Overview & Reviews

Stretch an A4 platform, add rounded styling with plenty of edges for character, toss in a sumptuously comfortable interior available in several "atmosphere" styles, blend it all with traditional Germanic handling and what do you get? The excellent new Audi A6 sedan. Our only quibble is with the taillights, which appear to have been inspired by the Chevrolet S-10 pickup. The wagon is carried over from 1997.

• Roomy inside. Impeccable road manners. Tastefully out fitted. Exceptionally comfortable. Optional all-wheel drive system.

  Security - 1998 Audi A6
  By Quatt - August 23 - 12:21 am

  I owned this car for 2 years now and as I am speaking I dont know where it is now. It has been stolen 4 times now. If you live in a bad neighborhood, this is not the right car for you. Even a baby can steal this car. Other than that everything else is superb with this car. Fun to drive but starts shaking once you hit 80.

I have never had to put this car in the shop.

  Piece of junk - 1998 Audi A6
  By john9 - May 27 - 5:00 pm

  I cant believe the ratings are as high as they are. Way more repair issues than ANY car deserves. Now I have 120k mi and spends more time in shop than home! Expensive to get worked on. Many issues throughout life of car. Would never ever buy another Audi.

  Secrets to owning an Audi - 1998 Audi A6
  By webegeek - March 12 - 7:48 pm

  Okay, this was my dads car. He bought it after Id bought an A4. Two secrets: One, if you drive a lot of miles each year, they dont last. Two, find a good independent mechanic as soon as the warranty period is over. My A4 was costing me 2k every time I needed an oil change and I finally sold it. My dads A6 did better, he doesnt drive much and took it to a local place to have work done. And Ive lost count how many times hes lost the front lower spoiler on curb stops.

  Great Car - 1998 Audi A6
  By Great Car - December 29 - 5:55 pm

  I love this car! That said it takes a lot of money to keep it well feed and healthy. I bought it at a charity auction (Never buy from one, trust me). The car was low miles and a great price. Two months later the transmission went out and cost over 3k to fix. Once she was up and running again, its been great.

  This is a great ride. - 1998 Audi A6
  By ChuckMal - April 20 - 10:12 pm

  I seriously considered Mercedes, BMW less so before buying the A6. No complaints or regrets, this is a great car. Comfortable, safe, fast, secure. Well soon be shopping for our next car, and because of our experience with this one, our bias will be for Audis.

  BEST Car ever owned - 1998 Audi A6
  By WJ - February 16 - 11:07 pm

  I bought this car with 7000 miles on it and about 9 years later it has 229,000 miles on it and drives the same as it did when i bought it. The interior and exterior far surpass any car of its age on the road.

  Luxury Worth A Look! - 1998 Audi A6
  By Sean - October 4 - 6:57 pm

  Perhaps the first thought that comes to mind for many drivers is the Quattro AWD on this car, a feature that helps in the Snow Belt of the country. Yet beyond this, the handling is adept and definitely unique to this car nothing short of amazing, this car remains supple without wallowing. This car is solid, large, and comfortable for 4, the 5th will feel out of place, especially if a full sized adult. Power is just fine for this car, and gas mileage is suprisingly good (mid 20s). Quality of build is wonderful, although most repairs will require garage intervention-this is not a shady tree mechanic car. Audi went above and beyond with this car, and it really shows.

  love her - 1998 Audi A6
  By jimmrsn - December 28 - 3:06 pm

  I got this car from California in January of 05. She had 9800 miles on her and was stored in a garge for years and only driven to keep her healthy. I purchased her for $9800 and I have loved driving her every day since shipping her here to michigan. This car has had only a few problems. Front door locks would not release and I had to have the door locks replaced, and then the engine therm went and that repair cost more than fixing the doors. All in all I love this car.

  Cute and Diverse - 1998 Audi A6
  By Jeniver - December 10 - 12:15 am

  I love this car! Though I got this car used it was in good condition. It is a stylish piece of automotive niceness. It handles better then my other cars and speedy as well. It moves nicely, brakes great, and is very comfortable. Make sure you take yours to a person who knows Audis. I didnt and got a higher quote then if I went to the guy who did know what he was talking about.
