Used 2006 Audi A4 for Sale near Illinois

A great car with sporty performance and luxury feel.

Summary: Performance is sublime, torque right through rev range. Superbly comfortable on long journeys. Great handling (viva Bridgestone Potenza tires!) Stunning sound system, music rules :) Brilliant service from Audi SA Will never part with it - saving for A5 :) Review: I bought the car brand new, and Audi were really terrific in terms of sales support, and good customer interaction. I love the car, its fast enough to be a thrill to drive, but still leaves you feeling safe and comfortable. I once took a wrong turn and ended up on a gravel road, and driving too fast on a road I didn't know, I came over a steep hill and all 4 wheels lifted off the road, when the car landed on the gravel, it started to slide... before I could react, the ESP kicked in and the car corrected itself. Awesome safety, awesome handling, and stunning performance. In 2nd and 3rd gear, you get brutal acceleration that throws your head back into the headrest, and it doesn't let up. For lazy highway driving, there is torque in every gear from 2000 RPM - that FSI technology really is fabulous. I really have zero complaints about the car - there is not a thing in it that I can fault - every detail is there for the driver: - automatic lights that turn on at dusk, or in underground parking - automatic wipers that keep your visibility good - a perfect cockpit, everything is clear and intuitive - great gearbox, smooth and easy shift - superb fuel economy, I average 9l per 100km in town (heavy traffic), and on the open road, 6.7l per 100km with an average speed of 125km/h -- for those of you that know me - that's hammering it! I love this car, and the only reason I don't have an A5 is because I refuse to trade my A4 in for the A5 - I cannot bear to part with it. The experience of buying, owning and driving this car has turned me into an Audi fanatic - I will never own another brand of car, unless I win a lottery and get a Lamborghini :)

Excellent sports touring car but if you go into manual shift or S automatic your mileage will drop. Average 35mpg on trips from KC to Iowa routinely. Only wish it had a newer head unit for the sound system with an USB / auxiliary input for my iPods.

The braking and handling for this car are amazing for a normal sedan. The build quality is very good. The interior and exterior of this car is very good and it has a lot of attention to detail. The car is fun to drive and comfortable at the same time.

Not one problem with this car except expensive sporty high profile tires wore out after 15k miles. I think a little toe-in on the front suspension is to blame. Othewise, this car ROCKS. Great mileage, fast as a bullettrain, hot to look at, unparalled interior, fantastic radio, sunroof, heated seats, rides like it is nailed to the street. Such an awesome care. Drawback is small back seat. Not good for real people, this is a sports car.
