The Old-Fashioned Way
1. You can't leave. You're pressured to buy the car today, without the chance to comparison shop.
2. Endless negotiation. You're stuck for hours going head-to-head with a salesman.
3. You're overwhelmed by numbers. APRs, fees, payment schedules—you have to sign right away and there's no time to think.
Our Dealer Network
We generate millions of dollars in sales each month for the dealers. By using our website as the middleman, you can save hundreds of dollars on your purchase. Why do dealers work with us then? Because of the 50,000 cars sold each day, fewer than 500 are sold through our network. That’s a drop in the bucket for the car dealers, but a bottom line price quote for you.
In addition, we'll show you any available manufacturer Rebates & Incentives for your new car.
The Back Door to Savings
A dealership’s Internet department prices its vehicles to maximize the number of cars it sells, not the profit per car. Manufacturers decide the allocation of vehicles and dealer perks on the basis of a dealership's volume.
Coming in through the "back door" levels the playing field for your negotiation and tells the dealer that you have done your research, that you know about rebates, hold-backs, multiple price quotes and all the tricks of the trade.
When you deal with our contacts in the Internet department, you get a firm price quote, and oftentimes the paper work is already prepared when you walk into the dealership.
Depending on your location, sometimes the dealer will bring the car to you at your home or office for a test drive, walk-around, and ultimately delivery.
We keep referring customers to friendly Internet Sales Managers, and they keep selling cars at incredibly low prices.
The WhyPaySticker.com Way
1. Start from the comfort of home. It's so easy with free, no-obligation Internet price quotes from Accredited Dealers.
2. Make dealers compete. You know you'll get the best price with competitive bids from multiple dealers.
3. Finalize the numbers on your terms. Finish your negotiations on your time, then go to the dealership to pick up your new car.
New 2012 Audi A6 Overview
Vehicle Overview
Scheduled to hit the U.S. market in late summer or early fall of 2011, the 2012 Audi A6 is a complete redesign, the seventh generation of Audi's midsize car. Though it's also sold overseas as an Avant wagon, Audi will be importing only the sedan. A new hybrid and a performance-oriented S6 model are being considered for U.S. sale but haven't been committed. The A6's competitors include the BMW 5 Series, Cadillac CTS, Jaguar XF and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, among others.
Exterior
The A6's styling has evolved, but it isn't dramatically different from the previous version, as it still bears a deeply plunging grille. The complex headlight clusters are more squat than before, and LED headlights are optional. LED running lights, previously separated from the clusters, are now integrated.
Likewise, the car's dimensions are similar: The wheelbase is close to 3 inches longer, and the car is a mere half-inch wider.
Increased use of aluminum has shaved more than 60 pounds off the car — impressive, because redesigns typically add weight rather than remove it.
Interior
Except for the trunk, which has grown to about 18 cubic feet, the interior volume is comparable to that of the previous generation. Standard leather seats are an advantage over some competitors, most notably BMW and Mercedes-Benz, which include vinyl seats in their base models.
The A6 adopts the latest version of Audi's Multi Media Interface multifunction controller, including MMI touch, which recognizes letters drawn on a touchpad. An associated LCD screen motors out of the center control panel to rest just above dashboard level but not high enough to block the driver's view. Options include Bose and Bang & Olufsen premium stereos and a head-up display that projects information on the windshield. Optional night vision is incorporated into this display. Google Earth navigation and Audi Connect telematics are additional options.
Under the Hood
Although Audi has two gasoline and three diesel engines for the A6 in Europe, the U.S. will start only with a 310-horsepower, supercharged gas V-6. The eight-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission teams with Quattro all-wheel drive.
Audi cites a zero-to-60 mph time of less than 5.5 seconds. The efficiency has improved, but mpg ratings aren't finalized as of this writing.
Safety
The A6 comes with two front, two front-seat-mounted side-impact and two side curtain airbags. As required of all 2012 models sold in the U.S., it has standard antilock brakes and an electronic stability system, which Audi has included for years.
Active safety features include a blind spot monitoring system and a collision avoidance system called "pre sense," which optionally uses radar and other sensors to detect a pending collision and intervene by warning the driver and then braking automatically. The Active Lane Assist feature, which nudges the car back into its lane if it strays, will be introduced but isn't available as of the A6's U.S. launch.
