Default New to A4s (Your opinion matters)

First post, what's up?

So, I currently own a v6 Tiburon and I'm looking to upgrade to a 4 door car. I'm getting to the age where I need to start thinking about kiddy seats and my little coupe just isn't going to cut it anymore. I've read through these forums all day, searching and researching as much info as I can pull from these forums. I still have a few general questions though, and I've seen mixed opinions on the topics when I search through threads.

I know that speed isn't the top priority for most A4 owners, so I'm not expecting to break any records or anything. But, I've been wondering if it's realistically possible to get a 1.8t into the 13's in the quarter mile. I know I've seen videos of A4's running 10's and what not, but I'm not really going to be headed that deep into it. I still want to maintain the luxury of the car and I won't be ripping apart the interior.

Other then the obvious mods to go alongside a big whp turbo setup and chips, how much boost are you looking at to get your car into the 13's...or really, even the 14's?

I've read that the older models seem to be quicker than the newer ones. I'm sort of thinking about 2002-2005, as I like their appearance the best. Although I read that the 2001 may be a lot faster? I also think that I'd prefer the Quattro over FWD, even though the FWD one seems to be quicker?

First and foremost I want a nice ride that I can be proud of (haha Hyundai). But I'm a firm believer that you can never have too much horsepower! What are the average A4's sitting at for whp and 1/4 mile times? Searching the forums isn't reliable as people say everything from 16-11 seconds.......but really don't list what mods you'd need.

Thanks in advanced to the guys that help me out.
