Selling my Used  2002 Audi S6 Avant 4.2L
This car is Extremely well maintained.
I am selling this car primarily because I purchased an A3 TDI for better gas mileage.  This car is  wicked fast and handles like a 2 door coupe sports car.  The S6 truly is the perfect car for someone who wants space and sport.  The car has had over $5000 in maintenance, repairs and upgrades in the past two years.  If I had to rate the car I would say the exterior is a 7.5/interior a 9
Here are some of the repairs:
*New transmission 200 miles ago.
*New front brakes and rotors
*Valve cover gaskets were replaced last fall
*All oil sensors were replaced and new gaskets were installed.
*Exhaust manifold gaskets were replaced.
*Power steering was flushed and new washers and gaskets were installed (almost a rebuild)
*19" gunmetal grey wheels were installed and brand new performance tires were mounted this spring.
*CV Boots were done
*Coolant flush done last fall
*Timing belt and water pump were done at around 87,000 miles

I know I am missing something but those are the main ones.  I have the receipts for every repair done. 
Here is the story of what this car is:
The Audi S6 boasts a very strong 4.2-liter, 340-hp V8 engine, a performance-tuned version of the one that sat in the Audi A8. But not a lot of aftermarket performance parts were made for the S6 due to it being a relatively rare car. There were only about 900 sent over to the U.S. and it was only in production for 2002 and 2003, so the second generation Audi S6 is somewhat unique and rare on the road, adding to its stylish cache. Although after its initial demise in 2003, the third generation S6 has made a come back in 2007.

The second generation S6 only came as a wagon, meaning it offered the space, cargo capacity, and practicality of a family car, the confident road grip of quattro, plus the sports car-like handling of a flashier racer....its a low key rocket.  With a power-to-weight ratio of 184.57 bhp/ton, this 4000lb wagon does 0-62mph in about 6 seconds. Top speed is electronically limited 155 mph, some have said given enough road the car could reach the better side of 180mph.

It features all of the interior amenities Audi prides itself on offering, as well as sporty touches in its distinct grille, dual exhaust pipes, and brushed aluminum mirror moldings.

The negative of this car:

*small rust bubbles on rear hatch below the window (very easy fix as it is just bubbles

*exterior paint has minor scratches.  They are not bad and expected for the year of the car.

*minor paint chip on rear bumper that is only visible when close up

Editors' Picks September 2021 | Genesis GV70, Grand Cherokee L and more

Mon, Oct 11 2021

This month of Editors' Picks saw us award the honor to a few top-notch crossovers and SUVs, plus one luxury sportback. Manufacturers keep rolling out excellent new crossovers, and the Genesis GV70 and Jeep Grand Cherokee L are great examples. Plus, living the good life with our long-term Hyundai Palisade has been evidence enough that it's worthy of an editors' pick. Read on below for the full breakdown and see what made the cut for September. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in August that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2022 Genesis GV70 2022 Genesis GV70 at Mt St Helens View 37 Photos Quick take: Genesis' first shot at a compact luxury crossover is a strong one that moves the segment forward and makes for an excellent alternative to one of the many other established options. Score: 8 What it competes with: BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class, Audi Q5, Lexus NX, Acura RDX, Volvo XC60, Lincoln Corsair, Infiniti QX50, Porsche Macan Pros: Gorgeous looks inside and out, forward-looking tech, good ride and handling balance Cons: Nothing budget about it, no true performance option From the editors Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore — "Blending style and power, the GV70 shows Genesis is serious about delivering a strong execution in a critical segment. Props to Genesis for its risk-taking design, which has remade its lineup with confidence. The GV70 is just the latest in a series of wins for Genesis." In-depth analysis: 2022 Genesis GV70 First Drive Review | The real deal   2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L View 35 Photos Quick take: The 2022 Grand Cherokee L is inarguably immense, swank, and much better on-road than the previous SUV. It even keeps up the Jeep tradition of being great off-road while still carrying tons of passengers and gear.

China probing German automakers over spare parts

Sat, 26 Jul 2014

The Chinese market has proven to be a boon to German luxury automakers. However, the way that the companies have allegedly been controlling their supply of spare parts has begun to draw the ire of the nation's government. According to insiders speaking to Bloomberg, officials from the country's economic planning organization have opened a probe into Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and some Japanese carmakers over claimed price inflation and limiting supply.
Specifically, the investigation centers around two aspects of how the companies do business, according to Bloomberg. Investigators want to know whether the original equipment component makers are able to sell spare parts only to automaker-authorized dealers or if they are also available to independent shops. There is also the issue of whether the price markup on replacement pieces is too high. The tight controls could be partially explained by China's reputation for producing counterfeit parts.
Evidently, the investigators haven't checked parts prices at car dealers elsewhere in the world. At least in the US, paying more at the dealer for factory components just goes along with owning a vehicle. If evidence of price fixing is found, the companies could face fines the equivalent of millions of dollars, according to Bloomberg.

Audi follows suit with TDI stop-sale

Wed, Nov 4 2015

Yesterday, Porsche issued a stop-sale on its Cayenne Diesel, following the news that the Volkswagen Group's 3.0-liter diesel V6 is also fitted with cheating software. Now, according to Automotive News, Audi is issuing a similar stop-sale in the US, but in the case of that brand, it affects more than just one model. Audi's stop-sale covers diesel-powered versions of the 2013-2015 Q7, as well as the 2014-2016 A6, A7, A8, and Q5. All of these models can be had with the 3.0-liter TDI V6, which up until this week's news, was not included in Volkswagen's massive diesel scandal. No recall is currently planned, according to Automotive News. Additionally, Volkswagen has yet to issue a stop-sale on its Touareg TDI, which also uses the 3.0-liter V6. The Touareg TDI can still be found on Volkswagen's consumer site, as of this writing.
