2005 Audi A4

Pros: Excellent engine and transmission, luxury interior. Fun yet practical.

Cons: Expensive options. Needs premium fuel.

The Bottom Line: Entry level luxury ride. Fun, roomy and practical.

Review: Audi A3 has been released just two months after I bought my current car (an Acura RSX) so I wasn’t exactly looking for a replacement. The A3 is RSX’s direct competitor, however, so I felt compelled to check it out. Audis are particularly attractive to ...

Pros: DSG is the future, Affordable, Fun, The name itself

Cons: Options bring cost up, Front wheel drive, noisy 4 cyl.

The Bottom Line: This is the one Audi that has performance at a good price and coupled with the DSG is the 1 car I would get other than a 50,000 S4.

Review: Intro: I work for VW and audi and this is based on my take on the fully equipped 2006 Audi A3 we've had for 1 mo. This review is meant to be to the point and is for people who have mostly done a little bit of research on this car already, if you are ...

Pros: Fabulous interior, quattro, delightful engine

Cons: Small backseat, maintenance needs after 50K?

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this to anybody shopping the entry-level luxury sport segment. Its style and quality trump every competitor, and with or without current incentives, the value cannot be beat.

Review: Two months ago, I leased a new 2005 Audi A4 1.8T for one of my now almost 18-year-old twin boys. Because of favorable lease terms, I was able to lease the car, with a total of $3,900 out of pocket, for less than $400 a month for 24 months. Because ...

Pros: Luxury, performance and elegant

Cons: Pricey

The Bottom Line: Get what you pay for

Review: With improve exterior that sports a mean bolder look and interior that is fit for a king the Audi A6 is a perfect example of performance and luxury. Firstly the new grill that compliments the eagle eye lights roar beauty. The curved body style gives it ...

Pros: Interior, smooth transmission, rear seats, quality drive

Cons: No memory seats, steering precision, slight turbo lag

The Bottom Line: A superb car to own, drive and maintain. Recommended.

Review: I feel prompted to write a short review because of some of the reviews I read (including those for the 2004 version of the car). I have had my Quattro Audi A4 1.8T (Automatic transmission) since May 2004 and my wife and I have been very very happy with ...

Pros: Styling, power, sporty handling, AWD

Cons: Ride quality, needs 18s to look good, some iffy interior bits

The Bottom Line: Most people will find the 3.2 thoroughly sufficient. But those who desire more power will find it in the 4.2. What they won't find is a more luxurious car.

Review: The A6 was redesigned for the 2005 model year. I generally try to drive cars as soon as possible, but this one slipped through the cracks. Each time I dropped into an Audi dealer something else--A3, A4, A8, S4--seemed more enticing. Especially the S4. ...

Pros: Interior design, improved engine and steering

Cons: Heavy with too much mass in the nose, firm ride, tight rear seat, reliability concerns

The Bottom Line: Recommended for unaggressive drivers (or aggressive drivers who don't mind noisily scrubbing tires in turns) who put a high priority on interior design and a low priority on reliability.

Review: I've never been crazy about the A4 in non-S form. It wasn't particularly exciting to drive and seemed overpriced for such a compact car, top notch interior notwithstanding. For 2005.5 Audi has revamped the A4, updating its styling and engines and ...

Pros: I love the styling, the power, the handling, and the comfort.

Cons: Too much down time for major repairs.

Review: My 2005 Audi A4 2.0 Turbo is my dream car. I bought it fully loaded with all the bells and whistles I could get. I love the styling, the power, the handling, the comfort and all the admiring glances. Here come the but. In the past 1 ½ years I have had ...

Pros: Exterior, Interior, Sound System

Cons: Noise, Noise, Noise

The Bottom Line: Don't buy it unless you are deaf.

Review: When I was first looking for cars my main goal was something that looked good and the Audi A4 more than fit the bill. It's sporty, has a nice interior, and drives fairly well. The thing I cannot stand about the car is the noise. Noise noise noise. ...

Pros: All wheel drive!

Cons:  The Audi mechanic has my car more than me.

Review: I wil have to say the Audi A4 has been my dream car, until I purchased mine 4 months ago. It has been in the shop 4 times in 4 months with major engine trouble. I have had the ca madjusters replaced, coils 2x's. there is a loud tick in the engine that ...
