2006 Audi A3 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Have had this car for three months and have put on 13,000 miles. I like the car more every time I drive it. Drove through an awful rain storm in Louisiana and Alabama and it handled like a dream. The DSG transmission is an absolute wonder of functionality. The sound system is wonderful, and the seat are comfortable and firm.
I am 6'4" and have plenty of room once I get inside, whoever, I wish the door jams were about an inch or two taller.
I have been getting between 26 -30 miles to a gallon on the highway with some city driving.
My only complaint is that the sport seats should be power operated.
