2011 Audi A6 3.0T Prestige - A True Sports Sedan

After driving Lexus since '94, I got rid of my '08 LS due to quality problems / high price. I ruled out the Lexus GS because I drove one for 10 years and don't like the new ones + Lexus quality issues. I also ruled out the MB E-class (don't like what they did with it, all the plastic in it or its price), BMW 535 (insane price) and the Hyundai Genesis (can't stand local dealers), narrowing things to Audi A6 and Infiniti M37. The A6 is a much better performance car that is more fun to drive with styling I prefer - article on Car and Driver comparing A6, M37 and 535 is on point, particularly high RPM for M37. I am very happy with the A6 even though M37 may be a better value to some.

3L Turbo- a rocket. Handling is impressive. Never had a problem. Will buy again.

Amazing Sleeper

I purchased this as a used car with 139k miles on it, at the time of writing it has 144k miles and I have to say every mile has been a joy. The way the car accelerates brings a smile to my face every time. The all wheel drive is a lifesaver in MN. The interior quality is top notch, the car is almost 13 years old and there are no creaks or rattles, it's remarkable. This is my first car that I've bought for my self, I was able to find mine for under 10k in 2022, if you are able to find one that had extensive maintenance history like mine, it's a lot of car for the money. Keep in mind it's German so repairs are pricey, this week my high pressure fuel pump went out and the dealer wanted 2k for it, I was able to find a local shop to do it and it still was 1.5k. If you want one of these cars set aside at least 2k for repairs. I plan on keeping it for a few years until I'm able to afford the newer model. Overall I love this car and might even do a little tuning in the future as these cars respond extremely well to ECU flashes.

V8 is the better choice

I am the former owner of a 08 A6 with the 4.2 V8 engine. And I was looking to upgrade to a 2011 Audi A6. After reading Edmund’s review on how great the 3.0T engine was, I thought I could save $5K and buy the V6. I then went to my local dealership and test-drove the V6. And after the test-drive? Do not believe Edmunds, go try both and form your own opinion. In mine, no comparison with my 08 V8, not even close. The 0 to 60 thing, 5.8 sec. (for the V8) versus 5.9 (for the V6) are close, and are probably true (and no Edmunds, the V6 is not quicker than the V8, and did you really do your research, did you really test drive both models?). The 2011 A6 is an excellent vehicle.
