I know this is a C5 but please give me your opinion on this car for 12K. It is my son in law in Nashville and he does not know squat. I wish I had time to look at it with him but I am 9 hours away and he is going to look at it this afternoon. Thank You, Dan

Too cheap. Unless he wants a project, not worth the hassle.

I had a 2000 C5 A4, both tops, with 105,000 miles on it when I reluctantly traded it in for a new pickup I needed. That was a great car, extremely reliable, very comfortable, quick, glued to the road, and had great gas mileage (over 30mpg on highway trips, 26-28 around town), and I have regretted giving it up ever since. But now I have a '90 ZR-1 to go along with my truck.
