    So I bought an Audi today....

    Just traded in the Fiancee's PT Cruiser on an 07 Audi A4 Avant 3.2l V-6.

    First off let me say I hated the PT.

    Second I don't know anything about Audi's.

    Third I can't believe I didn't get another BMW.

    So now for some of the details on this new car. It has the Cold Weather Package and Technology Package. Was a 1 owner, who meticulously maintained it at University Audi in Lynwood. It does have 104k miles but it's really clean for that high.

    As I said earlier, I don't know anything about Audi's so help me out and tell me what to look for on this alien of a car to me.

    I'll get pictures up when I can.

    That is a sweet car. I love the B7? Body style, the front grilles are nice and aggressive. I say bag it on Rotiforms ;)

                  congrats dude, excellent choice for sure. You also made a good choice on the 3.2L motor. It is a pretty safe motor with no serious known issues..treat it good and itll last for alot longer than 100k Im not sure if they've addressed the problem but a common known issue are the ball joints on the control arms and tie rods tend to crack around 70-100k. Thankfully there are several vendors out there that offer an upgrade kit with some HD joints and bushings. Other than that, just make sure you do a drain and filter change on the trans every 70k(will need a vag-com if youre gonna do it yourself)

                  I just picked up a silver C5 A6 avant myself for the family dd..definitely a comfortable car to drive...especially the heated seats at this time of year!

                  enjoy it!

                    Yes I did buy it there, however I didn't buy from Russel. I talked to John, who some of you might know as JZM3. He did a damn good job hooking us up on top dollar for our trade and getting us right where we wanted our payment.

                              Very nice, similar to my wife's A3. Good daily driver car, and they have some decent performance. The A4's and A3's have gained hella popularity ever since BMW suffered a severe mental breakdown thinking people don't buy wagons or hatch's (dumba$$es)..
