  Nice performance car for the money - 2001 Audi A6
  By 6sp manual - August 14 - 12:20 am

  I own a 6 speed and love it. I have enjoyed great mileage and its fun to drive. Every time I see the car I can’t believe the its mine. The engine is very sophisticated with 5 valves 2 turbos. What does bug me about the car is anti-lock brakes bounce back and vibration in the front end. I do get a loose feeling at low speeds in the suspension over bumps. I had the same feeling in my 96 A4.

  By grossman - May 29 - 8:44 pm

  Very reliable. Very quiet ride and great comfortable seating. Visibality is very good all around. Triptonic gear is great when needed. mileage short\ distances is 17. Miles per gallon using 87 octane. Turning radius is remarkable.

  A car that does every thing well! - 2001 Audi A6
  By Alan Bulkeley - April 14 - 11:27 am

  If this car were a woman I would marry her. The tiptronic shifts wonderfully and in manual mode holds gears right to red line. The quattro all wheel drive is excellent in the snow and when pushing hard through a corner. The coach work is beautiful. And the engine is a gem.

  Performance, handling, and overall quality very good. Very happy so far. Shopped around and compaired with other cars of this caliber, the all wheel drive was a strong selling point.

  6 Years of great Driving and Reliability - 2001 Audi A6
  By donschwinn - November 16 - 2:50 pm

  Im the original owner. 78k miles now. Replaced brakes and tires twice. Had 2 minor mechanical problems fixed under warranty. Gets 26 mpg on the highway 22 around town. It has the perfect combination of sporty handling and acceleration along with comfortable cruising. I keep thinking about a new one (the 6-year itch) but this one has a lot of life and fun driving left in it. This is my 3rd Audi--1988, 1996. Each was excellent.

  Inexpensive Luxury - 2001 Audi A6
  By Inexpensive Luxury - August 11 - 9:34 am

  Great car. Much more reliable than the 2.7 turbo. Comfortable to drive with a bit of sport to it when using the shift feature. Fuel economy could be better but is great for what is essentially a large car with all wheel drive. Plenty of room both up front and for rear seat passengers. Big trunk. Great handling and never slips in the snow. I can just jump in and go with up to 8 inches of snow. The only problem that I had was with the dash display fading but it was replaced under an extended warranty.

  Luxurious interior and nice ride, unique - 2001 Audi A6
  By LadyAudi2.8Q - October 7 - 10:19 am

  The car I bought had some maintenance issues before I purchased it. I have found a dealership that very professional and not overpriced. The quality of work is good. I also found parts on line to circumvent overpricing. The car is a dream. It needs the normal 6 yr old car things, but it makes me smile each time I get in. The interior design is gorgeous! Yes, Audi has a few minor switch, cup holder and headlight issues but those parts arent very high. The check engine diagnostics can be done for free at a local autoparts store. The fuel, air filters can be purchased in bulk to save $. It is the price for luxury and it isnt bad. I gladly drive it instead of the mass similiar car.

  Love my Audi - 2001 Audi A6
  By My second Audi - July 25 - 11:51 pm

  Wonderfully smooth car. A treat to drive, both in the city and on the highway. Lots of space for family, a big dog and luggage. For all of our needs, it is a great car. Previously, I had the Audi A4 sports sedan. Likewise, it was a wonderful car.

  Under rated at "best in class" - 2001 Audi A6
  By R - April 9 - 7:19 pm

  From the solid feel of the door handle to the unreal hold on snowy winding Connecticut roads, this is the all-around benchmark for mid-luxury. Before falling for the A6 4.2, I drove (among others) the 540, G35 and both Lexuses. Each excel in one area, but not one adds it all in one package like the Audi. And at a better price. The only thing missing for me is that its not an RS6. But that additional money is tied up in my weekend convertable.
