Thinking of buying the 2003 Audi S6?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2003 Audi S6 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Thinking about the 2003 Audi S6? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
What to check on the S6
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 2 complaints with NHTSA, most often about fuel system and fuel/propulsion system; have those parts checked.
Specs, explained
Power comes from the 4.2L 8-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
A combined rating of 15.7 L/100 km works out to about 47 litres per 300 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $27.48 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$5,500 a year for 15,000 miles.
Space and size
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 4.91 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. At 963 litres, the trunk fits bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
A longer test drive
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the S6 on your commute before you commit to it. Try the S6 on your commute, then decide.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $274.80 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Choosing the right one
Within the 2003 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
When you know your dates
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2003 Audi S6 from us first.
