Buying the 2013 Audi S6

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2013 Audi S6 for sale by us right now. Here is the 2013 Audi S6 for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

Reading the spec sheet

The engine is the 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive and a 7-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.

At 11.6 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 35 litres of fuel. Driving 300 km costs roughly $60.90 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles.

Good uses for the S6

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What the S6 is like

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. For luggage, 453 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent the S6 for a week and see how it fits your life. A test week in the S6 tells you more than any review. A week with the S6 answers more than any brochure.

Which one to look for

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$4,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.30 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $203 at our price setting.

Questions first?

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

Rent it for a week before you buy
