Adios C5, Hello C6!
C5 owners: I have just porchased a 2007 C6 M6 to replace my 2004 A4.
While I will always love the C5, I made a great deal, and my payments and insurance are actually LOWER than with the C5, and I now have a M6, which I always wanted. Best to all C5 owners, I will post photos once I get back home from business travel!

Get outta here!
C6s still don't impress me. I cannot see that the new Z06 is worth $40K more than mine cost new.
