Audi A6 Owners, Detailed on, Anything relevant

EZ Boy

No Woolpad Butchers Here!
Any Audi A6 owners out there? I'm in the market for a 2.8L Quattro. Anyone detailed one, have a friend that owns one or has anyone driven one? Any info a blessing, thanks in advance.
 
Never driven the A6, but I drove the S4. It was the V6 Twin Turbo mill. When I took it past the Mazda dealer, I saw the salespeople stand up to look, so Audis are appealing cars. I enjoyed driving the car, and I know people that own the A4 love the car. The only complaint that I've heard of is the repairs. When I spoke with the Audi salesperson about the repair record of the Audi, he said "people who have problems will always complain, while those that don't have problems with their Audis do no complain, so the frequency of repairs is exagerated." It was kinda neat to be talking to a German guy named Otto about a German car, but his explanation didn't make any sense. I think that if you buy the A6, you'll enjoy it if you like to drive, but you should research its repair frequency. Just my $.02.
 
I have an '03 A4 1.8T. Luckily mine was made after the coil pack issues. My first German car, nothing but bliss so far.
 
Love the A4, plenty of aftermarket gear. Problem is I'm 6'2", 240lb and have a bady due in 4months. The A6 is in low demand and I can bag the extra wheelbase for the same price as a lot of A4 Quattro's which is odd considering the new price difference.

Otto's explanation is fair enough - we all know a whinger that does nothing else.

Fond of the German cars, japs can't keep up with the quality or ride. Every bastard and wanna-be ganster in Sydney owns a black 318. I just want to buck the trend.
 
A6

I own a 2000 Audi A6 2.4l but have driven the 2.8l quattro.

They are a very smooth car, enough to beet a commodore, but the ride comfort, safety features, creature comforts, handling and styling make it no competition.

The Merc E class is a little too conservative and its little bigger than the BMW 5 series in my opinion.
