Default Yup, I'm a trader

Well I currently own a 2000 Audi S4. But its a POS. It's been nothing but a money pit since I bought it. I've always loved the sytling of the 350's. I've been researching most of the day, but I still have a few questions.

1. Are there any problems that seem to happen in all 350's?
2. How reliable are they? (I'm in college and home is 300+ miles away)
3. I heard they get good gas mileage, what do yall get?
4. Im lost of the different types, can someone clue me in on the differences?

Any info helps, Preciate it guys!

1. Power window motors would be the most common
2. Very, on time oil changes are a must and only synthetic oil after 7k.
3. They get decent mileage... between 15-20.
4. Most of the differences are interior and handling...... the main thing is Coupe/ Roadster

Sounds like a car for me. Like I said, I have the S4 now. It was nice when I needed all the room. When I was at home, I drove my little brother around and my girlfriend. But now that I am in college, theres no need for the room. Im looking at getting a coupe. leather would be nice but not a must, deff a 6 spd, the bose sub would be nice but again not a must. I would love a black Z, and I love the new wheels they put on them. Does anyone know if they put the new rims on the 03-04? I heard the clutches go pretty easy or they have in some.

The clutch problems are mainly caused by the driver..... You can put the new wheel on a 03/04 but they are expensive and hard to find at a decent price. Looked at the Nismo wheels ? ... My company sells them on ebay, they look real sharp.

I have found 2 touring editions within 100 miles of here and they are both 18k. A red one that has the lip spoiler but the interior is tan with wood grain ( not very sporty ) but theres a silver one that I could prolly talk down to 17k that has the spoiler with the peanut butter colored leather. They both are around the 47k to 52k mileage range. What do you guys think? Neither one of them has been driven that hard, in fact they havnt been driven much at all lately because both men recently got married.

First off the only way to go is leather and bose. i have a White 06 i got for 22,500 with 27k on it. mine is loaded with everything but nav. Honnestly wait to find what you want. they will come in a hurry. if it isnt the color and trim you want wait. you will be glad you did. Im looking to get new rims soon.
