Default Will be looking at 07 S6 Today. What should I pay attention to?

It seems like a good deal at $51K, loaded with 10K miles, but it is being sold by Nissan here. They said they got the car from the Auction. Does not make sense why they would have this vehicle... Will do a carfax.

I am definetely thinking that if I like it, I will have Audi perform a very thorough check on it before I finally purchase it. As far as today goes, what red flags should I be looking for while examining and driving the car? Thanks.

Nothing special to check just perform whatever you would do for A6

Default Check brakes.....

Check brakes and ask for new pads if less pad thickness left.

Default Nice solid car... just make sure it has not been in an accident, etc.

Probably have to do an MMI update and if you use an iPod an integration package. Also check that you have the latest Navigation DVD.

Default Carfax checks out one owner, no accidents.

Will still have Audi inspect it for damage though.

Default That car would have gone for about $42k at auction...

A 2007 S6 with 17k went for $41k back in November

Default Yes, check brakes...

Have an '07 S6; love it.

Did need pads and rotors at 13k miles (of course, not covered.)
