Audi Maintenance Costs are out of line
#71
I imagine that the incomes that they cite are for those who make loans or maybe lease their Audis. I always pay cash and no one has ever asked me what my earnings are. Also, I wonder if it's individual or family income, I expect the latter since the numbers are high.

Those surveys are done after you buy your car. Many people don't fill them out, you are right, but it is the same for all the brands. All things being equal, everyone on this forum knows that Audi is the superior auto maker. Period

Audi Care is $850 like I said earlier in this thread. **PEANUTS** Audi Care is the same blanket coverage at ANY AUDI DEALER PERIOD. BMW's Free Maintenance program is not "FREE" you are paying for it in the price! Audi is trying to be the number 1 auto maker and their Customer Service is EXCELLENT in my opinion! Audi is costlier than BMW and some of the others. Audi has the highest Median Income among Luxury Brands Period. Audi isn't cheap and you have to pay to play. I am glad because there isn't 5 bazillion Audi's running around like BMWs!!!! Oh...and people that buy Audi's seem to be the best educated!

Perhaps I am missing your sarcasm, but there is no Audi dealer anywhere that is charging a labor rate 9000 times higher than a Ford dealer. Or even nine times. Or (in my experience) even twice as much.
