Worth The Wait! - 2005 Audi A6
By Steve - July 27 - 10:28 pm1040 miles on my new 4.2 and not a single flaw. Exceptionally quiet and a smoother ride than what Ive read in various reviews. The car is fun to drive and the $9K extra for the 4.2 may just be worth the extra sizzle in performance. I ordered all the options, including the solor sun roof which works well during these recent hot and dry triple digit Nevada summer days. I too switched from a 2005 5 Series BMW purchase order after taking a last minute visit to the Audi store. Fit, finish, ride all helped to change my mind. Quattro is a must during those long Lake Tahoe winters, something BMW is still trying to perfect.

3rd Audi & love this the best by far - 2005 Audi A6
By Rich - July 21 - 8:07 pmWanted an 04 A8L and "settled" for an 05 A6 and Im very glad I did. Black/Amaretto combo is beautiful and the interior looks (and acts) nearly as big as an A8 ... but not quite. Great highway cruiser!

A new Audi fan! - 2005 Audi A6
By NewAudiFan - July 17 - 12:25 amI was in the market for a new mid-size luxury car: as others who have posted, I had my mind set on a BMW 5 series. I had a friend recommend I take a look at the A6 before purchasing my BMW and Im glad I did. From its supple luxurious interior to the many gadgets (advanced key, MMI and Bluetooth capability), this car has truly been everything Ive ever wanted in a car (and more). After performing extensive research, I found that the A6 was definitely the best car for the money, particularly when a comparably equipped BMW 5 series and Mercedes Benz E-class could easily cost you an extra $7 - $10k.

Audi A6, Awesome Car - 2005 Audi A6
By jerri - July 4 - 8:28 amIve owned my car 3 mos and Ive never been more pleased with any car before. Lots of power, sure-footed as a cat, sexy lines, smooth as silk, fabulously rich interior, and a head turner. What more can I say I havent gotten this much car attention since my Plymouth Prowler. And Ive had 2 M/Bnzs, a Jag, a Lexus, 2 BMWs, a Vette, a Miata and a few pick-ups & SUVs. I sorta wish Id gotten the 4.2 V8, but decided the 3.2 V6 was powerful enough. Besides, I could spend the extra $9k on a cruise and some clothes. My car is one major conversation piece. If you really check it out, you to will love it and become an AUDIPHILE.

This car rocks - 2005 Audi A6
By KevinGary - June 30 - 11:22 pmMy 05 4.2 is a great car. It accelerates and handles extremely well. Though the gas mileage is rather low and the 18" tires give it a harsh ride. It is alot of fun in the snow. I find myself looking for hills to go up. The swivel headlights make night driving a snap. The solar sunroof keeps the car cool in summer and warm in winter. The advanced key means that I never have to look for my keys. The voice recognition and bluetooth make cell calls easy. Though the MMI can be a little imposing at first. The satelite radio is a must. My children love the television monitors in the headrests, the heated rear seats and rear window shades. My wife and I love the safety of rear airbags.

creature comforts - 2005 Audi A6
By tom - June 18 - 1:42 pmI test drove the BMW 530xi series looking for all wheel drive to navigate colorado weather. I had my heart set and even put down a deposit to reserve the in-demand car. Then I decided to test drive the audi A6 to find out why every other car on the road in Boulder is an audi. Lets just say I drove away from the dealer in an 05 A6. The main reason I chose the A6 over the 530xi was the interior comfort of the car. It is truly luxurious as opposed to the stripped down beamer interior. The power is nice but nothing to write home about but the accomadations (mmi, nav, voice control, audio) make one feel like very executive.

First 2000 mile impressions - 2005 Audi A6
By JRamieri - June 17 - 7:34 pmThe car is a joy to drive. Has a lot of power and the "Sport" mode on the trans is great. I love the new aggressive looking front and the understated elegance of its syle. The interior is as close to perfect that I can think of. No rattles or noise. The MMI takes a bit of learning to master but once done is intuitive. The premium sound system is so good that I almost hate to get out of the car while listening. I actually wish I had a longer commute. I dont like the absence of body side mouldings for protection from the inevitable dings so I installed aftermarket ones. The voice commands and Bluetooth feature as well as the DVD Nav system are great fun. The Nav system is excellent.

Great Redesign - 2005 Audi A6
By DRM - June 15 - 1:10 pmThis is my second Audi and I love it! It is a sheer pleasure to drive, handles in snow with aplomb, has styling that turns heads, and the interior wow! So far this car has exceeded my expectations in a newly designed car from the ground up. I will definitely buy Audi again.
