  • Great balance of power security and fun - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    After trading in a lexus gs300, I couldnt wait for the first snowfall. The salesperson told me not to bother getting snow tire - he gave me his cell number and told me he come and push my car if it ever got stuck. Hes was right. I get great peformance and no white knuckles in the chicago winter.

  • Finally! A car that exceeds expectations - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    I have owned a Benz (1998 E320), Corvettes, Olds Aurora, ... but this is the nicest car Ive ever had. A vette is a vette (tight/sporty), but this car handles better than the Benz and was more reliable than any of the 10+ new cars I have purchased. Were buying a 2004 A6!

  • Love my Audi - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    Not since my 89 Acura Legend have I driven a car theat cost me so little in repairs. The car has been completely reliable, so much so I fully expect to get the next version A6 when it comes out in 2004.

  • No Complaints - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    I have owned SAABs, Volvos, MBs and BMWs, but this is the finest automobile I have ever owned. A couple of problems in the beginning, but AUDI fixed with no hesitations (including replacing brake pads at 14K and entire clutch assembly).

  • My 1st Audi there will be more - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    Comming to the end of a 3 yr lease, this was my 1st Audi. When I got it I chose it over the Mercedes E400 with all wheel drive because it met or exceeded that car feature for feature, had much better acceleration, and had the design/feel of a sports car vs. a sedan. Every button is where it should be. I actually like the simplified navigation system (taking route a turn at a time) as opposed to other digital map implementations. I never expected extra convienences like fold down rear seats to expand trunk space. Pure fun to drive alone, or chaufering others.

  • Scare the kids with this powerfull V8 - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    I bought this car used with 7000 miles on it at the audi dealership, audi assured warranty gives me peace of mind. The ride is great overall, super responsive, smooth, fast, but with the standard 16" wheels, handling is a bit spungy, I upgraded to 18" rs4 wheels w/ bridgetone potenza s-03 pole position tires (great tires for this car, though Id get lighter wheels if I do this again. Actually I would buy this car only with the sport package, as the standard seats dont provide adequate support, especially for the passengers. The kids love the car (we have 2 and actually like having two sculpted seats in the back).

  • A year after the honeymoon, still sexy! - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    I came from a 2000 Passat 1.8T. I loved the Passat and had it not been for the Chrome trim and taller greenhouse, I might have gone with the B5.5 model Passat. But the A6 seemed to tie it together better than both the Passat and the A4. The car has got looks, more than enough power for civilized driving, plenty of room in a shiek cabin, and the road manners of a locomotive- meaning it sticks! In good weather its nice with the roof open and Bose stereo up, but this car even makes bad weather fun to drive in. Comfortable, stable/predictable, solid, etc... I knew this coming into the relationship, and I have not been let down yet.

  • Fantastic Vehicle - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    Looked at several vehicles when purchasing this vehicle. This is the best value vehicle I could find for the price/performance. Have had this vehicle for twenty-seven months and absolutely still love the vehicle. Just had my 30K maintenance checkup and rotors/pads were replaced (dealer initiated replacement). Nice to have maintenance warranty.

  • Better than a Camry and even a MBE320! - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    Looking to replace our 1993 Camry, we looked at five different vehicles-- Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mercedes Benz, and VW. The Audi A6 has the best interior bar none I was extremely disappointed with the MB--they are selling status or prestige, but not quality. The VW is a close second, but has unresolved reliability issues, but the body is similar to the Audi, of course. Only problem within 30days was a HID xenon headlamp which was replaced under manufacturers warranty. Otherwise, what a wonderful car...

  • Audi Surprising Satisfaction - 2001 Audi A6
    By -

    When I purchased the Audi, I had driven a reliably Chevy Tahoe for three years to recover from a Lemon Lexus... I have been incredibly satisfied by my purchase of a dealer demonstrator. This car is the most exciting drive: it combines superb road feel with precise handling in a luxury envelope. In one day, Ive driven 700 miles in my A6 comfortably. So good, my best friend bought one just like it!
