I am 33 and just bought my first audi. 03 a6quattro I can barely afford it with the huge mortgage so praying to get lucky with maintenance. I stuck to honda's in my 20's and never spent a dime! I have had the audi for two days and already had the no. 4 ignition coil go out. Thank god they fixed it for free. I guess the young guys are true enthusiasts and can do the maintenance themselves.

I have an honest question for the 18-25 crowd...
what jobs do you have/where do you work/how do you afford to own, drive, maintain and MOD these cars at that age?
I do mean that with all due respect - I am serious...
anyone want to weight in?

Im 22, and i just bought my first audi about 3 weeks ago its an 03 A6 3.0. Love it! and everyone i know thinks its a great car for me. ive always been a lincoln mercury guy. my first car when i was 17 was a 1984 Grand marquis. that broke down and i gave it to my cousin about 8 months after i got it from my neighbor. i took my moms 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII and drove that senior year of highschool up till march of 2007 and i got myself a 1996 Mark VIII. so we have to mark 8s in the driveway that i was using. then i got in a totaled wreck 4 months after i bought the 96 mark 8 and just stuck with the 94 mark 8. starting about end of march this year i was looking around for a car to be the replacement for the 96 mark 8. in this order i looked at 1987 Cadillac fleetwood brougham, 96 Lincoln mark VIII, 97 Lincoln Mark viii, 01 Audi A6 2.7T, 02 S4, and then the 03 A6 3.0 and thats the one i bought. Im not sure how i fell into the whole european thing, i never disliked them at all but i just never considered them. i was always in the big american luxury boats. but the euros just hit me and i realized that i could actually afford some of them from 99-03 if i just kept my eyes pealed and found a good deal, i looked at all midsized bmw, benz, jags, volvos, audi, VWs, and leexus as well. im glad i found this audi, i plan on keeping it for a long time. its a nice car and looks great most of my friends and family think its a huge upgrade from the old 94 lincoln. i still have that car of course i wouldnt get rid of it for the world. the problem is deciding which one gets to have garage time and which one i should use! the audi gets used the most of course, the lincoln sits most of the time i try to use it more than once a week. But the audi usually beats it!
