As an owner of a '00 A6 2.7tq I have a love hate relationship with this car. On one hand the car is fast, beautiful and handles well. On the other VAGroup cars are not the highest quality. This car has had so many recalls that I feel like it should live at the dealership! I doubt that I will ever own another VAG car again. This summer will most likely see the Audi replace with a Volvo S60R.
