Why can't I find cars like this in my area, All the ones I find have zero work done to them, and they cost more. I search on Autotrader and Cars.com, and this board. Am I missing something??

I would go with number 1.

I'm also in the same process as you are. In fact i'm waiting to hear back about my credit application and as soon as it's approved I got myself a S4..HOORAY!!! Anyways...i tend to think that the lower the mileage the better. I mean...yeah it's nice that some come with mods from the get go..but I prefer reliability and carlife above anything else. I chose a stock '01 with 60k for 14,490, and (crossing my fingers) everything goes well in the next few hours!!

Go & drive all 3 of them, pick the nicest driving/looking car, easy as that.

id go with one with less mileage. Especially with the mods. Mods are sweet, but lets face it...they usually tempt previous owners to beat on their cars

I finally got the #1 (silver one), surprisingly it already got APR Bi-pipe and solid F-Hose from Vast i think.it runs pretty smooth, just that it has a leaky valve cover gasket i was told. might be a bad 02 sensor as well, pulled the code "02 Sensor Bank 1" sth like that, are there any members from the bay area would help me to VAG-COM the car please?

oh andigot a lot of boost spike with theGIAC chip, boost was like 24psi or sth like that, guess i will ned the MBC and TCD?

Car will run much better once that 02 fault is fixed. and fix the oil problem as soon as possible. just get a gasket kit and DIY. easy
