What you really need to know before you buy

I have two major issues with the A6. First is the extremely annoying stop-start of the engine each time you stop the car for a traffic light, stop sign, heavy traffic, etc. You can turn off the feature if you remember to do so each time you get into the car, but you will often forget. Even with the feature turned off you can "feel" the engine thinking of turning off. I absolutely hate this feature and will not buy another vehicle with it. The second issue relates to the very low feature of the tires. There are only a few inches between the road and rim. I've had two blow outs because of the narrow space between road and rim. One blowout was from hitting a curb and another from a pot hole. Both situations would not have happened with regular height tires. At about $300 a replacement, this is a very expensive problem.

Hands down this is the finest vehicle I've ever purchased. An absolute joy to drive in town or road trips.

You pay way for way overpriced Honda Accord

I got this car all excited by the Audi name. First, the engine is very loud, even when you close the windows you can still hear the engine, comparing it to my wife's MB E350, huge difference. The ride is rough, even on the most comfortable setting, especially if you sit in the backseat. Everytime we go out as a family, the kids would run to my wife's car. I am really disappointed at the infotainement system. Search and scrolling through the setting is so antique, I wish they can learn from Tesla or Volve how to make the infotainment system user friendly: easy to use and attractive. I don't think I will be keeping the car beyond its waranty, God knows what else Audi was misleading the customers in their products.

Luxurious ride with good handling. I'm used to driving a sports car and while it's no sports car it is very enjoyable to drive.

A visual esthetic high performance car. Update 2018 Sadly, I had to trade in the car for a Q7. Though there were no issues with the car itself, my surfboard wax was ruining the leather seats. Thus, the switch to a suv. The Q7 has the same motor as the A6 but not as quick or eyecatching.
