I was worried going from an A4 to an A3 but for the value I got for the price this car is perfect! Carlsbad Audi is awesome to work with.

Nimble and grippy

Easy and nimble. Great pull from engine with lots of torque down low. Smooth cruising, despite a tight suspension. Best performance sedan for the money, and I have experience owning top sports cars and sedans.

The best there is

Look at used Audi’s as the a 4 conv. The new ones depreciate quickly. Audi owners take care of their cars, so it’s hard to go wrong.

Great little car

I’m at 90,000 miles and it runs like a top. My mileage in town is 38-39 and on the Highway about 48-49. The car handles like it’s wearing sneakers. The only problem is the low profile tires get pinched when I hit a Pittsburgh pothole and cracks the sidewalk. If this is my last car before the walker, I’m okay with it. Great stereo with the Bang and Olfsen. Now at 107,000 miles. Still love it. I had to fix the truck release-broken wire. My only trip to the dealer and not as painful as expected.

I absolutely love the way my new car hugs the road when I drive. It drives like a dream! The stereo is great too, I can hear it perfectly clear with the top down!
