I will take one of each.
I really want to get a neglected B5 S4 and nurse it back to health, tear the engine apart and get it back together with Frankenturbo F21s and various other fun stuff.

What are your feelings about the RS5?

I’ve never really liked the A5/S5/Rs5 that much to be perfectly honest.
The B8 A4 is my sheeeit, but if I wanted an Rs car I’d probably get an old Rs4 or Rs6/7.

I was asking more about the body style, but I agree that the B8 A4 is an amazing car, and if I were to go RS I would want a 7, or if the gods allowed it, an RS3.
IMO the A5/S5/RS5 really should’ve been a 4 door sedan instead of a what-ever-it-is.

I like those also, they’re just super rare in the good colors.

True, I suppose. I’m not a fan of 2-door versions of 4-door cars. Or even worse, 2 door versions of a 4 door car that was adapted from a 2 door car wanting to look like a 4 door.

I’m not a huge fan of coupes outside of like the Porsche 911 and regular cab trucks (close nuff..)
Good excuse to not have to haul people around, but sometimes you have to haul people around. That being said, I don’t think I’ll ever DD a 2d.

I love the appeal of a more “sporty” drive, but if I wanted 2 door and sporty, I would probably go hatchback before coupe.

They blow up a lot more (Torque converter). I’d have to have a manual one though. I’m not a manual purist, but it’s just one of those cars where it’s either manual or bust.
That being said, if somebody was like “Oh, I don’t want this car anymore have it for free” I’d be like fuck yeah.

Yup, I personally can’t do 80% of “hot” hatches. Including the Fiesta ST. I see zero appeal in that car.

Whatever you’re into. That makes sense though, with the ownership history that you do.

I kinda briefly considered it, then decided that I’d absolutely hate it because it’s not my kinda car.
Same thing with my current car, I can’t wait to get rid of it.

Coupe?
I know that Ze Germans have given up on sensible names but the A5 is a coupe.

So you're over getting a truck or is that after the move?

That’ll likely be after the move, it would be useful for the actual move itself. But who knows....

Exactly the same. Down to the last bolt.
Some people say there’s a different tune. I do not believe that.

i keep thinking mine is an A4 but its the A6. I have a bit more to move around than those.

Yup, haha.
Now the Allroad is an A4 though so that works.

Ok. A WRX is a monstrously quick car. Compared to another family hauler from the same era, it's crazy fast.
