Went to see the A6 wagon today. It's a "no go." As soon as I sat in the driver's seat, I knew it had been a smoker's car. Gunked up lighter confirmed what my nose already knew. Found an old Carfax in with the owner's manual showing that the car had been in two accidents. Not sure how bad they were. I could tell there had been some paint work in its past, but no other obvious signs of accident repair. Strike three... a/c was not putting out enough air. Don't know if the cabin filter was clogged or if something was broken, but a/c was definitely not up to Phoenix standards.
The cabin was definitely a nice place to be. Seats were awesome. Infotainment system was more intuitive than what I expected based on some reading. There were a few buttons on the dash that I would have had to look up in the manual to figure out their purpose in life. One I figured out by pressing... an electric glove box opener button??? Really? Seems like an unnecessary use of electronics, if there ever was one!
Would like to have driven it, but it had a low tire and was pretty much on fumes. Just didn't feel like messing with it in the afternoon heat.
