    Great review, this is not an Audi advertisement, this a non biased auto enthusiast who is simply stating facts. BMW and Mercedes-Benz really need to watch out. This car is hands down one of the best I have ever driven period. Absolutely no one in the industry can match Audi's quality. I can say this after getting rid of two BMW's. I am glad to call Audi my favorite automotive brand. There are no words to describe my new A6.

    Having had a 2010 and 2012 the 2012 is head and shoulders above the 2010. Design, technology, features etc....
    Performance wise the biggest change was switching to the ZF 8 speed automatic so a little better fuel economy. Engine wise pretty much a carryover the next major engine change was around 2015-2016 where they went from 310 HP to 333HP. I need to find another 2012+

    yeah its 41,700 $ but its the base price so without any extars such like LED lights massage seats camera for reverse driving etc and its a 2.0 TDI i think. mine below that i talked about was the base form of 3.0 TFSI and with all the extras that i checked price exceeded 100k with all the stuff.

    The exteriors from Audi are nice, very classy and modest. But it's noting with a wow factor. The interior on the other hand has exactly that! It's a perfect combination of little gadgets and classy stylish materials. That how I like big cars; not screaming it on the exterior but be like a king in the interior! Beautiful car, I hope I can afford one one day :P

    Just bought the '12 A6 in Havanna Black... amazing handling, power, style and design. Very pleased with the ride vs. BMW, a close comparison, but this car in black with chrome trim, 315 HP engine with Prestige package.... is much more of a car than the 5 series.

    Also, they want to use a common cylinder block between diesel and gasoline models, even though the gas ones do not need such a heavy block. This, together with the engine which hangs transversely half a meter in front of the front wheels (as the platform is common with the vw passat and scoda octavia) show how "important" is the issue of handling to audi.

    @M0D3R8A i know, and for the A7 in Europe you guys have the 7-speed DCT, torque vectoring rear differential, and air suspension, we dont get any of that, same story with the A6, so if i want to buy this A6, i have to go with the S6 which is more expensive and hopefully they will offer these as standard on that car

    @BMWrocksalltheway Gotta agree with you on that comment about the Audi's tail light. The back is somewhat irrelevant compare to the front. The tail light has reminded me about the Maserati's tail light, minus the clear lenses. I'm expecting the tail light to be a bit larger, or has individual LED bulbs like the head light. Hope that Audi is going to improve the look on the tail light.

    @Amidat Yes I know I have discussed this already with the gentlemen above. He stated that the Audi A6 could surpass or price out to $100,000 which couldn't be further from the truth. My statement was that here in the US the top of the line Audi A6 meaning the 3.0 TFSI (Prestige) doesn't go any further than an estimated $73,000.

  • @iceonthemoon
    @iceonthemoon 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I believe the problem with the A6, and all Audi models, is the sporty suspension which reduces the overall ride quality, without dramatically improving the handling. The styling of the A6 is mature and modern, but the rear resembles the A4 rather than the smoother A8. I would still buy a 5 series over the A6, but personally the class leader for me is the Jaguar XF, or maybe that’s just because I’m English lol! Great Video btw (:

    I apologize. The BMW's i was mainly talking about were the ones that came out a 2 or 3 years ago or whenever it was that they changed the styling on them. I just went to the website and the new ones that are in production now do look very good. I have always liked the 3 series but once it got up to the 6 and 7 thats when i thought they stopped looking nice but the new ones do look better to me. However I must say I do love the look of the Audis in production now.

    @thestoryteller612 , You're right on the money! Audi always seems to have some outstanding feature that beats all other makes, but then when it comes to the overall package they still come up short. It's a third tier German brand, and that's not a bad thing considering the competition. They're in good company.

(which is which its so much lighter than a BM) which incidentally is NOT found on any VW brand... the a6 frame is actually the same as the A7 (which in turn is quite similar to the porsche panamera) the entire line is made for quattro all wheell drive and only a tiny minority are fitted with CVT transmissions for front wheel drive

    @GCr4ckeR Nope sorry I beg to differ. I dont know where you live but here in the states the Audi A6 is only available as a 3.0 TFSI engine with a starting price of $41,700. Opting for the top of the line A6 meaning the "Prestige" trim line which starts at $56,780 will only allow you to opt for exactly $15,275 of accumulated options when fully loaded at $72,930 to be precise. I have no idea where your getting that $100K number from unless your confused with the Audi A8.
