2000 Audi A6 2.7T review from North America
"Great buy, excellent performance and luxury"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There really isn't much to complain about, however, when I turn the steering to either extreme, I experience some stiffness.
Also, the car came with 16"rims and these are quite capable, but I had 19"rims put on and the profile and handling is much better.
P.S. The 19"s aren't responsible for the stiffness there is ample clearance and I had that issue with the 16"s.
General comments?
This car is very much on par with the BMW's, but at half the cost when purchased used.
The car also has serious potential for power upgrades; from 250hp/258ftlbs stock all the way to 415Hp/400ftlbs. Torque values go up considerably and with twin-turbos it would be SWEET.
Where in the NY/NJ area can I find an auto shop that does this chip upgrade.
