Agreed with the comments about the bumpers, but the two-door look on a B5 is fantastic.

So who wants to make the first REAL coupe A4??? Maybe I should do a coupe version of my S4??? Now there would be some weight reduction/nice little winter project. HAHA

That B5 coupe looks ****. Its obviously not meant for the US market, its European. The body kit, rims and spoiler all flow well and this should've came from Audi itself.

Last night I ran across a B5 S4 Avant with a rear bumper. I have $ that its a Reiger rear, check out LLtek.

ehhh, it looks sweet, and i can't say i haven't thought about it... but i think that the thing that makes the B5's (well any a4) appealing is that they are a really well designed sedan with great sport possibility... unlike the BMW 3 series which i think only looks good as a coupe.

I like it, but it would be better in black.

I say keep the rear doors, I would feel like a dipsh!t if I had to get out of the car and fold my seat forward to let people into the car...

I like my back doors alot...if I wanted a two door I would have one...

I think the only way a 2 door would make any sense would either be as a track car or a show car...but not as my every day grocery getter...

I think a 2 door hatchback b5 would be sweet

I would like to coupe it, mildly chop it, stiffen the suspension, then drop a smallblock v8 in it. Highly unorthodox? Yes. Fun as hell? Extremely.
