Hi
Thiking of buying the new A6 - test drove bmw 535 and merc e350 and a7. Going to drive the a6 today. I liked the a7 drive - heard a6 drives exactly the same.

535 X drive is very good too - particularly the connection you feel between the wheel and the road.

So it will be between the a6 and 535

In terms of pricing, i could get about 6% off MSRP with the BMW. Is it similar with audi? What sort of a deal should i be looking for.

I'm looking at the premium plus with led lights and bose system

Also how do you guys compare the a6 to the 5 series?

Depends where you are. For example, in edmonton, AB there is only one Audi dealer, therefore you pay the MSRP for any new car since there is no competition.

US Prices are better and it is fairly simple to bring it in
I bought an A6 4.2 2008 from a dealer in Danbury ( East Coast) and still with factory warranty etc, with just under 5000 Kms in the car, and got it shipped to Seattle and then drove to the Vancouver border , paper work took me an hour and Voila, I saved about 18K from the nearest price I saw locally and having searched for about 6 months. 3 years later I am entirely satisfied with the car.

Good luck

i bought a brand new 2012 A6 premium S-line and achieved 5.1% discount from the dealer. Although it took some 4hrs of negociation to get to that discount. They make about 8% margin on the car.

VHl71 i did the same comparison as you and the Audi won hands down. Which one did you end up going for?

I also looked at the merc e350 and bmw535 xi. Much preferred the A6 and have ordered.
About 2 month delivery. Does anyone know if the Audi connect works in Canada?

Unfortunately they do not offer the Audi connect in Canada. Sucks!!
