I am looking for a 2nd car to drive about 60% of the time. Two cars that I am considering are:

2000 A6 2.7t 53k 1 owner timing belt replaced all records no accidents $15,000.
2002 A4 2.8 23k 1 owner lease return 6 more months under warranty clean carfax $20,500.

Anyone have any thoughts about dependability of either of these cars or which is the better bang for the buck or just more fun?

 

I would say The A4,
but do they make a 2002 2.8? or is it a 3.0?

 

That would be a 2002 3.0, what are you driving as your 1st car? You can't go wrong with either but bear in mind which ever you choose may become your primary choice of driving. If you want a reliable 2nd car the A4 would be the way to go.

 

I had a mind clog when I did my initial post, yes the 2002 is a 3.0 not a 2.8. My other car will be a 1996 Porsche 993. I don't want to turn that into a daily driver nor drive it in the winter.
