No, not necessarily. I'm really just trying to make sure the car wont constantly be in the shop. I have friends who used to work for Audi and had 2009 A4's, and their cars were always breaking down. That's my only concern. Just trying not to get a lemon, is all.
Like I said in the OP, I'm coming from a VW, which is basically the same thing as Audi (GTI's are basically the same as A3's, in fact), and I had absolutely no problems with it. I did all the maintenance myself, only taking it to the dealer for the major services.

Our cars are well-cared for. We use approved fluids, etc. We don't have problems with the cars. We also have had multiple VWs and that familiarity will help you maintain your new car and have an enjoyable ownership experience.
WTS, don't get one of these cars without the CPO coverage

DD, we acquired our third Audi a couple weeks ago. I am very critical of problem cars. I can tell you with great certainty that I would not be building a fleet of Audis if I perceived them as being anything close to "problematic". It simply would not be happening. I don't know if we've been lucky with European cars, in general, but over the past 30 years or so, we've never had a major failure. I suppose the AC failing is the most serious thing we've encountered.
