A solidly built German car
I bought this Audi A6 quattro with 2.8 V6 after reading a lot of reviews about this car. There were too many problems reported with 2.7T, so kept away from that. This 2.8 V6 can surely use more power, especially at low speeds. However, if you are little patient, the speed builds effortlessly from about 40-50 MPH. The ride quality is awesome. Little stiff for city driving, however the solid grip it has on the road makes for it. The car is built like a tank and you feel it at high speeds. The car gets more and more stable with higher speed. This is a huge difference in feeling after coming from cars like toyota camry and highlander. I love the interior and exterior looks and quality of material.
I had no idea Audi`s were such BEASTS!
Bought it back in November of 2020 only pretty 750 with 179 on the dash not a single issue I put thirty thousand on it since then and my muffler is falling off when I bought it the headlight there's one missing and the wiper fluid never worked besides a leaking valve cover gasket and a leak in the power steering line this car has been completely phenomenal especially in the snow I would pass the snow plows like it was nothing following through to feet without a head start on my driveway a lot of the plastic from the interior busing in the leather is torn and bit but all in all many people mistake it for a much newer car than in 2001
A car that does every thing well!
If this car were a woman I would marry her. The tiptronic shifts wonderfully and in manual mode holds gears right to red line. The quattro all wheel drive is excellent in the snow and when pushing hard through a corner. The coach work is beautiful. And the engine is a gem.
Lots of Bang for the Buck!
I bought my A-6 2.8 Quattro new 2 years ago after extensive review and test drives of BMW 325/330 XI, Mercedes C Class and Chryser 300 M. Its been a great car for me. For my money its a super value in a near luxury car-much better than the competition. The workmanship and quality has been very high, the ride - quiet on highway and handles very well for a mid size sedan. Drives like a dream in bad weather with Quattro. Controls laid out nicely and great room in entire cabin-including rear seats where my friends of 6'5' sat comfortably-try that in the smaller compacts. Truck space is huge for a car of this size.
Fun to drive, but expensive
Bought this car in '04 as a CPO'd car for my wife. Love the 2.7T engine, a blast of a car to drive. Comfortable ride. The downside, expensive to repair, seems every year that we've had it, and especially since the warranties ran out, we've had a $1,500 + repair bill for the year. Recently found that the trans needs work, hopefully this will be the last major item to repair for a long time. We bought the car with only 33,000 on it, we've put maybe 36,000 more miles in 6 yrs.
