oh i am buying in the UK and looks like i'll be going with car giant, i can send my fiancee's brother to look at a car for me and pay a deposit i'll fly over, collect and get the ferry back.
i'll spend about 12k sterling and the dj gear is small these datys but its a full rig out.
i wouldn't use the word street cred, but i don#t want to drive a volvo, prestige is be a word i'd use, merc, audi, that level of car.
the A6 seems to tick all the boxes, good size, name, great engine and comfortable as well. i think the A6 has the lot, i'm going for the 130 bhp version ( 6 speed ) i have that in the golf and it was amazing, i'll get it chipped and bring the power level up even more.
