That b5 still looks ugly...What is the guys other car a civic with a 7 tier wing. I drive a b6 so I abviously like them over the b5. B5s can look sexy but it takes more effort to do so than it does a b6. The interior styling of a b6 wins hands down though

B6 does have a very nice interior, the B5 is really utilitarian. Maybe they wanted people to strip the interior to cage them!

I like them both, The reason I went with t he B5 was because I was looking for something to mod and I found my B5 for a decent price. They are both sexy cars.

And yeah if you compare interiors... I've been in both.. several times. B6 kills B5... like hands effing down. No competition there

Ahh, B5 vs B6 the countdown!

ORIGINAL: cincyTT

you guys forgot 2MAJOR advatages to the b6...... MAP sensor and wideband o2.
00+ Recieved the MAP treatment. Which is why my 00 will run without the MAF plugged in. Widebands are easily aquired.

Sad, but true.

I think the B6 looks more boxy. Maybe it's the flat sides. If had to choose bewtween them, I'd probably end up getting a 3.0 6 speed w/quattro. Not because reliability or the way it looks, but because I could throw in a VR6 turbo and throw down 600awhp without a sweat.

Since I have a B5, I feel it's my duty to mention that the B6 doesn't get coilovers in the rear (they're seperate, even with the aftermarket kits), the front bumper is a complete pain to take off, it's heavier, and parts cost more.

B5 gets the AEB with it's badass head, less expensive and easily aquired parts, and BT kits everywhere.

PS- No matter what the B6ers say, B5's have TomRitt.

you do realize that the ecu runs of the stock wideband and adding a wideband to a narrowband car does nothing but tell you the a/f if youhave a gauge

Buy a clean B5 with thoughts to spend the kind of money you could have gotten a B6 for.... then roast B6's all day long.

P.S. all you need to do is tell a girl you have an audi... they dont give a **** about anything other than the name. Why do you think they like COACH purses?
