  Dead Solid Near Perfect - 2006 Audi A6
  By MJBatchelor - March 4 - 3:20 pm

  Only 1200 miles, so far, but a beautiful ride. Had a 1998 A6 for 3 years on lease with no problems. It just wasnt powerful enough. The new motor takes care of that problem. The build quality is simply fantastic. Paint finish and interior quality are excellent. The biggest thing is the Quattro - its like driving on rails, very confidence inspiring. Economy is good for a vehicle of this type. The MMI is slightly confusing at times but, once you use it for awhile, it becomes more intuitive. We have almost all the options (Technology, etc.), but the heated steering wheel (which just wasnt in stock.) The interior lighting, switches, etc., is simply best in class. We love the car.

  The shortest 5 hour drive of my life - 2006 Audi A6
  By Sean - February 20 - 6:04 pm

  I bought my A6 after extensive web, book and test drive research. I am a big guy, who has always bought cars that fit my appetite for sport and luxury. The A6 has exceeded my expectations and after Mercedes and BMW and Lexus were given their fair shot amongst others, I bought my 4.2 while visiting my brother in law who lives 5 hours away. By the time I arrived home I had mastered the MMI, Satellite Radio and Navigation systems, and was let down when I actually was at the end of my trip. I have never found a car so ergonomically sound, practical, powerful, and energizing, while pampering you all at the same time.

  Nice car - 2006 Audi A6
  By john - February 8 - 8:48 pm

  I have owned many Audis from the A8 on down. This is my 3rd A6. They have always been nice to look at but were short on driving dynamics. This car drives like no other audi I have driven, including the current S4. It is a large car that drives like a BMW. The steering/road feel is all there. I have had no problems so far and have very little to complain about. There are always things that disappoint like making the trip computer at option on a 49k sticker car. This has always been an Audi hallmark. My 85 4000Q had it standard. Other than the little stuff, this car rocks. jm

  car - 2006 Audi A6
  By deb - January 15 - 2:21 pm

  Never thought Id EVER drive a wagon again once the kids were grown. But this is easier to manuever than an SUV. It is really a great, responsive vehicle! I wish the cupholders were better positioned and without that rubber piece that keeps your cup stuck in the holder. The rear view mirror can be really tricky to put back on if it comes off (as ours did). The navigation system is great we have a BMW also and this navigation system is FAR superior to that!

  This is a machine! - 2006 Audi A6
  By Dawg Fan - January 10 - 8:44 pm

  I researched and drove the Mercedes E500 and the BMW 530xi before I drove this car. I went right back to the showroom and bought it - never looked back at the MB or BMW. The ride, power, handling, and technology in this car is head and shoulders above them. I get compliments from people that see this car at night! A real head turner. I love the MMI. The power in this 4.2 reminds me of my 2001 Corvette - this car may keep the Vette sitting in the garage under its cover.

  2006 A6 Avant Impressions - 2006 Audi A6
  By Northeast - December 18 - 12:58 am

  Ive had the 2006 Avant for 3 months now and its a great car. I live in the Northeast and the car sticks to bad road conditions like glue. Styling is more masculine than past Audi models, but the interior is top-rate. I spent months deciding between the BMW 530xi wagon and the A6 and did back-to-back test drives three times. The Audi is in a different class than the BMW. The 6cyl is plenty powerful, and my last car was a 2001 BMW 740il. Gas mileage has been stellar, and the MMI interface is far more user friendly than the BMW. For Options I suggest the sport seats, technology package, and the navigation. I had to get the 17" wheels and the sport shifters but would have preferred 18" tires
