Build quality was rock solid, never one rattle inside. Would have stepped up to A5 AWD with 450HP V8 but 25,000 more and I got tired of the high price of mandatory schedule maintenance. Awesome line of cars, better than BMW and Mercedes IMO, but expensive to own.
Same thing here, had an 06 A3 with 100K on it, loved the hell out of that car, but every time I brought it in, it was a grand.

Had just dropped 3 grand into it to get some maintenance done and turn off the CEL, on my way back from an Audi meet, it started sputtering on the interstate, limped it home called my mechanic and was told it could be 200 or 2000, and we had to work our way up to fix it.

Needless to say I used that cash for a down payment on my Camaro. Love the Audi's, very expensive to own.

I was the proud owner of a 2003 Toyota Camry with 230k miles on it when I traded it in. Could have ran longer I'm sure but I couldn't chance it blowing up and me not having anything to trade in. It was a 4 cyl so I was getting decent miles per tank too

I had a 2008 Infiniti G35 sedan, great car, I enjoyed it a lot. I went into withdrawal when I traded it for my Camaro, but I soon got over it. After having the Camaro for over a year I wouldn't go back.

Had an Evo X. Great car. I went in the wrong direction with the mods, though. Was quicker but more difficult to drive at it's limit at the track.

Modded 1998 Grand Prix GTP (in my sig)

Had that thing running 13s. It was fun but it was time to move on.

Luckily, my mom was in the market for a car so I sold it to her so I can still visit it from time to time
