Default A6 in my future?

I'm looking at possibly purchasing an A6. I'm quite familiar with the Porsche world, but Audi, not so much.
I have a chance to pick by a CPO 2016 A6 3.0 Prestige for $40,000 from my Porsche-Audi dealer. The car has 40K miles and is nicely optioned, including 19" Sport package, cold weather package, driver assistance pkg, among others. It also has red-painted calipers. The car is a one-owner and was sold new by the dealership. it has 46 months of warranty left.

Is there anything I should look out for or be concerned with? All services have been completed and the car was CPO'd just last month.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like a decent deal. I'd try to get them down a bit on price, but it's not a bad price, either. You didn't mention if it was a 2.0 or 3.0, but they are both good engines. The EA888 is probably the most manufactured engine on the planet (that's the turbo 4).

Seems a bit high of a price for 40k miles. I would try to get a little more off since the 2018s will be out soon.

Sounds like a great car. Later C7 A6s are pretty much bulletproof. I'd see if you can get AudiCare (prepaid maintenance pkg) thrown into the deal. GL

Bought my 3.0 about a year and a half ago and just crossed 75k (put 35k on in that time), it's been rock solid. Being a p-car guy myself I had some reservations but I can tell you I love my A6 and have zero regrets buying it.

I've had my '16 A6 for about a year now.
Wonderful car.
Sport and Driver assist are great.

Thanks for the replies.
Dealer had the car listed for $41,944. Today it was $41,444.
I have offered $37,000 and he has suggested $40,000.
Haven't pursued the deal all that hard as I still have my 991s Carrera in the garage.
I may also look for a car with less miles. I much prefer a prestige package car with sport package but there doesn't seem to be a lot of them out there. Do not want a black car as I have other things to do with my time.
We shall see how it all works out.
Again, thanks for the insight. It's much appreciated.
