ok, so i've had my '01 a4 1.8t quattro ultra sport for a little over two years now. i love the car, but i have a feeling i may want to move up to an '04 or '05 pretty soon. my car just hit 100k miles and is in great shape, i have all the maintenance records for the last two years. it also has new brakes and tires. anyways, i know what kbb and edmunds say it is worth, but what do you think i could actually sell it for? there are no major issues with it at this time.

the car i'm looking at is an '05 1.8t ultra sport at the local stealership. i love the car! i know i probably shouldn't being trying to buy it right now since i just bought a condo w/ the gf, but every time i see it i can't help but think about buying it.

the car is high in miles for an '05, almost 70k, so i think that may be a bargaining chip if the time comes. i don't know if the tbelt has been done yet or not. anyways, they are looking to get 19k for the car. what do you think would be a reasonable offer?

 

You have tip or manual?

 

I would step up to a S4 if it were me....

 

it's a manual, my car as well as the one i'm looking to maybe purchase.

yeah, i would love to grab an s4, but i don't think the funds really allow it right now. for an '05 i'd probably be looking at about 28-30k instead of around 16-18, which is where i'd like to stay around if possible.

 

u can get an 01 S4 for less than that lol. 19 is a bit high. 16 is more like it for me. i don't care wut year it is lol. onepoint8tee is cosidering buying ur car right now lol

 

an s4 would be nice untill you have to fix it woo

 

There is no "ultra sport" for B5's. Just Sport. If you decide on a selling price, I might be interested if I can sell mine.

 

Thats not really a upgrade your just getting a slightly differnt body style. I would go for a B7 A4 and just ignore the S4 talk.

 

b7 a4 would be a bit out of his wanted price range right?

 

Yeah probably but what he wants to do is really no upgrade.
