2007 Audi A3 review

By (cnet.com)

With a very efficient engine and technologically advanced transmission, the 2007 Audi A3 is a great driver's car. Its interior is well-appointed, and we like its Bluetooth cell phone integration. The premium Bose stereo sounds very good

Audi's cabin electronics have quickly become dated, with no MP3 CD compatibility and an SD card reader that makes selecting music difficult. The navigation interface makes choosing destinations tedious

The Escort GT2 performance computer is ready to time our runs.

Solid performance marks this early-adopter car, but the Audi A3 gets pricey when all options are in.

Built on the same new-generation transverse-engine platform as the latest...

Great handling with S-line package. Good power with potential for over 300HP with Modifications. I still get 28 MPG with EVO and STI power. 6 sp manual has been flawless. Bluetooth and stereo are great

"Avoid this car"

By jopsomer (cnet.com)

Drives well when it's working

The reliability on this car is abysmal. The problem areas have been the fuel injection system and electronic components. In the last 6 months, I've been to the dealer 7 times. If you enjoy your dealership waiting room, this is the car for you
