Rob Monticchio I’m looking at a 2012. Has 100k miles would you recommend I get it?

@@honeylove4074 you got it?

LiL Loco No I ended up getting a Lexus is350

Honey Love good job, it’ll save you tons of money. I personally don’t believe people that aren’t mechanics or know at least the basics, should own a German car. They can be great cars (except Benz) but the owner needs to know what they’re dealing with and do constant maintenance checks

I’m thinking about getting a 2014 Audi A6 for 18k with 40k miles with the bumper to bumper warranty

Fast forward 10 years people are so soft that they can’t emotional handle seeing seeing a thumbs down.

Specially in 2022 with this California gas pricing)))

Comment what you’d like, but leave racism out of it..

What's it at now

@@zureai At least in my area I see them for $12,500 - $25,000 depending on the type, edition and stuff like that.

@@EncryptingJava Yeah they are still up there in price. But I’d say it’s worth it if you got money for maintenance lol

@@zureai I drive a 2013 Audi A6 Prestige, 182,000 miles. (Not Flexing). I love it, only issue I've had with it was it was leaking oil a couple years back but that's been resolved.

Or have a pretty face and marry a rich one :P

Or just wait a few years till they depriciate to peanuts :)

That's such a sexy car

How's it going for u? I'm looking at one also with 86k on the dash, same year 2013

Its like me.. pics/vids just dont do it justice haha

Exceptionally well, as most non 2.0T Audi’s are. Not to take anything away from the 2.0 TFSI and TSI, they’re good enough engines, but they just aren’t as durable as the 1.8 and 1.4 I4s, or the V6s and V8s. This 3.0T-based vehicle will be far above average for German reliability. And I do think it’s telling that I recently sold my trusted C5 A6, which has driven well for 18 years and no significant problems. Just shy of 120,000 miles on the 2.8L 30V V6, with Quattro, and the 5-speed automatic. Significant service was limited to one CV axle that needed work, one rear wheel bearing, and two flex pipes on the exhaust. These have been holding up just as well. Admittedly the electronics are something I’d look out for in the future, but mechanically they’re quite solid. The Supercharged and N/A engines really help reliability as well, as few Turbocharged German cars are very reliable.

@@DarrenPersad do you think this is a good first car?

Within reason, yes. I don’t know your age, or who you are, so it would be difficult to give a difinitive answer. If you’re a working individual with a good, sustaining job, then yes, these can be had for excellent prices nowadays, and maintenance isn’t outrageous for what you get. The value, luxury, performance, and safety propositions are all there. If you’re a student, I’d be weary as maintenance can still cost a fair amount, and without proper money to back them, it’ll fall into disrepair quickly. These cars are reliable, and they can run for a long time, but they require attentive maintenance, and preventative maintenance. Best advice - understand you financial situation, understand your mechanical capabilities or knowledge. If you cannot afford this vehicle twice over, it won’t be advisable to purchase one. If your mechanical knowledge extends to only oil changes and brakes, you may find yourself in over your head. If you’ve got both in check, however, you’ll find these will be an excellent vehicle that will serve you well for a long time. Just do not, absolutely do not get a 2.0T model.

@@DarrenPersad thanks for the answer, I'm 36 I earn 800 dollars a week,but I only pay 5 hundred in rent.

Without accounting for other necessary expenses, I’d still say that’s pushing it. It is your money, and it’s your decision, but I would advise to wait and save. Don’t finance, don’t lease, don’t do anything of the sort. Wait and save until you have enough to purchase the vehicle outright, and then some for maintenance, and make sure you aren’t waiting for lights or maintenance intervals - do things before they need to be done, keep the vehicles washed and cleaned, make sure they’re treated right. Once they are, they’ll treat you right.

It's actually easier to press over there than on it's old location which was opposite. The great thing about those interiors is they put the buttons and knobs where your arm and hands relax. When you sit in a chair to relax your arms aren't directly beside your legs, you have them a little more spread out. I just changed my car from the previous design interior where there was a separate start and stop button by your leg. I now see things that didn't seem to be a big deal and some things that were a bit of a design flaw, improved. Things are familiar, but better and I didn't really feel that I had issues...except the shifter. The shifter on the previous generation had a sport mode when you pulled it towards you one more notch beneath "D". Well, that made it difficult to access the drink holder and I would bang my hand on it because it was in the way. The newer one is spring loaded, like when it is in full manual mode. One pull down and it returns to center and puts it in sport mode. Pull down again and it returns to center, back in drive mode. In reality, there is no need to touch it. Pull the "-" paddle on the steering wheel and the car goes full manual. If you stop driving aggressively, it goes back into drive after about 5 seconds by itself.

Supercharged
