Many versions
of the new 2009 Audi A6 models contribute to the wide
range of prices. This is due to the power and luxury add-on's
available for each model. One engine available is the 3.0, an
aluminum-crafted 220 hp V6 or the 2.7 T twin turbochargers, dual
intercoolers, and an available six-speed manual is available.
For those who want the authority of a 300 hp V8, the 4.2 offers
up power, speed and a lot of torque. And for those who demand
the ultimate in performance and luxury the 2009 or the 2009 Audi
S6 Avant delivers a truly luxurious experience.

Since the
base model of the A6 lineup prices is so diverse, I recommend
checking making sure you only purchase the options you need, The
models I tested ranged 15k between the two, while the distinction
of power and comfort was minimal in city and highway driving.
