What's the base price on it? I would imagine that it would be a good seller, if the base price was around $19k-$21K.

I'm guessing $24k - $25k (based on the price in Europe).

I'm not a big fan of the long grill, but still a damn fine car.

I think its supposed to be close to 30k+ for one with quattro and the top of the line engine.

but is reliability going to better on this car? I've heard stories about VW/Audi. I need to drive 50 miles each way to and from work, so reliability is a big concern.

Quick Update


Base Price $25,460 Including $700 destination. Not a bad price IMO, but I think the GTI, which is essentially the same car could by 4-5k cheaper.

so thats what i saw today. at a traffic light today, i was sitting behind one of those trucks that carry cars. the last car was an audi wagon. since the model name was taped over, i couldnt see what it was. thought it was the new a6 wagon or something. but the car looks good!!
