Repair costs on the high side but my A4 has been very reliable and fun to drive! Showing some body rust but expected for a car of it's age. It has actually ended up being quite the value in the long run. It's got plenty of life left in it. The radio LEDS have failed but still clear in the gauge pod. Car has 162,000 miles currently. Still runs well. Check engine light is on. At this point the car still runs well. Every mile is a bonus for a 20 yr old car that I can trust to take me out of town.

For anyone looking for affordable, fun, upper end car. The audi A4 is the car, I was shopping for german car with lots bells on it and the A4 was the car for me. I am a big Honda and I traded my Honda v6 for the A4, I felt that Audi is the higher end of a honda that will last you and run for ever and you pay for what you get. I could have gotten a bmw if I wanted to pay for all the standard options on that already came on the Audi. My next car will be the new A6.

It reminds me a lot of the 1980 VW Scirocco with 14 pound callaway turbo I had in high school. It's amazingly fun to drive and handles great for the price. I highly recommend it.

Having lusted over the A4 Avant for many years, my time has finally come! I just picked up the last 05 (old style) Avant at my dealer's on Dec 31. Light silver w ebony interior, Premium, Sport, Cold Weather & Sound pkgs. A manual tranny would have been my preference, but I'm already getting spoiled w the auto. It's tighter in the back seat than my '02 Saab 9-5, but the build quality, steering, stereo w XM, and yes, the performance, are top-notch. I can't wait for my first road trip in this baby.

Best Car I've ever owned

I absolutely love this vehicle. I would recommend this car to anyone. It has great acceleration for a factory stock car and the turbo kicks in almost seamlessly. The stereo is great. I have the Audi Symphony one. have only had minor setbacks such as interior map lights and window control light fail and the dealer fixed it no questions asked. Bumper to bumper warranty covers everything even the battery. Just recently replaced that. Audi roadside assistance very helpful and fast.
