CarGurus Analysis: 2017 Audi A6

Summary
With 100 currently listed for sale and an average price of $17,102, 25.0% of 2017 Audi A6 listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2017 Audi A6 3.86 / 5 stars.
67.0% of 2017 Audi A6 listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2017 Audi A6 stands out as a midsize luxury sedan that blends understated style with a strong premium feel. Audi’s conservative design gives it a look that ages well, and the A6’s reputation for balancing practicality with sports-sedan character is part of what has long made the model distinctive. For shoppers, that means a car that aims to deliver luxury without being flashy, while still feeling substantial and refined.
For this model year, the A6 benefits from the fourth generation’s broad mix of comfort and technology. Standard equipment includes leather seats, a sunroof, automatic headlights, memory seats, push-button start, and Bluetooth phone connectivity. It also offers available features such as adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, night vision assist, a head-up display, and a 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system. The 2017 model year also brought Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to some models, along with standard MMI navigation, more trim levels with LED headlights, and a new top-view camera. Those updates help make the 2017 A6 feel more modern and easier to live with than earlier examples of the same generation.
There are a few tradeoffs to keep in mind. The available cons for the A6 include a front-wheel-drive bias, disappointing fuel economy, conservative exterior styling, and a poorly executed infotainment system. Even so, the 2017 Audi A6 remains appealing for buyers who want a refined, well-equipped luxury sedan with a quiet confidence rather than a showy personality.

This car embodies everything you want from a German sports sedan. Sleek, clean looks that stand the test of time, great tech even in an aging chassis. Unbelievably comfortable for long hauls, pick the right motor, and won’t be left thinking you need more power. Ergonomics are top notch as always,.

I own an A6 now and love the look and ride. If it werent for repair costs, I would give this car 5 stars. But the car requires A LOT of maintenance. Ive had multiple uncommon issues like front wheel bearings (twice), broken rear springs and some electrical issues. Repair costs are quite substantial for this car, much, much more than any other car Ive owned.

How much does the 2017 Audi A6 cost?
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Current Average Price | $14,408 |
| Year-Round Low | $14,359 |
| Year-Round High | $15,747 |
| Average Price a Year Ago | $15,753 |
| Change vs. Last Year | −8.54% |
Prices have softened 8.54% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.
There are 588 listings available, which suggests you have a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.
Is the 2017 Audi A6 a good car?
The 2017 Audi A6 is a balanced choice if you want a midsize luxury sedan that emphasizes refinement, comfort, and a premium feel over flash. It earns a 3.9/5 user rating, and owners commonly praise its stunning looks, comfortable ride, and high-quality electronics.
That lines up well with the A6’s use case as a quietly upscale daily driver with standard leather seats, a sunroof, memory seats, push-button start, and Bluetooth connectivity. If you want available tech such as adaptive cruise control, night vision assist, a head-up display, or a premium sound system, this model year gives you a lot to shop for.
With 32.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, there are still worthwhile opportunities if you compare carefully.
Is the 2017 Audi A6 reliable?
The 2017 Audi A6 stands out as a midsize luxury sedan that blends understated style with a strong premium feel. Owners often describe it as comfortable and high-quality, and some feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free experience when the car has been maintained well.
At the same time, owner feedback also mentions high maintenance costs and some performance issues, including engine leaks and handling concerns. For used buyers, that means long-term ownership risk is more about repair exposure and upkeep discipline than simple age alone.
What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Audi A6?
At 59.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on mechanical condition, electronics, and signs of deferred maintenance.
Because this model can carry higher repair costs, you’ll want to pay close attention to service records, warning lights, and how the car drives under normal and stop-and-go conditions.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Audi A6?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find attractive options if you know what to prioritize.
- Deal availability: 32.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 588 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 8.54% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 59.2% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $14,359, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2017 Audi A6's resale value?
The current average of $14,408 sits slightly below last year's $15,753.
That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point. If you plan to sell later, the current pricing trend means your future resale value will depend heavily on mileage, condition, and maintenance history.
For a future seller, a well-kept A6 with strong records should hold up better than one with visible wear or repair history. In other words, the car’s resale story is likely to be driven more by individual condition than by broad market momentum.
Should I buy a 2017 Audi A6 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2017 if:
- 32.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 59.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 8.54% compared with last year.
The bottom line: The 2017 is a strong primary choice if you want the updated features and a lower used price than newer examples. If you’re especially price-sensitive, you can also compare nearby years to see whether a cleaner or better-maintained example offers a better overall value.
