Default New one!

I am very new to Audi, having owned MANY BMW's several M's
I have always liked the Audis, and now I am about to take
delivery on an 05 S4 with 54,000 miles. I am paying 18K for it,
and curious how thats stands price wise. I would be the 2nd owner
it is Dolphin Grey/Black, Tip, very nice shape.
I am also wondering if it is worth the money (2800.00)
for a 3/36 bumper to bumper extended warranty.
Thanks in advance
Steve

I don't bother with extended warranties, but it's a risk.

As for the price, as long as it's in good condition, $18k is fantastic considering the mileage.

I was going to get the one that the dealer sells, since they offer it
they should be in sync with using it.

I still have my 04 330ci vert, have to have 1!
I am giving up my Prius of 2 years. I drive alot everyday
ánd the Prius is great, but I need something with more
power, I figure, gas is still down, if it gets back up
I will put her in the S4, and take her Camry Hybrid.
I am getting some **** for getting rid of the green
machine, but I need a change for my sanity,
I am a car guy.

Yes, I had an X5, and a 2003 M3 Vert Dinan stage 2, and
I was face with 53K a year for my older son it GW, and still paying
on Private school for the younger one, so I decided to be
a happy idiot, and get rid of them in pace of the Pinus.
It did save me TONS of money last year when it was 4 bux a gallon
that was then, this is now, its Audi time.
