'Sup everybody I came across this forum before and I had to ask a couple questions about the A4.I'm currently looking at a '99 Audi A4 1.8 Turbo Quattro Sedan AWD for about $11,xxx with 70,xxx miles.With the turbo do you have let it warm up before driving?Is the A4 good with space for someone that is 6'2"-6'3"?I know to be effective I would have to go out to the dealership and get a close look (i.e. test drive and look it over etc.)but I wanted to ask you guys and girls first.

Heres a link and I think the KBB is about $12,xxx.

My roommate is 6'6" and looks pretty comfortable when he drives mine (that one time). The seat has a lot of adjustment up and down and goes pretty far back. The steering wheel also telescopes.
Best thing to do is go and sit in it.

Make sure to get a carfax report and take it to an independant mechanic before you get one. Also, the timing belt will need to be replaced soon on both of them, if it hasn't been done already. Cost is about $500 at an independant mecanic and up to $1000 at a dealer. I just noticed that the 99 has the color listed as being red.

If you do a quick search, there a few posts on this subject.
