Just sold my A4 on Autotrader. It was pretty painless. I figured I'd post my experience here since the subject of how to sell a used Audi comes up from time to time. I ultimately had to lower my price a bit, but I ended up getting $10.5k for it and it only took about a week and 2 people looking at it. So now I'm down to my A6 and my wife's new (ducking) Saturn VUE. I wanted a Cayenne, but she didn't like the way it looked...sigh.

Cheers,

Default A comment...

Nice going, $10.5 seems like a fairly decent price. I keep thinking our 00 30v is not worth a dime, until I see some pricing throughout the web. If you get a Cayenne, you might consider staying away from the early models(if you buy used), as they had a few issues.

Default I hope we do that well with ours when it goes....

Just don't know what the replacement would be:
-New A4 3.2 Avant
-Subaru Legacy GT wagon or Outback
-3 Series BMW Touring
Already have an SUV(old 4runner).

The young fellow that bought it seemed mostly interested in the stereo. :-)

Default You went from a Cayenne to a Vue???

Maybe she'll want to trade after she reads all of the reports on the Vue's excessive propensity to roll over. Search the web - it's out there.
