Great A4
After waiting 3 months to recieve my car it finally arrived. What a great car! I looked at a BMW 330, but the styling was boring. After getting the complete new Aero kit (first in the USA) put on the car it looks great! I love the Tiptronic, now my wife can enjoy driving a fast car also.

As a long time VW driver I am very pleased with the A4 in every way except for its appetite for fuel.

2002 Audi A4
I love the double exhaust. In and out, the car feels great. I was glad I didn't get the Passat. More importantly, I chose this car over the likes of C-Class and the 3-Series.
No comparison
This has got to be the best car I have ever owned. Had it one week and I've already have 1200 miles on it. I've been looking for excuses to drive anywhere and everywhere. Smooth, crisp handling and everything just fits right.
Best of the Best
I've been owning BMW 328I for 5 years now and we wanted to buy a sports wagon. Choices were: BMW 325 or Audi A4. A4 is better value. Styling is perfect, driving a car is pleasant. Car handles as it should be for a German automobile. Very satisfied with A4 Avant. We'll see how the quality of the car turn up in the next 5 years or more.
2002 Audi A4
This car is a beaut. Its a good competition with the 3-series...I love everything about it. If I had more dough, I would've bumped up for the 3.0 or wait for the S4. But for now, I'm smiling everyday.
Fun to drive
For the price a great car. Wish the cd changer was more random but that is the only thing I would improve
Nothing but good things to say
I finally stumbled upon the new A4 and fell in love at once. I have always liked the styling, but Audi has been weak in performance and I almost didn't even give the car a second look. The increased horsepower has made this car a dream to drive. The interior is meticulous German engineering and provides an environment that is comfortable and refined, yet not overdone. The AWD capabilities make this a perfect all around automobile. I have been nothing but pleased with the car over the past 8 months.
Audi A4
Interior is best I have seen, everything else is self-explanatory.
Avant
Was skeptical about buying a first model year car. Additionally, our last 1999 A4 was plagued with mechanical issues. However, Audi service is excellent and made up for our troubles. We took the plunge and bought this car anyway (for a wagon, it's gorgeous). 6000 miles thus far with no problems. Car is much better all around than previous model. Very happy with purchase.
Great Car
This is a great car. Handles well, looks great and is comfortable. It seems to be loosening up the more miles that gets put on it, so I am not complaining too much about performance anymore. The interior materials are, as always, excellent and the build quality is excellent. As I write this, there is about 3200 miles on the car and I have not had any problems. The sport wheels that come with the Avant are awesome looking!
Audi A4
CVT is the best out there.
Awesome A4
I have a 3.0 Tiptronic Quattro. Ebony inside and out. Leather too. This is my second A4, and I must say that the 2002 model is 100% improved from the previous generation. I thought the previous generation was great, but the 2002 model feels soooo solid and well built. It is better in every regard. The fuel economy ratings are right on target; I consistently get 25 MPG on the highway and a little over 18 in the city. I'm not faulting the ratings, I just wish the fuel economy was a little better. I think the front seats are a little firm, but that is just my taste. Perhaps they'll soften up as time goes on.
Unbelievable handling
The handling in this car is unlike any other car I've driven. The BMW 3-Series 4 wheel drive doesn't compare. The car rides a little bit rough at lower speeds and its pick-up is good but not great, but where this car really excels is on the open road. Extremely tight handling at higher speeds, this car is extremely fun to drive. One major drawback for me has been that the Check Engine light will not go off despite repeated trips to the dealership.
My best buy
Love this car. No complaints. Handles lke a dream, worth every cent. Would not trade this car for anything. BUY IT!
Audi A4
I love the fact that my wife will be riding in both safety and comfort without sacrificing style.
A4 Effort
This is my 2nd Audi, and by far this A4 is a big imrovement over my last Audi. I love the style, handling, interior and exterior build quality and the little touches Audi built into this car. I look for twisty roads to drive and I smile every day I am in this car. I give Audi a big A 4 effort !!
One solid cozy ride!!!
Aluminum trim awesome!!!
Many to choose from, but only ONE to buy
It came down to the Audi A4 1.8t, BMW 325i, and Mercedes C240, with the same order in price, cheapest to most expensive. 1.8t ran about 30k loaded, 325i 37k loaded, and C240 over 40k loaded. What made it easy was the fact that the A4 trumped the rest of the competition with its beautiful and classy interior! I'm sorry, but the C-Class is quite cheaply made interior wise, and the Bimmer was looking more and more dated. Very solid ride, typicaly Teutonic. Must see in person, very muscular and athletic looking, handles like its on rails.
