- Superb suspension setup
| - 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
| - Torquey and powerful V8TT engine
- Fast 7-speed DCT
- Supposedly better fuel economy
- Good towing capacity
- Multi-link suspensions all-around
|
|---|
| Cons | - Horrendous ABC reliability in higher-end models
- 4MATIC started to appear
| - Weak automatic transmission
- Nose-heavy
- Not as easy to work on as its contemporaries, though far better than later Audis
| - Lots of complexity yet little room for any work in the engine bay
- Still nose-heavy
