2009 4dr SUV 187-horsepower 2.7L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 We were able to get a new Highlander for much less money than a Honda Pilot and still get all the features we desired (larger than a Rav4/CRV, >20 MPG city, leather, and full compliment of air bags/antilock/traction control)
2007 4dr SUV 155-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 I got it for a good price making it an easy decsision to purchase
Price of the Toyota Highlander: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Felt some options missing for $38K vehicle such as memory settings, more detailed tire monitoring
2009 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 VW was offering a sizeable discount on the Routan, a similar Highlander was from 8 to 10K more
2009 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 you pay for the reputation.
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 More expensive then Pathfinder for same year and higher milage vehicles.
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Because you had to purchase features you did not want, the vehicle was much more pricey than others with the same features. They charged a premium for basic features included with other makes of cars.
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Over priced because was new model at time I was looking. Configured with unwanted trim and features vs competition.
2006 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid
CVT AWD		 I paid full MSRP.

Price of the Audi A6 / S6: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan supercharged 300hp 3.0L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Pricey, especially with options, but no more so than its direct competition. Still cheaper than an equivalent M-B or BMW.
2008 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Not a lot of 26 year olds in my town are driving the car i have so i get looks allll the time. but anyway, Depending how much money you have to put down and make, will determine if u have a 500 $ payment since i was 11k upside down on my trade in.
2006 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Price is high...but all cars in this class have a high price. You get what you pay for. :)
2006 4dr Wagon 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Over $10k more than V70
2005 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Full price - no discounts or concessions
2004 4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 2.7L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 it is a pricey car in an absolute sense but a good value vs. bmw 540
2003 4dr Sedan 300-horsepower 4.2L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 The car is was very expensive, and hence payments high.
2002 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.7L V6
6-speed manual AWD		 It can be quite expensive, though a used A6 over 5 years old will drop in price dramatically and become an excellent deal.
