ditto - you have no idea where your front right corner is; much better on the C5

Menu driven everything. Throttle mapping in "D". "Smart" wipers. That's about it

Default Maybe we should get a 'back up' camera for the front?

I'm sure some smart guy can figure a mod.

Default 1. Huge A-pillar with long nose makes it hard to see...

around center islands & avoiding curbs especially if you have tinted windows & at night!

2. Check engine light still appearing whenever I get a full tank of gas, I'm pretty sure this is a gas cap issue not sealing & giving the proper pressurization.

3. Lawyer screen

1. lack of MP3 capability.
2. lack of touch screen nav (it would be so much easier to enter locations...)
3. some rattles...

I also like the left door armrest comment...it really doesn't fit well compared to my old cars...just can't get comfortable in any position there...

Default ditto- CD in glove box. My S4 had the in dash 6 disc changer. Worked..

perfectly & was in easy arms reach for changing multiple Cd's on the road even! But then again with the advent of the mp3 & ipod maybe they thought ahead & said most people will be switching to this form of recording in the future.

They should have thought about a year ahead of that & installed the ipod adapter in the 05-06 A6's!!!!

Default One more opinion....

1) Better acceleration, with this much HP (4.2 and S6), the 0-60 numbers lag all competitors
2) Styling is too subdued (BMW-M, MB-AMG)
3) Needs more options
- Sport seats (BMW, MB)
- HUD (heads up display)(BMW)
- More wheel options(BMW, MB)
- Sound system, MP3, iPod, DVD, etc.(BMW, MB)
- Rear shades(BMW, MB)
- Pano. roof (MB)