Audi A4
The sport package rims are absolutely awesome looking!
What an excellent car
This is a solid, well-designed Audi with a lot of pickup for a 4 cylinder.
2002 what a difference
I was originally going to purchase the car in 2001, but held off for financial reasons. I recently purchased the car with audi of fairfield in CT. One of the most consumer friendly dealerships I have been to. The 3.0 was a little out of my price range but the 1.8t was perfect fully loaded with almost all the options of the 3.0 plus the quattro for 30K on the nose. New new styling is much better in the rear but still could use a tweak or two to make it more like the A6. Overall it looks great but the best part is the creature comforts audi gives you inside. Hands down the best interior out of any comprable car.
Disappointed....
Had to bring it back to the dealer many times... Sunroof motor, A/C relay, Master cylinder, power window motor, valve tap at start up...
GREAT Automobile!!!
Having traded up from a 1993 Saturn, I am in heaven. This is my first Audi and I have had a great experience all around. The salespeople were great, the car is beyond compare, and the value for the money is unbeatable.
Cannot go wrong with A4
Practical, comfortable and safe sports sedan. This is my second Audi, and I am definitely "hooked" on the brand. Strongly recommend for consideration if you are looking for entry level luxury sedan.
7 months and 20K miles, I love this car!
In March of 02 I traded in my 99 Civic SI for a 02 Audi A4 Quattro, Dolphin Grey, sports package. My oh my, I'll never go back to the more economical Hondas (though they were great!). This car is fun to drive, and get lots of compliments. I've put it through some rigerous driving tests (my my nature, I'm a tough but good driver) and this car has performed very very well. The seats are very comfy and after a 5 hour drive, my back felt great! The AWD and ESP work well together in rain and sandy roads. The interior and exterior are both very stylish and well designed.
Audi A4 3.0 outstanding
an amazing ride, beautiful design, fun with outstanding luxury features for less than its market. i love it.
The ultimate in design and engineering.
I originally went to an Audi dealer to drive a TT and decided that it was not enough of a step up in size and comfort from my '99 Miata to justify a switch. I drove the A4 and was hooked. Two days later I picked up my Amulet Red 1.8T, 5 Speed with Sport Package, Sunroof, Xenon Lights & Bose Stereo. I am totally infatuated with my car! It is as sporty and as much fun to drive as the TT. The 5 speed shifts with ease, and with the exception of a slight turbo lag, I couldn't ask for more power. The fit and finish on this car is nearly flawless. Handling and performance could not be better. I have never been this enthusiastic about a car. It is precision "German Engineering" at it's best!
Super car!
Great car
Rare CVT
The CVT is a pleasure to drive! The car has performed flawlessly. The 1.8t has plenty of power around town and does great on the highway.
75k and still going
This is my second Audi (prev 4000CS) and am pleased with the way the car has performed. I first bought the auto in Seattle and had shipped to Europe (wanted US specs) and had it up to 128 mph. It drove flawless on the Autostrata! I purchased with the Phatbox and so I can enjoy my MP3s. The leatherette seats hold up better than the real leather seats my friend purchased with his Audi A4. Only big issue is that you must change the extended oil religeously with the turbo motor as it will cook the oil in the return pipe and cause the warning light to come on. It's a costly fix so beware. Overall the car is joy to drive when I can get away from my wife. Economical yet has power. Love it!
Rick's Review
This is my second A4. In two years I'll most likely be on my third...
A4 - the real deal
I'm disappointed with the 02 A4. The exterior styling is great, but the interior is drab and monotone. I've had many problems in 6 months. Twice I had it towed to the dealership with igition coil problems. The cruise control and windshield washers also had to be fixed. The engine revs too high, even at low speeds and the car could use a 6th gear. The road noise, vibrations, rattle & squeaks are excessive and the overall build quality of the car doesn't compare to that of my '99 A4. The seats are also narrow and hard. On the plus side, the all-wheel drive is great. The handling is impressive when the car is driven hard on winding backroads.
A FINE CAR!
