Hello everyone, I'm in the military and am moving back to Georgia from overseas (been overseas for 9 years). I fly back next week so I'm car shopping right now. It's narrowed down between two Audi A6s and one BMW 5 series. All three are AWD and loaded. Since living in England, I have owned a 2004 BMW 5-series and a 2002 A6 TDI. Both were great cars. I just recently sold my Audi and I already miss it. But I miss the Beamer too, lol. I joined this forum because I'm leaning heavily back towards the Audis since the parts and insurance is a bit cheaper than BMW or Mercedes, and also, the price tag.

Both Audis are 2.0T Premium Plus quattros, 2013 and 2014. Both are pretty much identical with their features although the '14 has premium wheels. The '14 is being sold by a private seller and is $5k cheaper than what the dealer is asking for the '13. Both have 35k miles. If I go with the '14, I'll have the car inspected and road tested before I make the purchase.

I understand private sellers are usually cheaper than dealerships but assuming both CarFaxes are clean and both vehicles are well maintained; my questions are:

What's your feedback on these models?

Are there any issues anyone is aware of?

Thanks!
