About 3 years ago, I purchased my 2012 A5 Prestige and have thoroughly enjoyed it since. I bought it kind of blindly as I only knew the brand existed, but didn't know the trim levels or anything else, so I got really lucky. It is the Monsoon Grey exterior with Beige interior. The video describes the car extremely well. But on the exterior styling, I think of the front to back upper lines as the Lateral Lines on the sides of sharks. Subtle aggressive looks. Almost too luxurious for me, so I went shopping online and got Laser Cut, Carbon Fiber covers to do away with the fake wood trim and basic black. However, I did use lots of discretion on how much to add. Not like one guy's car that showed no leather, plastic or brushed aluminum, because he went too overboard on the carbon fibering. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone looking to get something zippy, and attractive. BYW, this was my replacement car, from a 2011 Ford Expedition. Got tired of gassing every 10 days for a 26 gal. tank, way too expensive, even though it was getting regular. This one requires the premium gas, but at 15-16 gal. a visit, and better MPG, it so works for me.
@@finaldreamerx Hey Randy what oil problem ? Do the 2.7 and 3.0 diesel engine burn too much oil :) ? I am considering buying one soon and I was wondering if they burn too much oil.
Double exhaust, not dual exhaust*** But awesome reviews. I love that you specialize in common used vehicle picks and how they stand up even if they are a bit dated for some. Love it. Keep it up!
I'd likewise go for the A5 unless you need a use able rear seat. The smaller size makes it more fun to drive - the A6 will be a little smoother and more luxurious if that's what you're after.
There is a car lot near my house selling one for 6k. Is this a reliable car? I don’t expect it to be honestly. But it looks so nice I feel in love I just don’t want to fall into a money put in terms of taking it to the shop. Is this car a bad buy in terms of reliability or are they strong
I got a 2011 A5 in base also abut a month ago. 77k miles on it . However mine had a couple like the curve lighting headlights . Debating doing the facelift to it though .
@@Doggmatic_ I mean an Audi is a luxury car and unfortunately most of the repairs show . The 2013 we’re supposed to have the updated chain guide and transmission problems fixed . Typically though if it’s not low mileage you never know with these cars . Mine hasn’t given me any problems yet but at 85k now I think the trans is slipping .
@@twitchClipUploads sounds right. I have trust issues with luxury cars so I always avoided them. Thanks for turning me off from audi's lol. I'll go look at the Hondas. Optimas are decent as long as they pass the engine recall right?
Just got one of these the only thing I dislike is there’s no Bluetooth Audio that’s really about it I’m using a radio converter for Bluetooth and it’s a bit staticky when the volume is up
You sure about that? I'm pretty certain my 2009 A4 had bluetooth connectivity for audio but it was a prestige so maybe that was an added feature. Hard wired connection will solve your static but not as convenient for sure.
Mike C Yea there’s an old iPhone cable in the car I just need an adapter from the old to new or just put a Bluetooth adapter on the old cord. I wish they just had an aux port
Amazon has the little blue tooth thingy 😂😂 u just hook it to your aux and it automatically connects when u are in the car it stays charged for a while also. Here's the link www.amazon.com/dp/B07ML5GP72/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_pYwoFb2CQAH3V
Mine has bluetooth phone connection which works perfectly but It doesn't have the option to play music, It was a extra option I believe. So annoying as the hardware must there.
your opening statement is wrong bro, the refresh came in late 2011 so 2011 cars can have old headlights like the ones on your car or the newer headlights and engine etc.