I had been in the market for a reliable, safe car for my daughter and found an '01 A-4, 1.8 Turbo. She loves the car! I then decided to look at the '02 Quattro 6 cylinder for my wife. We've already put 12,000 miles on the car and would consider it by far the "funnest" vehicle we've ever owned! My wife does most of the driving of the Audi, and she enjoys the comfort and solid feel. (she washes the car weekly with a diaper!) I think she's pretty safe in the car, and thus far, it's been reliable. Only negative is we were promised "free" service for 48,000 miles. They neglect to tell you that this doesn't include synthetic oil ($33 per change.
fun to drive
Real fun to drive. Handels great
My Audi A4
So far this car has been a pleasure to drive. It is fast and lively, especially while in the manual shift mode. The multitronic transmission is sluggish in the automatic shift mode, so having the ability to shift manually saves the day. It is virtually impossible to turn the wheels on Quattro versions, which is good. The sport suspension is taut (perhaps harsh to some) and responsive. Cabin noise is muted. Controls are well placed and the red and white illumination is gorgeous. The leather is top-notch, as is the fit and finish of both the interior and exterior. Audi makes just about the finest interiors I've ever seen. This is one fine German machine!
The A4 is a Beautiful Car
The A4 Sport Package - Dolphin Gray color is a awesome looking car - the best looking on the road. The turbo gives it the extra kick when you need it. My friends think it looks great, my wife almost divorced me because of the car payments and I think it is because it shows up her car of the year 300M Chrslyer. The A4 handles better and is more sportier and is a better bulit car.
my first Audi
This is my first Audi. I really wanted the 3.0, but couldn't find the one w/ the options/color I wanted (Bose, 6sp and something other than white or black). And since I had the "new car bug", I decided to get the amulet red 1.8T. No regrets though I was coming from a VW Passat V6 - the 1.8T on the A4 has enough pick up as far as I am concerned. Only 600 miles so far, but no problems at all (knock on wood).
Beautiful, with a few hiccups
Bought this car for my wife, who LOVES it. I love the styling, superb interior quality, versatility of the wagon. Problems include the well-known coilpack failure which completely disabled the car requiring flatbed towing to the dealership after 7,000 miles. Not what I would expect in a car of this caliber. Now we are hesitant to take this practically brand new car on extended road trips because we are worried about breaking down. Because of short supply, the dealership will not replace all of the coilpacks under warranty, only if they fail (and leave you stranded!) Rims have been a headache (see Suggested Improvements, below)
The Best Car Ever Built
This is my first Audi A4 and there will definately be more in the future. This is the best car I have ever driven. The handling , power, design, Interior, exterior - everything is superb. I plan on buying my wife an A4 Avant next year. Awesome job Audi!!!!!
Great Car
Excelent Car Audi A4 2002
CVT
I've always wanted an automatic that performs like a manual, maximizes gas like a manual, drives smooth like a manual without having to shift! Well, this CVT has it. 0-60 and mpg equal that of the manual and I have two hands to drive.
Audi A4
Fast, fun to drive vehicle that impeccably finished.
Best luxury sedan
I've been smiling since the day I picked up my baby. Rides awesome, minimal body roll, no under/oversteer thanks to Quattro. Interior space matches that of 3er and C-Class. Xenon is really bright.
So far, so good
Bought the car in December in Upstate NY, the next day it snowed..The traction control and ESP are awesome. I would have never made it out of the driveway with my old Volkswagen. I only have a couple complaints. The lack of horsepower (for those with new A4s the HP improves after about 3000 miles) We need the 4.2!!. Not enough leg room on the right side for a tall driver, significant brake fade under hard braking conditions, heavy and cumbersome in hard corners, but, I'm in love with it anyway!! Can't wait for the new S4.
Loved BMWs but Audi WON it now
The car has been all and more than I expected. Looked at BMW 330xi, Jag X and Volvo V 60. Narowed to Audi and BMW ended with Audi. Chose over the BMW because of price and got sick of the show off name and past experience of owning BMWs (cost and reliability durring and after waranty). Free maintenace (inludes all Brakes, Wipers etc.) that BMW did not have.
Fun Audi A4
Dolphin Grey is the color to get. Love the car and all the options (heated rear seats, 6-disc changer in dash, platinum lined interior, etc). I own a BMW 323i (2000) and this car drives sportier and smoother. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a $30,000 luxury car.
Well done, Audi
It's been fun to drive an A4.
Great Car
We just returned from an 800 mile roundtrip on 29.2 gallons of gas. That's over 28 MPG! The car rides like a bigger car, but handles like a sports car. The 1.8T has plenty of guts, and you know this engine is designed for the Autobahn, as she really purrs at 65, and would love to be unrestrained by the low speed limits on our (US) roads. Seats are very comfortable, and adjustable and our "black beauty" looks really rich.
02 A4 1.8 QM5 - Polar
WOW - I've waited a long time to own an A4 and I finally purchased the 2002 B6 platform. Simply awesome. Interior -no other company does it better. The exterior is sleek and sporty. The added safety and performance of Quattro make this car the best bang for your buck automobile in the Entry Sports sedan market.
