    looking at CPO 2019 550i advice needed.

    Hi all. Going back and fourth between a 2019 CPO 550i or a new Audi S6 and a 550i popped up today in the exact exterior and interior color combo I'm looking for which rarely happens for me! Going to check out the car next week. Don't mind the negotiation process at all but what should I be shooting for off the selling price? I'm patient and am always willing to hold out for a better deal but am totally in the dark about what number I want to end up at here. My intuition is to try to get the car for 60 after haggling...is that unrealistic? I love the fact I found the bluestone grey with the brown interior but I still want to get the best deal I could possibly can!

    Interesting post. This is my life! I have a 2017 S6 in the garage. My wife had a 17 A8 that she didn't care for since it was too long and the power was so so. We were out the other day and looked at a CPO 19 550i. She (and I) love it. It's a real Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde car. It's pretty refined but put it in sport mode and it really changes into a beast. It's similar to my S6 with it's tt v8 but with a little more grunt. My first impression is that the S6 has a little smoother ride than the 550i but that could just be that the BMW has run flats and I'm on my softer winter tires.
    I'm not sure about the new S6's with the new v6. From what I've read it doesn't really shine until it gets into the upper rpm's. I had an S4 before getting a v8 and I think if you test drove the v6 Audi versus the v8 BMW the choice will probably pretty obvious.
    Tough decision. Good luck.

    Hahaha yea it's not going to be easy.Deep down I want the S6 but getting a 550im exactly how I would want with a better warranty vs the new car is hard to pass up too! Really wish they made a new RS4 Sedan. That would make my decision much easier lol. Test drove the new S4 last week and absolutley loved it. Will be testing out the S6 and M550 on Monday!

    Pretty much! Btw how did you like your S4? The handling of that car was phenomenal! Felt nice to be in a smaller zippy car as well. I have no children and generally hate having backseat passengers so sometimes I feel like the extra space is wasted on me.My A6 felt like a boat compared to it. The current A6 platform is even a bit bigger than mine I believe. Such a Gorgeous interior though, hands down the best in the segment right now.

    I really liked my S4. It was a more nimble than the S6. Mine was an 11; I test drove the newer turbo version and liked it but wanted something a little more refined. Just like with the 3 versus 5 series, Audi's build quality seems to be better on the 6 versus the 4. This is just my opinion though.
