Very nice pick up!
I swear, these Audi's are looking better and better to me...
Great trim, great color-combo.
Congrats!

Oh man that is some brutal depreciation lol. Good for folks like you buying one second hand though.

Just out of curiosity, I ran the numbers on what a 2013 Honda Accord Touring V6(you said your Audi was loaded) with the same miles was worth. $23,250 clean retail according to NADA. I'm guessing that Accord was about 30-31k out the door in 2013. So the Accord lost 25% of its value while the Audi lost almost 60% of its value. Its amazing how the cheaper, more utilitarian a car is, the better it holds its value.

Anyways, congrats on your new Audi, it looks mint. They've been beating BMW and Benz over the head in terms of styling, fit/finish, infotainment/tech features and just that overall feeling of luxury/quality on the interior for the past several years IMO.

maybe today, and maybe i'm missing something, but i don't believe it was that high in 2013. i just looked on cars.com it shows a 2013 a6 3.0T quattro for 50k, prestige is $6550 and 20" rims pkg for $2300 for a total of about $59k.

Yeah, the one in this Motor Trend comparison from 13 was $57,460, pretty well equipped.

I almost bought an A6 new in 2012 (2013 model), they can definately be $70k. Car I was going to buy was a Prestige with a $66k sticker, and there were options beyond that, wheels, trim, packages that car didn't have, easily can hit $70k.

right but with so many options, there's no saying a $70k then new 2013 is the same config as what OP bought for $30k now.

This is in the general ballpark of A6's around me. The OP's location is Vancouver maybe that's the difference in pricing.

You are correct, this iA6 has the highest trim level available with every possible add on option there is.
