    Default Audi C6 Owners...advice needed

    I'm looking to purchase another daily driver in the next week or two. I'm seriously considering the C6 platform A6.

    Is this a smart move or not? What should I look out for, or should I avoid this like the plague? I'm still researching, so any advice would be perfect.

    Thx

    Any current or past C6 owners, what was your experience? Something to consider or walk away from it?

    I haven't heard any bad things about the last gen A6. The value is certainly there on the used market and it is a nice daily....esp with the winters we've been having in DC. Which motor are you thinking about? There are some great indy shops here in MD/DC that work on them for a reasonable rate. Good luck.

    So you're saying that if he parks the A6 next to an E60 BMW, the A6 will be a better car?

    I'm driving an A4, but my dad has that A6. He always respects the service intervals and has no problems whatsoever after 120 000 km... (only thing is he still can't use the GPS, but then again he's probably the only person in the country without a cell phone as well...)
