Default s4 or a6

Just wanted some opinions on the car i should get, s4, or a6 27tt. The engine is obviously the same in both cars, mods arent too off either. Is it worth it tho paying the extra money for a smaller car, with stiffer suspension and nice racing seats? i mean i am 6'2 220 pounds, so s4 does seem kind of small

any opinions??

I'm a pretty big fan of the A6 2.7 I really like it with the right wheels and u can upgrade the suspension afterwards you will be ready to go

I've always liked the styling of the A4, but the first time I was relegated to the back seat of one I found out all about head clearance in the door opening (I have zero topside padding) and space once I got in. The A6 just has more comfortable inside dimensions.

thanks for the opinions, test drove the s4, not the a6 yet. Hope to do that soon. I guess the money i save i can put it towards the upgrades, almost 10 grand difference in some cases!

nice, thanks for the posts guys, hah yea insurance sure does frown on that, under my name (im 20) s4 would be 9 grand a year, canadian funds. and if under my pop's name, i think they said 5.

i guess you could look on the brightside, a6= widebody s4 :

i havent gotten a quote for the a6, but i dont think it can be that much, not like its an S or RS badge for them to frown on. But like in the case for the s4, itll be 9 grand on my own name. hopefully the a6 is 5-6 grand, thats a lil more affordable for me, like 4-5 hundred isnt bad, but when u paying almost 1000 a month, thats crazy talk
