It looks like the people who buy these cars new are old geezers like me, and the people who buy them used and are into modding them are younger.

Haha, I think that about does it. I don't know many people who buy the a6 to mod. Most just think its a good sedan. I bought mine from a writer. the a4 or s4 is a diffrent story though!

Yea but the bad thing about buying a car from an "old geezer" is that since they have no idea they got turbo's or what the right maintenance is so appropiate warming up and cooling down methods are not used. But I guess that's the downside to buying used. Thank god both my turbo's are still good!

Well using that logic an old geezer would not likely drive it hard enough to ever warrant a cool down, and by driving so slowly to begin with, they are warming the turbos plenty, since old people are very slow from start/off the line, will I drive slow when I'm old I wonder.

This old geezer went with a brand new 4.2. I was not interested in mods. BTW I get the oil changed with full synthetic every 5,000 miles and I had the lifetime transmission and differential fluids changed at 40,000 miles. But I don't live in Pasadena and to quote Sammy Hagar "I can'tdrive 55"

I have an honest question for the 18-25 crowd...

what jobs do you have/where do you work/how do you afford to own, drive, maintain and MOD these cars at that age?

I do mean that with all due respect - I am serious...

anyone want to weight in?

I'm 26 and I get paid $41k right now (just started with the company), with bills (I live alone), car note/repairs, saving for my retirement, and paying off these damn student loans ($35k to go!), I have about about $300 left a month to spend on myself.

It's rough sometimes... but it's worth it to have nice things (lived poor as a kid).
