Gotcha. This comment had confused me...
... but now I see that Saintor was correcting someone else's comment mentioning a 3.2 option and not referring to the OP's purchase.
So how does the 2.0T feel? It sounds underpowered to me (on paper), but I haven't driven one. Isn't the A6 a fairly heavy car? Also, how is it that Audi's 2.0T only puts out 220hp?

My coworker has the same A6, I've driven it plenty of times for lunch outings. It certainly does NOT feel underpowered for daily driving. I think you are underestimating the fat torque band of Audi 2.0 TFSI engine.

nice, I like that you can get this car with 2.0T, why waste gas with a huge engine if you don't have to and still have the comfort and luxury of an A6 over A4. This huge HP race in daily driven cars is only set up for North America, people in Europe and everywhere else in the world don't really care

Because Audi knows a lot of the potential buyers for this car don't care about how much power the car has.

is the X5 leased? if it is, tell her to park outside.... far away from your house and your car.
i dont think it will happen but doesnt hurt to ask. and you might end up parking and sleeping outside.
