Good video and review. You captured a lot of the intricacies of the different models and only missed a few things. You sounded like you know a lot more than my salesman. I had to teach him because I had researched so much I knew most everything. I picked up my 2017 Audi A3 Quattro Prestige model at the beginning of January and really like it. I think Audi hit a home run with it. I've owned four Mercedes and none of them compare to this Audi. I enjoyed your review.

Yes, the steering wheel is the same on both. What's missing on the Premium trim versus the Premium Plus is heated seats, auto-dimming rearview mirror, different trim pieces and standard push button start. And good luck! It's a great car!

Yeah keep using that mentality and make oil slash fuel companies richer while you get poorer In Europe, Audi’s home country, people use more diesel than gasoline and they don’t use premium fuel or whatever..! Maybe more “exclusive” sport cars or supercars which but hobbies for millionaires, but cars intended for the population in general, without being a small nich like supercars, need to be able to run on normal fuel I hate in fact to pay others for gasoline, I have an off road car (Jeep cj7) and I make my own fuel my other car is BMW 330d and I use normal diesel on it My dad has Ford F-150 and he also makes his own fuel in a home refinery that we built

@CarConfections 7 жыл бұрын
Hi there! I don't own an Audi, but it probably depends on what you're comparing it to. If you're used to a Toyota/Honda, I'm sure the maintenance is a lot more expensive... Compared to other Germans, I'd say it's about the same cost. Hope that helps :)
