Default Looking into buying an 00 S4

I was just wondering what are some things i should look out for or ask the dealer about when i go back to check it out again. Or if i should look into a different year, been reading something about 01.5's being better.

It's an 00 S4, with the tiptronic transmission, 54k miles.

O and the dealer is askin 22.8k for it, should i haggle lower, if so how low, and do you need a list of the options on the car?

Or feel free to suggest a different car for me to get(it would be my first car). And for anyone thinking i am a spoiled rich boy, i am not, just for some reason my parents want me to get something new and reliable, i origionaly asked for a 94 eclipse GSX which was bein sold for 5.5k, but for some reason that was outta the question.

that price seems a little steep for a 2000 with that mileage. i only gave a $1000 more than that for my 01 with 27k miles over a year ago. granted it wasnt from a dealer and didnt have any kind of extended warranty on it. i would either be in jail or dead if i had gotten my S4 for my first car so good luck to you.

I just figure it would be a good car, because in a couple months i graduate highschool, plan on going to wyotech, then onto audi academy to be a technician. Get my ASE master certification in auto, while following up with deisel, body, and machinst master certs. Hopefully moving onto lambo by the time i am 30.

or instead of staying a technician, do an electro-mechenical engineering bach program at like RPI while paying my way through with the job.

you will save yourself alot of money if you can do all of your own work. that is one bad thing about these cars, everything you do cost a fortune.

Back on subject of the s4.

What should i look out for, what should i ask about?

What should be my concerns if i do buy the car after 6 months or so?

I'm not planning on doing any upgrades, don't know how 2 drive manual(though i would like to learn) though i am a lazy person so automatic might just be better for me.
