| Price of the Audi A6 / S6: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 300hp 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Pricey, especially with options, but no more so than its direct competition. Still cheaper than an equivalent M-B or BMW. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Not a lot of 26 year olds in my town are driving the car i have so i get looks allll the time. but anyway, Depending how much money you have to put down and make, will determine if u have a 500 $ payment since i was 11k upside down on my trade in. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Price is high...but all cars in this class have a high price. You get what you pay for. :) |
| 2006 | 4dr Wagon 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Over $10k more than V70 |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Full price - no discounts or concessions |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 2.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | it is a pricey car in an absolute sense but a good value vs. bmw 540 |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 300-horsepower 4.2L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | The car is was very expensive, and hence payments high. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.7L V6 6-speed manual AWD | It can be quite expensive, though a used A6 over 5 years old will drop in price dramatically and become an excellent deal. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Actually I wouldnt know because i have not had to take it to a Audi Shop for anything serious. I do always have to reset my auto power windows and the service engine is on alot,the gas gage sometimes doesnt move, and seems like the fan in running all time |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Audi woud not try to repair until a system or part totally failed. I was eventualy informed that they wait to replace something that fails so they can send it back to the manufacturer for a credit. |
