B6 models are those produced after 2002. Most people prefer the OLD B5 style, which has been repeated many times in a number of threads , but not I. B6 all the way!

exactly, B5/B6 refers to the body style.

95-01 = B5
02-05 = B6

the trunk lid/taillights are the most distinguising feature to tell these two makes apart if your not that familiar with the A4
