| Pros | - The best exterior styling of all Audis
- Great multi-link suspension setup
- Arguably the best NA V8 from VAG
- 6-speed manual transmission
- No electronics gimmicks
| - Glorious 4.2 TDI and W12 engine options
- Much improved ZF 6HP transmission
- Good 0.27 drag coefficient
- Good towing capacity
- Much more modern inside
| - Interesting range of V6 engines
- Good ZF 8HP transmission
- Good 0.28 drag coefficient
- Good towing capacity
|
|---|
| Cons | - Weak automatic transmission
- Nose-heavy
- Not as easy to work on as its contemporaries, though far better than later Audis
| - Unreliable range of FSI engines
- Adoption of CVT for FWD
| - No manual transmission offered
- CVT for FWD models to be avoided
- Less interior space than the A6
