UrS6 Avant: 1995 Audi S6 Wagon

If you are in the market for a 7 passenger family hauler, the S6 Avant might not be on the top of your list...heck it probably won't even make the list, but all 400 of the US bound C4 generation S6 Avants (typ 4A9) came with a small set of rear facing kid seats...so it should be on the list.  Power isn't spectacular with the original 2.2 liter inline-5 cylinder 20-valve engine that pushes out 227 horsepower and 240 ft-lbs of torque, but it isn't bad either.

Vee Ten: 2008 Audi S6

A huge engine in a medium size car is a formula that never seems to get tired.  With the advent of modern turbo set ups, the old adage of there is no replacement for displacement is being put to the real test though.  Back in the mid 2000s, Audi and BMW both deemed that a V8 engine wasn't enough cylinders for their highest performing mid side sedans.  The Audi S6 and BMW M5 changed course and went to V10 engines for this generation of cars.  The magic power of depreciation brings us a Lambo derived and glorious sounding V10 German super sedan for under 10 grand!  Find this 2008 Audi S6 for sale in Prospect, CT for $8,700 via craigslist.

Avant Garde: 1995 Audi S6 Wagon

The Avant Garde art movement was an early 20th century rejection of the norm by artists -- up became down, and down became green.  The fine "art'," music, theater, and cacophonous nonsense that emanated from the "advanced guard" of the art world is just about the antithesis of Audi's stately Ur-S6 wagon, but they strangely share a name.  Find this 1995 Audi S6 Avant offered for $10,000 in Centennial, CO via craigslist.

20k: 4-Ring Circus: 2007 Audi S6 Vs 2007 Audi S4

Cromniomancy is the art of divination using onions.  In practice, you inscribe two choices (perhaps for love life or career choice) on the bottom of two onions and wait for one to sprout -- the first one with a sprout lets you know which of the two choices you need to follow.  Personally, I find this sort of witchcraft disgusting, not just because of my dislike for onions (actually they do taste good when cooked, but raw onions are about as appealing to eat as a set of used spark plugs), but also because I prefer the art of Audiomancy.  This is where you buy two used Audis, inscribe your life changing choices and wait for one to have a catastrophic failure that requires a multi-week dealer visit.  Oddly enough, Audiomancy is a great way to make important financial decisions while simultaneously emptying your bank account and rendering those financial issues moot.  Plus, who has time to wait for those onions to sprout -- a used Audi is only a few good throttle pedal mashes away from some complex and financially crippling electro-hydra-mechnical failure.  Here is a set of used Audis ready for the Audiorceror; first is this 2007 Audi S6 offered for $18,900 and second is this 2007 Audi S4 offered for $18,999, both cars are located in St Louis, MO via craigslist.

10k: Family Turismo: 2002 Audi S6 Avant

Two of the biggest complaints about yesterday's Mazda5 is that it is slow and offers limited behind-the-seat storage in the hatch area.  If you are a mom on the go with 4 kids, chances are one of them will be in a stroller, another playing lacrosse and the rest building giant dioramas.  The gym locker sized space behind the rear seat in the Mazda5 just isn't going to cut it...so...why not pick up a real wagon with some serious storage room?  But, it won't seat six!  Just wait and see.  Find this 2002 Audi S6 Avant offered for $8900 near Dallas, TX via autotrader.  Tip from Matt J.
