Default Looking to buy S7

I used to have an Audi A6 that I loved but gave me crazy problems. Been driving a 2015 Jeep Srt8 for about 4 years and want to get another Audi. Still keeping my Jeep but found an S7 I like but I am not sure if it’s a good deal.

It’s a 2013 white on black prestige. Has 79k miles and looks pretty well kept with Audi service and records. I can get it for 24.5k which I wonder is a good price. I need something under 30k since I am keeping my Jeep. Thoughts if this is a good deal or should I go for an A7 and do mods to get a newer model? I appreciate the feedback in advance!

Read up on the turbo problems. A 13 with 79K will likely need new turbo's soon unless the oil screen problem has already been fixed. Could be a $10K repair waiting to happen.

I have a 2014...I replaced the oil separator only... I change my oil every 2500.00 miles because its direct injected which darken and contaminates the oil quickly. The engine is very solid...and DSG needs servicing at 75k miles... I have several upgrades on mine, stage 2 APR,Eucode front and rear sway bars,Eucode transmission and rear diff bushing upgrades. Has intake,APR down pipes,APR wheel spacers ,AWE track exhaust..Stage 2 software upgrade......

Congratulations! Thats a show stopper.......I own a European shop..and I see many things that come through the door....Nothing and I mean NOTHING has the uniqueness and stand alone dynamics as Audi. You can really see that they try to think outside the box and not really follow there competition. Yes they compete but not follow...Also I have owned M cars, and AMG ,and I have never got stopped and asked questions as much in 1 month of ownership of my Audi,as I did during the years of ownership of the others models put together!

Is that the same car you were asking about in your OP? Based on the pictures, that does not look like a 2013...

Killer option list and add-on's nonetheless, and for $24.5k.... seems like a really good deal

No I went with a 2016 which is in the pics above and definitely wasn’t 24k LOL
