I have 05, and very happy with it, and feel that good price, But whats the milage on it.
I think you might get it down little more if mileage is high, it has all the bells and whistles.
Here is the owners manual for 2005, if you care to read it and get familiar.

If I am reading the report correctly, car seems like it had an awful lot of work done to it early on and not minor work at that. Also, had 5 owners, with the first 4 owners not keeping it very long. Maybe all the bugs were worked out since the 5th owner kept it the longest. I would be hesitant given its repair history. Average deal at best IMO. Just my .02. Now my neck hurts. GLWP!

P.S. Agree with unclecookie, the red '05 seems like the better car. One owner and a lot less issues.

The red Corvette looks like a better car. But you probably want a M6, and the red one is an A4.

Thx so much! I came to the same conclusion as far as the early repairs and the fact that the last owner kept it the longest but im still hesitant. Ill keep looking. Thx again!

That is the wise decision. I know you get the urge to buy, but there are many good deals out there if you are patient. Besides, the more cars you look at and test drive will help you know when "The One" shows up.
