It's at a VW dealer, they're asking $15k.

Default seems a fair price
assuming it's had timing belt job done. if not, count on that job costing neighborhood of ~2k from indy shop.

just from wandering forum and seeing things on lots... mid teens for a 2001 4.2 seems fair. if its got sport seats and sports suspension... that makes it an even better deal.

Default I am on my 2nd A6, do not pay anywhere near KBB or Edmunds
The realworld values of Audis are much lower than the KBB or edmunds

Nada is closer, but still high. Ebay completed items is a good place to start,

Default 2nd on CEB's S6... I've ridden in it...it's spotless and solid.
(his car felt like my S6--and mine had 37k on it at the time)

15 about right. Just traded in my 02 4.2 w/84K on it, dealer listing for 19K.

However, bear in mind you need to expect average 2-3K/year for repairs.

Edmunds is lower than NADA.
