I had car since new. It's pretty reliable so long as you keep up with the maintenance and don't try to modify it for more power. Flashing the ECU with aftermarket program is a common modification that could easily result in more power, popular amongst young adults. But you sacrifice drive-ability and reliability. Aftermarket hackers are never as good as manufacturer design engineers, despite their attempted claims. Thus be very weary when shopping used car for modification history.

Overall, my 4-year experience with the A4 has been a good one. I concur with the turbo lag mentioned in other reviews on standing starts. However, at road speeds the turbo is much more responsive. I have had no mechanical issues with this vehicle that required service. The sports suspension and quattro make this car a pleasure to drive in any weather conditions. Traction in heavy snow has been fabulous. I've heard a lot of negative stories about the Pirelli tires the 2004 model came with (defects, noise, low tread life), but I have 38,000 miles on mine, and have had no issues.

Audi A4 Cabriolet experience

2004 Audi A4 3.0 quattro AWD 2dr Cabriolet (3.0L 6cyl 5A)

I was one of the early A4 Cabriloet owners. I now have 20,000 miles on the car. It has been terrific. It is quiet, sporty, a good road car for long trips, comfortable in winter and I receive many comments on how attractive it is. No problems since I got it.

As the original owner, now with 75,000 miles, I have only a few minor complaints about this, my favorite car of all time. Better handling, more comfortable and a lot more fun to drive than my wife's Lexus IS 250. The styling and performance are terrific. More power and better reliability than year models. One or the other of the tail lights have to be replaced every 6-12 months: I've now bought the tools and now do it myself. The cup holder is a bit flimsy, and the arm rest storage cover has an easily breakable hinge. Back seat leg room is very cramped for adults (a non issue for us 2 empty nesters). I just recently discovered the 12 volt socket in the trunk.

I chose the A4 Cabriolet 3.0 Quattro over the BMW 330ci, Volvo S70 Covertible, MB 320 Cabriolet, Infiniti G35 Coupe and others based on four previously satisfactory experiences with Audi. Their cars continue to offer an unbeatable combinatgion of some of the highest build quality, design, materials and performance at a very competitive price. My new A4 Cabriolet is (so far) the best of my Audis.
