The 2017 Audi A6 for buyers
No 2017 Audi A6 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 2017 Audi A6, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
A buyer's checks
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Specs, explained
Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, driving through a 7-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Rated at 8.4 L/100 km combined, it needs around 25 litres for a 300 km round trip. Driving 300 km costs roughly $44.10 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,950 a year for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Size and space
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The EPA measures its luggage space at 453 litres, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.
Try before you buy
A test week in the A6 tells you more than any review. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Try the A6 on your commute, then decide.
Choosing the right one
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Talk to a person
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
