Ultimate Daily Driver - 2003 Audi S6
By evo_z - February 24 - 5:06 pmI got this car because i am tired of SUVs slowness and bad handling. but i do need the utility part. 340hp make ur right foot feels good all the time, and the cars look will never get u the bad attention from cops. very well build, every little details that shows great craftmanship. enjoy drive it everyday, every where. and the good part is it does not bother me with TPMS, non-seat belt warning those extra annoying features. Well, Bad thing about this car is expensive to fix, timing belt cost more than $2500. Also all the audi/vws cockpit control buttons letter ez to wear off, make the car looks older. try to upgrade but audi do not offer V8 wagon no more, and Q7 just not as sharp!

Elegant Mule - 2003 Audi S6
By AudiNut - November 16 - 4:36 pmIm an Audi Collector. Which is why I bought this car. They are relatively rare for the US market. Its a powerful beast and holds the road. It snugs right into the fold of the B5 S4 & D2 S8. Although I have to say~ although similarly outfitted, the S8 holds its weight better than the S6, thus, it is faster around almost any track under various conditions. The offset to this is cargo space. The S6 has its place and I love it.

Excellent Car!!! - 2003 Audi S6
By rlw - April 11 - 11:57 amThe car has great power and stability. Quattro handling is excellent in snow. The flexibility of the transmission from full auto, sport auto to pseudo manual with paddle shifters is great. I never think twice about power to maneuver. I look forward to driving the car every time. Also, the lower/wider stance keeps the car firmly gripping the road and gives it a great look. It is the perfect blend between utility and sport.

This car is wonderful. - 2003 Audi S6
By maastrichtian - March 5 - 3:27 pmRecently purchased this car Audi CPO. Drove it 1000 mi home - It was like a vacation. This car is perfect. Everything from the dashboard lights to the advanced braking system work in perfect harmony. Some notes: leather seats without alcantara insets are simply TOO slippery for spirited driving. I spent a lot of my trip home planted to the door because I slipped out of my seat. (Learned to offset that a little by stomping on the dead pedal.) Probably wouldnt be an issue for a wider person. Yes, you get terrible mileage. It IS worth it. If youre doing mostly highway miles (like me), youre getting about 18 mpg, which isnt horrible. City? Hopefully you dont drive very many miles :)

Great family car with spunk. - 2003 Audi S6
By irekski - September 9 - 2:00 amWeve owned the car for over a year, and we enjoy driving it very much. Its powerful, but also practical. Its great in snow, too, provided you get yourself some winter tires.

The do it all super car - 2003 Audi S6
By bdaquila - May 19 - 2:00 amI have been searching for five years to find the ultimate combination of performance, practicality, luxury, and understated styling. This car has and does it all. While the RS6 beets this hands down, this car has more than enough oomph and rail-like handling to make me smile from ear to ear. Beside, have you tried stuffing a few kids and a few dogs with associated gear into your uber-sedan for a treck acroos the country? Also, exactly where do you live that the roads and the cops will let you test the limits of your double turbo Porsche?

Audi doesnt get it yet - 2003 Audi S6
By mountains - March 7 - 2:00 amThe car is really fun to drive, but the front seats are not the Recaros with the adjustable thigh bolster that the manual shows and there is very little thigh support. The real problem is Audi dealers. They never tell the whole truth when you buy the car - every deal is a one- shot relationship. Until Audi gets its dealers to act like human beings, buying and owning an Audi will be a constant source of irritation and frustration. Is it worth it? With all the competing products on the market, I doubt it. Audi dealers are the worst I have ever encountered.

Extraordinary - 2003 Audi S6
By Vincenzo - February 23 - 2:00 amI drive this car in extreme conditions, and on uninhabited secondary roads,and highways, its performance is spectacular. This car has been through deep snow and ice conditions with amazing stability and confidence. There are still a few places out west where you can push a cars limits , this car has seen speeds of 164mph! It remained as stable and quiet as it was at 80.My dealership is as great as the car itself,reliable,courteous,efficient . They know how to treat someone who loves cars and pays that much for one (they are a value at $62,000). Audi should be as proud to have their products sold there as they are of selling them.

The wagon that thinks its a sports car - 2003 Audi S6
By DHH - January 27 - 2:00 am"...does not display the power/style differences over other models to justify the extra cost...". Well lets see, the only other real competitor is the Mercedez Benz E320 4Matic wagon, which has 221hp compared with the Audis 340. In terms of style, I like them both. From the front, I have always liked the E-Class, but after that, its all Audi. The same goes for the interior, which is top shelf. Is it worth the money? As someone who loves sports cars, but also has a family to think about, this car does both, and brings a smile to my face whenever I drive it. So for me, its worth every penny.
