If you have a warranty, you're good. But let that warranty run out and the repairs can add up pretty fast. As much as I love Audi/VW, maintenance is a pain. Not to mention there tends to be CRAZY electrical problems, which I'm currently experiencing now. I attempted to diagnosis it, but when there are 20+ wires coming from one tail light, it's a wrap for my non-fix-it self.
As a general rule of thumb, if you buy a German whip, be able to have $1k or more in the bank at all times for repairs/maintenance.
Exponential deprecation also drives a lot of people to lease European cars or at least buy them after someone else has broken them in.Originally Posted by Mangudai954

Which is exactly why I'd only lease one. Beautiful cars though.

The thing is, OEM and aftermarket parts for European cars are pretty expensive... coupled with the fact that unless your really handy with a wrench and know your way around car, you would most likely have to take it to either a dealer or a specialist to make sure its maintained correctly will def add up.
I've also heard most euro cars get really complicated when it comes to electrical wiring as well.
im like ugh that sucks, im pretty handy when it comes to cars, i can do most bolt ons and oil changes and stuff, mods are always costly just because they are unnecceasry so
they would always be impractical which i dont care for, mods on whips make them diff so thats fine, im just talking about how ive heard an oil change for a *** whip is 30 bucks,
then a german is $130. i baby all my whips but still i dont want one thing to go wrong and be out of a grand you know?
but peep this something i found online
^what really made me look into a4's
but still g's have that power/looks/handeling and class that i look for
