My 4th Audi and 1st bot with less than 100K on speedo. Bot used on eBay in 08 with 28K; two problems under warranty. Problem free ever since—now 65K on odo. Amazing engineering, ergonomics, design, performance & great fuel mileage for a V8, hiway—28mpg @ 70mph. Has Bose, performance pkg, with 18s. 0-60 mph in 6 sec., great handling for a luxury car. I would HIGHLY recommend this car, especially with the 4.2L V8. Just bought an '01 A6 Avant yesterday for my fiancé; a rare, low-mileage car that looks brand new. Will keep both for years. Of the 5 Audis I have owned only 1 has given me problems, and frankly, I bot it with over 100K on it and expected many of the issues. Will own Audis forever!

This is one great car. I was looking for the All Wheel Drive security blanket and after road testing AWD competitors I was about to give up when I found this beauty and immediately went for a test drive. I have never driven an Audi before and was not to sure what to expect. The A6 took off very smoothly but with a firm press of the gas pedal it launched like a rocket. I felt a sense of security in the stiffness of the body when taking some tight turns and the response of the steering was right on the money. Being a die hard Subaru owner for over 20 years it was hard to give into German engineering but needless to say I am completely sold on this car.

This is my second Audi. First was a 2002 A6 2.7t which I really liked. This new A6 is even better. I was leaning towards the Infiniti M35x, tried one with 12,000 miles on it, I'd rather keep my 2002 Audi. I'm glad I found this 4.2. I immediately knew this was the car for me. I also tried the Acura RL and didn't think much of it. Nice car, just not as good as the Audi. Purchased mine used with the sport pkg, advanced key, bose stereo, navi, and can't say enough about it. I'll average around 22 actual MPG. Excellent mileage for a 335 HP V8. We're now going to purchase a A4 for my wife. Amazing car!

Traded a my 740i in on the 4.2 A6 and have driven 5000 miles in 2 months. Not one problem and every mile was a thrill. i look forward to driving this every day --- rain, snow or shine. Outstanding acceleration, cornering and highway stability. Audi really got it right!!

Bought car CPO from a dealer. Used to own a 2004 A4 3.0 Quattro and fell in love after test driving the A6. Although used, general build quality is great and car drives smooth
