I love the fact that this car looks like a luxury vehicle, but it's affordable, gets great gas mileage, has a very roomy cabin, and all-wheel drive. It handles very well in all seasons and costs a lot less than most mid-sized luxury vehicles. It also has a six speed continuously variable transmission, a turbocharged 2.0-Liter inline-four-cylinder engine with 211 horsepower and 258 pounds of torque. It gets wonderful gas mileage: 24 miles per gallon in the city and about 38 miles per gallon on the highway. It has a very smooth ride, but the handling of a sports car. It hugs curves and is a very stable yet sporty vehicle. It comes standard with leather upholstery, heated and powered, pedestrian detection and mobile Internet, adjustable front seats, a sun roof, automatic climate control, Bluetooth connectivity, a backup camera, and parking sensors. It has a wonderful reliability score, and is rated number two on the "US News" Luxury Vehicle list. It also comes with a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty. Test drivers rated the driving experience of the Audi A6 as one of the top in its class.

This car with the revised engine output and steering dynamics is a driving pleasure. Turn the dual to sport mode and constantly spin those front tires at every launch as the green light turns. All the technology in the optioned packs is awesome. Adaptive Cruise control, SIM card GPS, SD Card entertainment and Wi-Fi is a nice package, as is DVD player. The standard sound system is good enough. I loved that car until we had the same problem as another reviewer. The engine blew with an unserviceable part. Replaced the engine at some considerable cost, only to have the same thing happen three years later. We decided to cut our losses and not try for a third time - didn't feel that lucky. The NRMA guys who attended to my breakdown told me this was a common problem as did the tow truck guy. I couldn't believe it. Still can't. A beautiful car just abandoned because of one unserviceable part. I would love to get another Audi but just couldn't. I also have a Merc 280SL and 300CE and even though they break down - they can be fixed.
