What Owners are Saying About the 2005 Audi A4

"Great and fun car....lots of go-power"

"4-dr, 6-speed, fun driving car"

"Awesome Car"

"I was skeptical when I first bought this car wonder what the maintenance would be like with an Audi, but it has been the best car I have ever owned. I bought it at 60k and it is now and 95k. Very reliable and fun to drive. The maintenance has been very minimal on top of normal maintenance (tires, breaks, oil changes, etc..) I have only put about $400 into the vehicle getting miscellaneous sensors and things fixed. The car also gets great gas mileage."

"Outstanding ride"

"The Quattro is with a doubt the safest I have ever felt driving a vehicle in inclement weather. The car is fun in good conditions too. I have had no mechanical difficulty at 55000 miles and counting. I have driven this vehicle cross country and maintained outstanding gas mileage cruising between 75 and 85 getting 28-32 MPG. In city there is enough power to drive it hard and have fun without killing your MPG there either. Sound system is good. The Paint has held up very well and the compliments I get on this ride are never ending. I would trust my kids to drive this car, I feel safe in it all the time. The vehicle tends to be a little expensive but to get this type of AWD it is totally worth it."
