That depends on your wants and needs versus the price and condition of the cars in question.

No one praises the CVT, so I'd stay away. But if you want feedback you'll need to post mileage, price, and some idea of option packages. At a minimum, try and get a service history and have it inspected by someone who knows Audis. Check for unusual tire wear and check each and every control and display -- and there are a lot in these cars. Run it up on a lift and check for leakage in the differentials, tranny, and rear of engine.

Not only that, but those are very different cars - just because they are both Audi's doesn't make that them all that similar. The driving behavior of them is very different - the A4 is the sportier contender but is also lower on the totem pole, while the A6 might be more relaxed but has a terrific level of fit and finish & lux for the money.

Audi without a quattro is a VW. Also CVT blows up a lot.
