Hey guys,

I'm looking to make the switch from Japanese (Accord, IS250) to an A4. I've been researching a lot the past couple of weeks and because maintenance costs seem so high I was definitely thinking a CPO but I want a B7 A4 S-line and they're hard to find.

There's this '06 A4 S2.0T on ebay:

The Autocheck is okay but it's not a CPO. I tried searching for mechanics and inspectors close by but I couldn't find any.

What do you guys think? I'm from NJ so I can drive to take a look but I'm neither Audi knowledgeable or a DIYer. Would you trust anything not CPO? Any input would be great, thanks!

Hi

I also noticed this dealer that is located outside of Phila. What l found out is that he picks up his stock at the Manheim Auctions (dealer only) in Pa. He is also a very good under the hood.

His cars look awesome but again it's a digital camera so a lot can be hidden.

You will get the balance of the existing warranty and then you will have to get an extended warranty which is very pricey.

Audi has us by the you know what's in this price range. The CPO saves you approx $2500/$3000 on the extended warranty and they have a special financing deal between .09% to 2.5% which can save you a bundle.

So the question is what do you really save??

Hi

I stopped by this dealership on Saturday only because l wasin the area and believe me l was really taken back by the condition of all of his vehicles, Audi's, Porche's, BMW and so on. He had over 150 cars there and all of them were winners.

I was so wrong thinking that he picked up his cars from Manheim. The owner of the dealership spends all of his time (3days a week) hunting down his cars and believe me he is quite anal.

And they give you a copy of Auto Check without asking if show any interest in their vehicles. It is done while you are there and dated the same day. They hide nothing from you and there is no pressure.

Bottom-line l bought one of his Audi's even though l could have picked one up at Manheim cheaper but not in the condition that l wanted.

And he was thousands cheaper then the Audi dealers even though you only get the balance of the existing warranty which could be anything.

This is one of my better auto buying experiences.

Eimports4less.com and the salesman's name is Roger and they are not on commission and you would be surprised how many cars they sell on the internet.
