Default 2013 A7: a good buy?

Hi everyone, I am currently looking at upgrading from my 00' A6 to a 2013 A7 and I am wondering from current owners how their A7 is doing these days? I'm looking at the 3.0T prestige.. I'm just wondering what some of the common problems people have been having with theirs.. so if there are any 13' owners out there who could help me out, that would be great, thanks!

I'm not having any mechanical problems with my 2012 A7. The most recent "problem" I have seen with the early C7's is the cell phone/sim card connectivity.

Take the VIN to a Audi service department and they can tell you the service history. Check with Edmunds.com for the recent value in your area.

There was a recall for a fuel rail leakage problem, make sure it has been done.

Drew, I purchased a 14 Glacier White prestige six months ago love the car. However, it has been in the shop for a month now for a new transmission. Thank God, it was still under warranty (barely). Only a few complaints such as the comfort of the seats and with a loaner from Audi the B&O system is much better then the Bose. Other then that I can't wait to get my car back and start having fun again. I have the 20" rims and the ride is just fine. Good luck with your purchase!

Hi Drew, just recently bought a 2014 A7 and I'm loving it. I did a ton of research before deciding that was the car I was going to buy. You are already an Audi fan it looks like so I don't think you'd be disappointed with an A7.
