400 miles.

Thanks again to all of you who offered comments and suggestions from my earlier post.

it is the B6. i found out that only 60% of the B7 is new. overall, the most important parts that i value the most stayed the same...the engine and the awd.

That sounds about right, that way they can put the TL on the lot for $29,999 and come down to $28k and someone will think they are getting a nice discount.

the S4 will be Dolphin Gray with Ebony leather.

i was able to bump the trade-in value from $23K to $24,500 which i thought was pretty good.

hey congrats on the S4. I have a 04.5 A4 3.0L Ultrasport which I love a lot. No regrets and no issues at all. I noticed that it has the 4 spoke multifunction wheel? Swap it for the three spoke if you get a chance and go for the Miltek exhaust. It sounds awesome!
