nothing really retarted. You need to make sure to get a timing belt and water pump change at 60k to be safe but thats regular maintinence. Only really wierd thing i have heard is some peoples seat warmers going haywire.

i been through the same thing your gonna go through i used to drive a civic, the audi will be different, u gotta take care of that things alot more, repairs will be costly if u void the warrenty and the free maintence will save your ass a lil.

Hi Yall! Thanks for the props audiboy, *I am a chick btw :wink:* Stock 6MT they are running high 13's low 14's, but I have a few friends, gals and guys that are in mid 12's ...., one guy, low low low 12's w/ brand new to the US APS TT hoping for mid 11's in the spring after a few more upgrades and a good ole fashioned tuning.......one day.......I will have TT in my Z........
David K, the touring is the "plush" model w/ the leather appointed seats the bose audio and heated seats....the Track model has the brembo's, I am planning either a BBK or upgrading rotors this coming spring. (all about the mods, we show her and have a date w/ the asphalt when the snow melts :)--see A6 forum for my mods list.... )
[on topic] We actually just picked up our new A6 this evening (05 4.2L w/ sports package) and the Z is happily parked for the winter now *phew* and I can't wait to get her out on the open road and see what she is all about!!!! Looking forward to hanging out here and learning/sharing info w/ my new Audi family!!!! LaterZ..........
