I currently drive an Audi A6 2.8(6 cyl) Quattro - 2001.

Since I'm moving off campus next year I would like to get a car that has better gas milage. My car currently averages 19-21 MPG.

I would like to have a car that has AWD since I'm living in Rochester, NY.

The price that I'm thinking of is a car that is cheaper than my current car so that I can trade it in. (around 13,000 or less)

Cars that I am thinking of...

Subaru WRX Wagon - Turbo kinda kills the better gas mileage thing but the car is so nice! Anyone know what the Average MPG of this car is?

Audi A4 1.8T - Once again, has a turbo..but it's a 4 cyl.

any suggestions? comments? please post. thanks.

You're wanting to change cars to get an extra 4-5mpg? Does that not sound a little ridiculous?

I guess it is a little ridiculous. But this is just a thought.

maybe a subaru outback. i wouldn't bother and keep the audi until something breaks. only choices you have are SUV's

but an interesting thought would be a used Evo 8... hmmm 4WD...

little too expensive :(, I'm looking for something under $15k.
