RE: Would you buy an A3?
You know, I'm really trying hard to like this car. I've owned it for about six weeks now, and its been in the shop at least one day during each of them. Granted, nothing major has gone wrong...yet...but I'm thoroughly disgusted with the whole "Audi experience" thus far. Honestly, if anyone is seriously considering one of these cars look into Audi's reliability ratings. If this doesn't sway you, I'll sell you mine for $2500 less than its worth. I also have a used A3 in my driveway right now that the dealer had to pull off the lot, due to their being no rentals avalible for me while mine was serviced. They're asking 26K for it...haha.

RE: Would you buy an A3?
yea
same here
i'm no better than you
i'm really sick of my a3
maybe it's mainly cause mine was the first batch and they still had bugs too?
but no matter what
i'm still in love with german cars
and i know german cars cause trouble
but then the feeling is just so much better than on a japanese car
but if i had the cash
i would definitely sell my a3 and get a 33Oi
