Perfect design and performance

2007 Audi A6 3.2 quattro 4dr Sedan AWD (3.1L 6cyl 6A)

Review

This is a spectacular car, its handling is excellent, and it grips the road like no other car. It is the nicest design, interior and exterior in its class. Very smooth on the road for the front seats, and has been a very reliable car so far. I drive a lot, it has 16000 miles in less then a year, and so far it has not gone for service except for the regular maintenance. Great AWD as well, drives in the snow beautifully, doesn't slip or slide. Great job Audi.

Favorite Features

Acceleration, audio system, handling, and AWD. Great on snow and in rain.

Suggested Improvements

The rain sensors are not the best, but that is not a big deal, you can do it manually. Navigation should be made a little easier to use. The ride is comfortable, but you can really feel the bumps on the road in the backseat, more then most cars in its class.

Excellent car. Have had several Audis. This is the best, even though the others were excellent.

Favorite Features

Fit and finish, mileage, safe car feel.

Suggested Improvements

The direct fuel injection causes noisy engine on acceleration.

Review

This is a very impressive car. Love the power in sport mode. Build quality is awesome. Traded a 2006 A3 2.0 with DSG. I miss the lightning quick paddles and DSG would be a great addition to this vehicle. The trunk is huge. I have not tested this, but I am guessing that I could fit 4 golf bags in it. Can't wait to burn up the miles.

Favorite Features

Smooth 4.2, technology package, car is extremely user friendly.

Suggested Improvements

Review

Since purchase, the car presented steering and eletrical problems. Audi USA claims the vehicle is operating to specs. It drifts left and right. Several alignments and hundreds of dollars later, I just got used to the way it behaves. Electrical problems include warning lights that will not go off. Stereo not working. MMI malfunction. Undercarriage plastic protection ripped off with RAIN WATER. Plastic parts wear off too fast. The AWD feature is very nice and helps with the handling. The interior is very nice. Hopefully Audi will master their product eventually. I will not be a repeat buyer though. Front bumper comes off when parking.

Favorite Features

Interior, phone handsfree, Quattro, seats.

Suggested Improvements

Steering needs serious improvement. Undercarriage protection should be stronger. Front bumper needs to have higher clearance. Improve eletrical systems, especially engine warning indicator sensors.

Review

This car is soooo awesome. It drives like a dream. The luxury amenities are truly luxurious. The nav is awesome. The capability of calling friends by voice command and bluetooth technology will allow me to never get a ticket. It is so beautiful both on the inside and the outside. I am having so much fun figuring out how to use the console to its fullest potential.

Favorite Features

The beautiful yellow wood interior and the console, sirius radio and the nav system.

Suggested Improvements

Make a hybrid that can still run like this and, man, I am buying 2 more. Build in a system to watch DVD movies for the kids in the back seat and iPod capability and you have the ultimate luxury car that some of us can afford.

Perfect rendition of my vision of an LPS

Review

The Audi A6 3.2 Quattro S-Line virtually embodies my vision of what a luxury performance sedan should be. Quattro four-wheel-drive provides incredible control, handling, and steering through curves and around corners. S-Line suspension gives "on-rails" feeling. Averaging 22 mpg, while driving it "passionately." Stunning and comfortable interior, with full array of electronics: excellent bluetooth (Treo 700p worked from the start); navigation system (small additional display in front of driver allows larger screen to be freed from map-use), which has been dead-on accurate; wonderful climate system and heated seats bottoms and backs. I love looking at it.

Favorite Features

Six speed tiptronic transmission can be used in "D" (fuel-efficient gradual acceleration), "S" (very fast acceleration), or shift-for-yourself modes. A bluetooth that mated with my phone in love-at-first-sight fashion. S-Line sport suspension matches handling of my BMW 3-series.

Suggested Improvements

Full-featured iPod connector.

Best Bang for your Quarta!

2007 Audi A6 4.2 quattro 4dr Sedan AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6A)

Review

The first thing that is great about the car is its elegant interior, I've owned BMWs and Lexus and MBZs and they all come in a distant second to the interior. The sure footedness of its all wheel drive makes it a fun car to drive, yet not stiff and rugged like it's german relatives. This vehicle is not the quickest off the line but the real world does not live in the 0-60 realm, it is in real driving situations where this car exceeds expectations. The MMI took a while to learn, but who needs it when you have the voice activated commands?

Favorite Features

Believe it or not my favorite feature are the hooks in the trunk. The Nav is also a favorite if mine.

Suggested Improvements

Only improvement would be a tad bit more leg room in the back.

Big jump from my old Jeep Grand Cherokee

Review

Fast, quiet, responsive, well appointed, bells and whistles aside, I love going to work now. The mountain freeway I drive to and from work is fun now, for the first time in 25 years. It's taking me a little time getting used to the differences of driving from my old car, and 1995 Jeep, where my legs go down in from of me and the steering wheel isn't between my knees. The 2007 A6 is a race car. It hunkers down into turns asking me to push the gas peddle a little further down, as if it wants to go faster. The car has a quality that puts it in a class with any other more expensive car on the road. Consumer reports for the 2007 Audi A6 will be all good, I believe. I couldn’t be more impressed.

Favorite Features

Fuel economy with great powerful performance. Grip in turns and high speed. Bluetooth cell phone. Fit and finish inside. Everything seems to be well thought through. Beautiful engineering is the word for this car. The engineers who designed this car, did so because of their love affair with it.

Suggested Improvements

Add one more half inch of extension on the telescopic steering wheel. The upgrade leather wasn't as upgraded as I felt it could have been. I've been driving it for a little more than a month now, and can't think of anything else that I would change. I love this new Quartz Silver color.

2007 4.2 S line A6

2007 Audi A6 4.2 quattro 4dr Sedan AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6A)

Review

I agonized over this car for months Audi vs BMW vs Lexus vs Acura... I am defiinitely very happy. The V8 is quick off the line but is more appreciated when passing on the freeway. S line handling and paddle shifter are fun but not mandatory. New addition is the review camera - which becomes important in the city (bumpers not made for love taps). Interior comfort very similar to the A8. The car is awesome. The Nav is easier to use than BMW. Decent mpg for a V8. The brakes could be a more responsive. Apparently they didn't make too many of the V8 A6s - usually are ordered only - and so you wind up paying more for it (just 1k under MSRP) but is definitely worth it.

Favorite Features

Looks, luxury, interior and exterior lighting, tech package, nice sunroof, great seats, large trunk space, review camera, the sound of the V8.

Suggested Improvements

Brakes could be a little bit more responsive.
