The best car to transform driving into an experience like nothing else
I love my Audi A4 more than any other car I have ever owned or driven. The engine is incredible and trustworthy, and the acceleration makes driving an enjoyable experience. The convertible feature makes this car the best vehicle to drive in the summer! Additionally the stereo system makes every song come alive, and I love the Bluetooth feature. I have not had any serious problems with this car which is extremely refreshing and comforting. I will never opt for a different make of car, ever.

I think my vehicle is a sporty car that is fast, while drives well.
I do not have any problems with my car except the breaks tend to squeak in cold weather. I have gone to the dealership and they assure me that it is not the breaks being worn, but just the breaks themselves. That is my least favorite thing about my car. I love how reliable my car is and comfortable the ride is though.

Great and reliable Audi a4.
The Audi a4 is a wonderful car. It has many features for comfort and performance. I enjoy the way the car drives and its features. The car gets good gas mileage averaging 24 mpg. Leather seats, heated front seats, sport suspension, on demand manual transmission.

The Audi a4 uses very high quality materials on the interior and exterior.
The Audi a4 is a very comfortable car to drive that is a great value for the price. It uses very high quality materials compared to other cars of similar prices. There are many options that come standard on the Audi a4 that a lot of other cars do not come with. The stock stereo system is also very good.

This is by far my most favorite car I have ever owned.
My car is by far my most favorite car I have ever had in my life. I just wanted to let you guys know that I love this car with all of my heart and soul. It is reliable to work in and fast. It is comfortable and smooth to drive. It is by far an awesome car and I hope I get to keep it forever as long as it does not have issues with the engine or other mechanical/ electrical issues. I am going to celebrate my ownership of my car every year going forward until the day that I die or get rid of the car to upgrade to another Audi. I am in love with German engineering.

It is a very nice smooth car.
It is a very well working car. It drives smooth. I think sometimes there is a bit of difficulty looking backwards. So the visibility for the driver would be something I would improve. It has beautiful leather seats and a great sound system.

Not so great. Toyota is better than Audi.
Just is not great for the kids I watch. Hard to clean and it costs a lot. Hard to fix as well. Audi is a cool car company but I think I’d be better off with a different one. I was given this car so I didn't have a choice but if I could’ve I would have chose different.

Audi advantage It's a nice driving experience
I don't like the speakers. There's no Bluetooth so I can't listen to my music. The sound system isn't good. There are oil problems and also recalls. The oil change costs $100. The pickup is not as good as my old bmw. Other than that, it's a pretty good car.

That it is durable and it is not going to break down.
I like the exterior and interior aesthetic, but I dislike how sometimes it will not turn on. That is the only problem, it is an amazing car otherwise.
accountCircle Jackie H
I would recommend this car as it is sleek and reliable.
It is an automatic but does have paddle shifters, can access both drive and sport mode easily, back up camera and navigation, amazing sound quality with music. Quit when driving, slow hp, does consume a good amount of gas.
accountCircle Megan L
Great car that can also double as a family car.
My car has great seats. They are really comfortable. The plush seat interior with the leather makes it that much more special. My family loves the car, and they can really relax in the back seat. With that being said, I am excited out possibly buying a new version. Also getting more tires that have more grip for the harsh travels.

It is a very beautiful car and the interior is breathtaking.
The car is great and drives really well and smoothly and the gas mileage is great. The inside is beautiful and very comfortable. The car goes quite fast and I haven't experienced any problems with it so far, the exterior is also very nice and everyone who has been inside it has only good things to say, I would highly recommend it.

Audi a4: a dynamic vehicle.
This luxury compact sedan is absolutely great. The premium trim comes very well equipped and you can feel the quality in the details. It offers a quiet and smooth ride. Long distance road trips are actually a pleasant experience driving the a4. The handling is balanced, and there's plenty of grip through bends. What drew me most to this car was the interior (because that is a huge factor for me, aside from driving experience) and it has not disappointed. It is comfortable and filled with great features. The drive has been fantastic. The car is fuel efficient! I am averaging 25-28 with city driving and 27-30 with city/highway. It does require premium gas but that is a small price to pay for a fuel efficient luxury sedan. Best of all, it really is an eye-catcher. The interior is flawless but the exterior is also lovely no matter what angle you look at it from.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Thomas S.

The car packs a punch with the turbo, it has a decent sized trunk, lots of safety features and, has decent interior space compared prior A4 models. This is the first luxury vehicle I have owner and it is very enjoyable a comfortable to drive.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Thomas S.

The car requires premium fuel which can get pricey. The care is pretty expensive to maintain if you stick to manufacturers recommendations. No roof rails on the car so a rack up top can get pricey. No Apple carplay and the entertainment center takes some getting used to.

Is The 2016 Audi A4 A Good Value?

Its a price people with full time jobs could afford and its good value for its price and the other models are great too.
Desiree C.
The car was a great buy based on mileage $11,500. The best value especially for a luxurious car. Cannot get no better than that the mileage was 5,000 to be exact.
Trianna P.
$45,000+...not worth the price, should be priced closer to $30,000 for this size, interior leg room, and power
Abby M.
It cost us about $30 thousand a year and a half ago. As to was it a good value I have no idea. I just liked the car, it was used and had very low miles on the car.
