Hey guys: Thinking about getting my brother in law a graduation present and need a little help deciding. Hoping i can get some ideas as to what year and package A7 would be best. Looking at 2010's to 2013's maybe a 14 is priced right. No real budget but 35k or less would be nice. Looking for things like what year is most reliable and was problems major issues should I be looking for. Any and all help will be much appreciated, thanks in advance.



Also: we were thinking about getting him a BMW 750li 2010 to 2013

I would look for one of the newer model years under 50,000 miles so that there would be some warranty left.

I prefer the Prestige model for the S line exterior and other upgrades but that may not be your budget.

when you say newer model, how new and what years?

As far as recommending options, it would help if you told us where the car will be driven. For different climates different options are appropriate. Also what kind of usage (city/country, highway, day/night etc.) will be dominant?

In the USA, the warranty is four years or 50,000 miles. The car would have to have been put into service March 27, 2013 or later.

If you're interested in a car, get the VIN and contact a Audi service department. They can tell you the vehicle history, any Audi Care remaining and when the car was put into service.

As I found out after I bought my 2012 A7, "Put into service" does not mean when it was sold. My car was first sold April 2012. It was put into service seven months earlier by the dealer which started the warranty clock.

In the US Model years 2012-2015 are identicial so look for one with low mileage, full service records, clean carfax and CPO'ed.

I'm in the same boat. What route did you take?

Are you getting your my brother in law an A7 too? My four sisters should have been more selective.
