2015 Audi A3

We tend to think of Audi as being a fairly contemporary nameplate, but its roots in the automotive world date back 140 years. During that time its commitment to equipping its cars with tasteful aesthetic appeal and cutting-edge technology has made Audi one of the best-selling luxury brands in the world. Running strong and chock full of understated style, this 2015 Audio A3 Quattro is a fine and surefooted representative of its manufacturer's work.

Wearing Florette Silver paint, this is a car that strikes a nice visual balance - it's undeniably sporty yet by no means ostentatious. The A3 received a major makeover the year that this 2015 rolled off the line, and it shows - this is a vital looking ride. Up front, the sizable grille, positioned between two sloping headlights, creates an aggressive appearance, but without unnecessary additional ornamentation to detract from this Audi's understated style. Well contoured, this car is large enough to accommodate rear passengers without complaints and yet it's also compact enough to make for nimble handling - like a more compact version of its manufacturer's A6 model. It has a sharply angled windshield and relatively low stance to give it an athletic, road-ready air and the contrasting black accents around its cabin windows and on its substantially sized sunroof really complement its overall look.

Inside the doors, the black vinyl interior is in clean shape. You might find some slight signs of wear on the high contact touch points, but nothing you'd be at all concerned about, and both the front buckets and rear bench seats are free of any tears or stains. Being a relatively modern car, you'd expect this A3 to offer its fair share of comfort and convenience features and they're all here - in addition to heated power seats, cruise control, power door locks, windows and mirrors and a steering column that both tilts and telescopes to get the wheel in perfect position, you'll also find an anti-theft device and backup camera on board. The air conditioning blows cold and strong and there are front and side airbags for the driver and passengers in the event of a collision. The factory AM/FM/CD stereo is in good working order and offers both an auxiliary port and Bluetooth connectivity, so audio options won't be an issue.

Powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that's mated to a 6-speed dual clutch transmission, this Audi offers a really nice driving experience. The engine pulls enthusiastically, and the featured dual clutch transmission makes for unusually smooth shifting through the gears. Cruise down the highway with the windows down all you like - you won't hear any concerning noises coming from this powerplant, nor any rattles from the suspension for that matter. And with Quattro's all-wheel drive, you'll enjoy a level a level of traction on the road that's very hard to come by, especially should you find yourself in unforgiving weather. When it comes time to bring things to a stop, you'll find anti-lock power disc brakes at all four corners to get the job done quickly and dependably.

With its appealing combination of rock-solid running condition and Teutonic flair, this 2015 Audio A3 Quattro would be a great fit for someone who prizes a compelling driving experience that's packaged in a tastefully stylish exterior. Call today!
