Default New to me A3

Bought my first Audi the other day. It's a 2006 w/ 53k miles. Already it's been in the shop for problems and w/ $1,700.00 in repairs so far it's still not good to go. Even with the extra expense I still think I got a pretty good deal. Only time will tell.

The car came from California via Texas so if anybody knows anything about it. I'd love to hear it.

quattro? 3.2? how much? maybe should have bought certified.

it irks me to no end when people buy from non-reputable sources to save a little money then complain that the car is junk. there's a lot of slime ball dealers out there, and the customer really should do due diligence before purchasing. sometimes it's worth it to pay a little extra to buy from a recognized audi dealer.

but i hope you get your issues sorted. the a3 is really a fun and cool car. hope you get to enjoy it.

it's a 2.0 FWD. I'd rather not say what I paid for it. Even if I have to put another 5 grand into it I would still consider it a good deal. I bought it from a wholesaler so I expected a few problems...
