Default 2006 Audi A6 3.2 QUATTRO Opinions NEEDED on my DEAL...Update: BOUGHT THE CAR!!

Hi I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a 2006 Audi A6 3.2 Quattro from Pacific Audi

$15,109 for the car and an even $17,000 out the door with taxes, fees, etc.

74,000 miles. Clean Carfax. Icy Silver Metallic, Trust me when I say it's really clean exterior and interior wise.

Options include:
Premium Package
Bose
Adaptive Xenon Lights
Heated Seats
17 inch wheels
Lots more but those are the biggest

Here's a link to the ad http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst...150532696.html

So good deal or no? I'm just about ready to pull the trigger...THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I paid much more for my 2006 Avant with 89K miles a few months ago. But Avants have low liquidity and prices are made up.
In any case I think you get a good deal. especially if dealer will give you some warranty. enjoy.

sounds like a pretty good deal to me. Especially it comes with all the packages you mentioned. See if you can get them to complete the 75k mile service for you before you pull the trigger too.

Sounds like a great deal, I paid 25K about 6 months ago for my Avant with 33K miles on it.

Just make sure you know the history of the car well. Do you have a Carfax report, where and how often was it serviced, etc?

Yes, I got a full carfax and everything checked out. It's been serviced at that Audi dealership its whole life at proper intervals. All that's left for me to do is get it checked out by an independent Audi mechanic.

As far as getting a warranty I don't know how I can do that since the car has 75k miles. I'll talk to them and see what I can arrange.

Im not a 100% sure but I believe they've already done so. I'll double check. It's essentially an oil change and looking over some things right?

Since were on the subject of oil changes, how often do you l change yours? I hear varying answers from 5000-10000 miles. Or is it whenever a service is due?

Also any opinions on servicing the timing chain?

THANKS FOR THE RESPONSES EVERYONE! I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR INPUTS!

$1,900 in taxes and fees sounds excessive...what's the sales tax rate/amount, and what are the fees they're adding on?

75K is THE major service on the car. It is not a quick oil change. On my 05 4.2 they had to take the nose off the car to perform the service.
