C6 A6 in the U.S.

Deutsch · 10-16-2005, 10:55 PM

I dont know what it is, but on a small scale it really doesn't seem to be selling that well here in SoCal? I'm just wondering what it's like in other places? The car has no rival when it comes to build quality in it's class. Unfortunately though, many many people here don't buy their cars for value, quality, or heritage for that matter, but more so to keep up w/ the image of the rich and famous, sad world we live in. Also goes to show you just how many people really have no passion for cars and don't know a darn thing about them. More for us then....

I haven't seen any. Im also in SoCal though. Audi is a tough franchise so I've heard. Ever since that 60 minutes episode.....

I'm in the East coast (VA) and I don't see many A6's either... many more Eclasses and E60s. I'm curious as well, because there's no reason the Audi shouldn't be doing better.

My guess is that the value of the car here is not as good as Benz and BMW?

In Sweden you can actualy see a lot of C6 A6 if you compare to E-Class and 5-Series. E-Class and 5-Series was relase 2-3 years before the C6 A6 and now it feels like there are more C6 A6 than E-Class and 5-Series.
I think the A6 is a hit in Sweden beacuse it not such a eye-pointer like Mercedes or BMW and people in Sweden are kind a in shame if they drive arounf in a Mercedes or BMW. The A6 gives you luxury, quality, design (love the new grill) and class without feeling snooby.

I own a C6 A6, but if I would buy a new car today, I would definitly buy i Mercedes CLS 350CDI or CLS350. It must be the most beautiful car in the world, ever built. All the new Mercedes have great design, love the CLS design feeling on new M-Class and B-Class.

Its not a very popular car in the states in general. You will see more A4's and A8's than the A6 for sure. It was never a heavy hitter. Great car nontheless.
