2007 Audi Q7 3.6 quattro 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Review
Finally plunked down the cash for a German driving machine. Great handling, solid engine, but what a disappointment on the rest. From a jerky transmission (no trouble found of course)and creaky transmission to a $1200 MMI console from 2 drops of water and a door handle that fell off (these last two I hear happen all the time). Finish is falling off the console, cargo net fell off twice, gas door sticks open. I expect far better for this price car. Who is giving this all those 9.5's? Are their cars still in the dealer lot, or did I get a lemon?
Favorite Features
Sound system, handling.
Suggested Improvements
Protect the electronics, improve the MMI interface
What a beauty!

2007 Audi Q7 4.2 Premium quattro 4dr SUV AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6A)
Review
I bought my Q7 brand new and it is my favorite auto I have ever owned. It is responsive in S when you want to feel speed, it has the perfect size inside and out (not too big and not too small). I love the 4 captain chairs and third row just in case we need them. As a new mom, I love the automatic tailgate and smart key: each door unlocking when near without pulling out the key. The best of all is its sexy lines. It doesn't get better than this!
Favorite Features
Camera, sound system, tailgate, double sunroof and mesh curtains, acceleration in S, solid and safe ride, comfort, technology, bluetooth, iPhone interface and sexy look.

2007 Audi Q7 4.2 Premium quattro 4dr SUV AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6A)
Review
My Audi Q7 has been the nicest drive for handling, comfort and acceleration! but the electronics have failed since about 3 weeks after I brought it home. When it doesn't work, it doesn't work... no GPS, phone,radio, CD, iPod, nothing. And this was at the same time the steering column got stuck in the down position. While setting my preferred settings I lowered it, it stayed there for a month or so, the service dept fixed it but the rest is a on going mystery!
Favorite Features
Acceleration on demand! Design and style that capture a second look.
Suggested Improvements
Front parking sensor, relocate cup holders.

Review
I absolutely love my Q7. I will warn you though of a major design flaw. If any of you ever drink a liquid while driving, beware. I spilled the smallest amount of coffee and it shorted out part of my electrical system.This little spill will cost you close to $1000. If you notice, the buttons are directly in front of the cupholders. What was Audi thinking? Now when I have my coffee or water, I put a cloth over the control panel!
Favorite Features
Blue tooth, sunroof (wish it would open all the way), heated steering wheel, navigation system, look of the car.
Suggested Improvements
Larger back seat, waterproof the area next to the cupholders!

2007 Audi Q7 3.6 Premium quattro 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Review
After buying a Acura MDX a year ago I traded it for a Q7. Huge upgrade! And basically the same price, no comparison. This was the buying decision I should have made but at the time I was a new SUV driver and the Q7 seemed like a lot of vehicle for me then. I love the Q7, from the interior and exterior foot lights to the powerful but smooth styling. Build quality is exceptional, superb braking and transmission makes for a very safe and smooth ride.
Favorite Features
Fits like a glove, just a great vehicle to drive. Feels really solid and beautifully build.
Suggested Improvements
Can add more steering wheel controls - the stereo buttons in the center column can be difficult to select.

I love to drive my Audi Q7. It handles like a dream on the highway. The Quattro AWD is the best I have driven for the size of vehicle the handling is nimble.
Favorite Features
Handling and safety features. The technology package is outstanding.
Suggested Improvements
A running board should be standard for this type of vehicle.

2007 Audi Q7 4.2 Premium quattro 4dr SUV AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6A)
Review
I love the SUV. Audi has done it again. The car is a pleasure to drive. The only problem I had is the air compressor was defective and I could not fill my tire with air when I needed to.
Favorite Features
I like the extra large and double sunroof.
Suggested Improvements
Better interior balance of steel and woodgrain trim across the different dashboard components.

2007 Audi Q7 3.6 quattro 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Review
I have two children ages 4 and 11 months. There is enough room for one car seat, a booster seat and still room for an adult on the same row! I owned a minivan before, and although there is a little less room in the Q7 it's not by much. Love the way it drives. MMI is really easy to work. The only bad thing is it gets bad gas mileage. But, you have to remember it is an SUV.
Favorite Features
The seats and the MMI.
Suggested Improvements
Cup holders in the front are not designed well at all. They need to have two cup holders side by side, not where you have to flip up the arm rest.

2007 Audi Q7 4.2 Premium quattro 4dr SUV AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6A)
Review
I've been driving mine for about 6 months now and I do love it. It's a lot like driving a loaded A6 (my Q7 is a 4.2 premium). It handles well, accelerates well and is extremely comfortable to drive. The tech bells and whistles offer everything you could need and want. My only complaint with the car is the off-road abilities. Thule doesn't make racks for it and for anyone who is an outdoor enthusiant looking for a more rugged vehicle worthy of hauling bikes, kayaks, etc, you may find yourself a little disappointed. However, some research early on may prove that this is the perfect all around vehicle for you. My wife has a Lexus and i've gone through Land Rovers, BMW X5, Tahoe, etc.
Favorite Features
Comfort, tech options, feel of driving a car with the space and versatility of an SUV.
Suggested Improvements
Make the nav easier to use, it's a bit complicated with a steep learning curve. However, once you get it, it's very good.

2007 Audi Q7 3.6 Premium quattro 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Review
The Audi Q7 3.6 Premium is a beautiful car. I get many people peeking through the windows trying to see the wonderful interior. I also get many compliments on how it looks everytime I go gas it or go to school. I got the Q7 after I traded in my Navigator. I hated how the Navigator drove and looked compared to Q7. The Q7 makes other SUVs look like boxes on wheels. The Q7 drives very easy in tight spaces making it feel smaller than it really is. People may think that the MMI will be hard to operate, but it's not. All the rows have comfortable seats, but the third row is hard to get to. The ride is much smoother than the Navigator and goes over rough surfaces very nicely.
Favorite Features
The MMI, panoramic sunroof, 20" rims, heated seats, 4-zone climate, navigation system, premium Bose stereo, adjusting bi-xenon headlamps, and power liftgate.
Suggested Improvements
None.
