The 2006 Audi 3.2 quattro sedan is a new addition to the mid-size lineup this year.  It is powered by a 3.1-liter, 255-hp V6 engine and either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed Tiptronic auto/manual transmission.  The CVT is not available with quattro yet.  ABS brakes, 17-inch all-season tires, traction and stability control, front and rear foglights, dual front-side and curtain airbags, a first aid kit, and crash sensors are all standard on the 2006 A4 3.2 quattro.  Of course, all-wheel drive and a limited slip differential improve road handling in tricky situations.

The 3.2 quattro adds 12-way power front seats, leather upholstery, and real wood interior trim to what you get on the 2.0T quattro.  Other standard features include cruise controls on the steering wheel, a 6-CD changer, power lumbar support, a security system, keyless entry, heated mirrors and washer jets, and a split-fold 60/40 rear seat to expand storage flexibility.  Option packages give you a sunroof, heated seats, memory settings, larger tires, adaptive xenon headlights, headlight cleaners, satellite radio, upgraded leather, a ski bag, a navigation system, and parking sensors.  The S-Line Sport Package adds a firmer sport suspension, side extensions, a rear spoiler, badging, and aluminum interior trim.  2006 A4 3.2 quattro owners praise the handling, extra power, quattro performance, and overall luxury.  A cramped backseat and lack of CVT transmission option are some complaints.
