This Year's Model Updates:

The Audi A4 has a few new powertrain options this year for the V6. Specifically, the V6 can now be equipped with a six-speed manual on all-wheel-drive sedans and wagons. The V6 can also be ordered this year for a front-drive A4 sedan with the continuously variable transmission (CVT). The only other significant change this year is the "S-line" name for the sport package.

Pros:
  • Sharp handling
  • Available all-wheel drive
  • Generous maintenance program.
  • Classy, well-constructed interiors
  • Precise steering
Cons:
  • Engines short on low-end torque, tight backseat.

  • A Great Automobile - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    My beauty is Moro Blue with beige interior. Options include premium pkg, technology pkg, sport pkg, vavona birch trim, Bose XM stereo. This is my second A4, the first was an Amulet Red 2002 1.8T w/manual shifter (I miss that color, wish it was still available). So Cals stop and go traffic necessitated my first automatic in 27 years. Although I miss a manual at times, I love the CVTs seamless shifting. After 17 months of truly enjoyable driving, this car has been flawless and it seems to get better with each mile driven. The car adapts to your driving style and fits like a glove. I love passing those monster SUVs getting 12 mpg, while Im averaging 35 mpg! This A4 is a great automobile.

  • I Love This Car - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    I have the 2.0 Quattro with a 6 spd and every option offered at the time. This car is a lot of fun to drive and certainly has more than enough power. Rock solid in the curves, even at high speed. The new 2007 navigation update made some changes to the radio that I am not crazy about. My car has 15,000 miles and is still a great ride. Just traded it though on a 2007 2.0 cabriolet. I have had many Audi cars going back to 1974 and they get better all the time.

  • Brain Washed by Audi! - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    After months of comparison (IS 250, 3 series, MB C230, and G35), I finally settled on the A4, and have looked back with no regrets. This car is phenomenal to drive - it hugs off ramps and high speeds, the seats are supportive and comfortable on long trips, and the interior design is top notch. I purchased mine with a red exterior and a black / silver interior and its eye catching! I also ordered mine with the sport suspension, which is great for windy road driving. The 4 cyl Turbo produces excellent HP. And for what youre getting in a car (entry level luxury sport), youre getting a lot more bang with your buck compared to the 3-series. I will come back to Audi for my next car.

  • Audi excellent vehicle - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    Ten days after getting my car I drove from Florida to Canada, I didnt have any problems. I enjoy driving this car so much that it only took me two days, I only stopped to eat and for fuel. This car is the best. BMWs are also beautiful cars but I like this car more because it shows more prestige and is more elegant. I cant wait for the B8 model.

  • One of the BEST - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    I did a lot of research on BMW, Lexus, Audi and US models. Settled on the Audi because of the quattro system, performance, and build quality. I have owned the vehicle for one year with no issues and it is still exciting to drive, outstanding on snow and ice. You cant go wrong on this one.

  • The A4 has grown up - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    I just traded in my 1999 1.8T (manual) A4 Avant for a 2006 2.0T with an automatic transmission. They feel like 2 different cars and I love them both. The 2006 feels more luxurious and adult-like, but it isnt a floaty car. I feel a tad more removed from the road in the new one but it handles like a dream. It is a blast to drive on twisty,hilly roads. It feels so solid too and the brakes are amazing. I hear the new A3 drives like my old A4. That makes sense.

  • Fun AWD sedan with sporting qualities - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    Ive loved my Audi since the day I picked it up. Build quality of the vehicle is amazing and the interior is top notch. The full time AWD system is great in any type of weather. It especially compliments the manual transmission providing little to not slip off the line. Engine is powerful and pulls like a v-6. Only thing I would change would be to order the S-Line sports package. You get the looks of the more expensive S4.

  • Not your soccer-moms station wagon - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    Its been 7 months of sheer driving nirvana. We have an almost fully loaded version. At first I thought it was silly to have so many add-ons, but honestly cant say I dont appreciate them all now. I love the S-Line package, very sporty and aggresive looking, soooo sweet on the twisties. I also love the new larger front grille design. I wouldnt change a thing on the exterior styling, perfectly sporty yet understated. I wouldnt have a problem recommending this car to anyone.

  • Best Car Out There - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    If there were a stability award for most stable convertible on the road, then the A4 cabriolet would win it! I loved driving my cabriolet, especially because I live in Florida. I had a couple problems with it, but other than that, it was perfect. I recommend this car for someone who is looking for a sports luxury compact convertible all in one, for a reasonable price. I especially like the interior design.

  • great car, LOVE it!!! - 2006 Audi A4
    By -

    The entire experience from the sales person to paperwork went smoothly. From the moment we drove the car off the lot, we knew we made the correct decision. Comparing the BMW 330 with our car, leaves us wondering why people are buying the other. From this moment on, we are going to own the Audi!
