Thread: Can't chose between b5 or b6/b7

  1. 07-05-2012 08:52 PM #1
    Like the title says, I can't decide on which one to buy.

    I think the b5 would be a nice and fun car to tune and what not, but I also love the power/smoothness of a v8.

    What do you guys think? I want to mod the b6/b7 with full bolt ons and possibly a turbo/supercharger later down the road.

    If I went with the b5 I would be doing turbo upgrades (ko4)

    Which do you think is the better decision?

    This is killing me

    So you are considering the S4 versions?

    V-6's can be very smooth and still sound amazing. It's not a 4 banger so the gap on the uniqueness of the v8 is lessened by that fact.

    It seems you really want to tune and mod, so I say go for b5.
