Used 2019 Audi A3 for Sale in San Diego, CA

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

This is the first time I got the same car twice in a row. I loved my first Audi A3 so much that when my lease was up it wasn't even a question if I was going to get another one. My 2019 A3 is even more beautiful than my 2015 was.

On September 18, 2018 (dawn) a signal turned up on my dashboard of my Q 7 that my right front light has a problem. I immediately checked it, but was not able to find a disfunction. The light seemed to be okay to me. Nevertheless, on September 19 I drove with my wife -before I intended to got to work to UCSD- to Audi San Diego to have the problem solved without advance notice. I assumed that the bulb needed to be changed and costs less than USD 50. After some irritations (long waiting period, approximate cost estimate not mentioned in advance) the paid amount of USD 483.65 was refunded by Audi San Diego which made me very happy. Wow! I am impressed by the claim management experienced by Audi San Diego, in particular of Mrs. Ingrid Knufman. This is extra ordinary and serves as a benchmark for other companies. Thank you very much!

A dream to drive. The cockpit is one of the best-laid out, most comfortable, elegant looking, and intelligently engineered. The drive is as smooth as you expect from a high-end luxury car but handles like a sports car. Can't comment on long-term reliability yet, but can say it is beyond a pleasure to drive.

Truly No hassle browsing and buying,. Honesty, Quality, Fair Pricing that's what you get at Auto City. In additional to top quality customer service from Denise who knows so much about the best financing and JR who is happy to answer all of our questions. The lot is full of quality used car. Denis completed the paper work quickly and correctly, JR helped us test drive car after car until I made my final decision. I bought 2 cars from Auto City , a honda last year and a Toyota this month , this is the best experience I have ever had while purchasing a new or used car. When I am ready for car #3, I will buy from Auto City again.

I think this car is definitely an amazing car to drive ..It has a lot of great technology and features a lot of features most vehicles of that class size don’t even offer yet .. I think the craftsmanship and styling is on par for the price point and I wouldn’t have any hesitation to purchase one !

Just wanted to express my thanks to Brett and Don, although I am not longer the proud owner of an Audi, as I have been since 1997, Brett has always been there in a pinch. In the end Brett's recommendation of Don Bragg to help us out of a situation couldn't have been more spot on. Just as it has always been at Audi of San Diego, Don treated us with kindness and consideration. Although I certainly miss my A6, the wife is happy and I avoided a 12 thousand dollar fix in the process. I do think Audi needs to look at this manufacturing and repair situation a bit deeper, when consider the cars of the world and the average cost to fix a timing issue, 12k is insane! Regardless I will always appreciate Brett for the kind and generous help and Don for closing up a less than happy situation with professionalism and compassion. Wife's happy, I'm good:-) Thanks for everything guys!

This car met all my needs. Good leg room in the back for a small car. Excellent gas mileage and extremely comfortable with more amenities than you would expect at the price point.

The last 3 cars I've bought I bought from Randall Blaum. But the last time I bought from Randall I did something I've NEVER done before. I bought my last new car from Randall without even going in to the dealership at all. Crazy? No. Let me explain... I trust him completely. And he's more than earned it. I am not easily pleased (something you're just about to find out). His product knowledge, outstanding customer service, efficiency, speed, honesty, upbeat mood, uncanny attention to details (and the best deals, too), plus his likability, MANNERS, and charisma are all TOPS as far as I'm concerned. All this and he has great grammar, too. Who knew! But here's the really important part... I hate buying cars, I hate going to dealerships. Why? For the same reasons I hate going to most retail businesses in America these days -- because there are far too many mediocre Americans merely putting in hours just for a paycheck (that includes many of you xxxxxx corporate suits, too, who don???t know how to sell, yourselves, much less TRAIN anyone how to sell) ??? many whom have either forgotten or never knew what it???s like to be a real, live, KIND human being with a heart who can THINK and BE NICE while BEING PRODUCTIVE AND PROFITABLE (remember when America did that? No? Keep reading...) while providing an outstanding AND MEMORABLE sales experience worth repeating every time I want to buy a car (I???ve bought 20+ NEW CARS in the last 16 years, so F you. LOL!). Yes, I'm passionate about with whom I'll spend my time and money, and more people should be... if you want "this land is your land, this land is my land" to be "great" again. But I???m not holding my breath about y???all while I continue to ENJOY BUYING CARS from Randall Blaum??? and driving a new car almost every year certainly helps me feel better (since we're all about our FEELINGS these days, riiiiight?) but finally finding an amazing HUMAN BEING who happens to sell in a HUMANE way is what is truly important here. You still paying attention you smart phone addicts? Almost done??? Randall is now my ???go to??? guy for cars. Period. My time and money and how I spend them and with whom are very IMPORTANT to me. Randall knows and respects that. Do you??? I wish more AMERICANS did. Randall gets my HIGHEST recommendation. I'll be his customer for life. And I'll tell all my friends. And I'll spread it on social media and review sites on the internet machine, too. LOL! Got that management? Good. America needs YOU to be great again. Because Randall is winning at it. Good day.

I’ve owned many cars from Toyota, Honda, Hyundai etc. I just say Audi is something else, extremely powerful l, elegant, and very affordable. I would def recommend this car to everyone

Thanks for everything! Always a great experience getting my vehicle serviced here! I would definitely come back when I decide to purchase a new vehicle.

Good entry level car, but overall needs a better retaining of value from a depriciation perspective. Like the drive and speeds but needs a bit of upgrade on the engine. Interior needs to be improved too.

Great staff! 😊 🌞 💖 🌞 🙆 I didn't realize I would be writing an essay. Lol.😊 Everyone in the Dealership is awesome. They are always so friendly and cheerful....except one grumpy one...but I think he means well. Hahahahaha.😊 😂 😂 😂 😂 Kidding.😊 Thanks Everyone!

I've always wanted to test drive an Audi and they are just beautiful - from the interior with all the attention to detail to the exterior - very clean lines which stand out. And great acceleration too! Handling was very good too, no rolling either. I love German cars too but between the premium gas (not that I would have to use it all the time) and the maintenance, I decided this just wasn't the car for me.

This year we purchased an older model A3 and a new Q7! All of a sudden we are introduced to Audi and their service team. I have never been so impressed by a team since I've been a car owner! Damian has helped me with my Q7-new and didn't need any service except a new windshield and 10K service check-fast, efficient, communicative through the entire process! Brett helped us out with my daughters '09 A3-He took care of a recall while her car was in for service and we didn't even realize the recall parts had arrived!

This is my third Audi and with that have realized I am an Audi driver - I don't think I will ever own another brand!

I had my 2009 Audi TTS serviced on 9/17/2018 for the 75k manufacturer recommended service. All staff were exceptionally professional and courteous. A service consultant, Jerald Camacho, took the time to explain in detail the 75k service, and to answer numerous questions of mine, and to set me up with a lyft ride back home. While my car was undergoing service that day, another service consultant, George Gushulak, conveniently updated me via text and email about the status of the service, and estimates for additional services that I requested. Upon picking up my car, George went over in detail all the work that was performed, and answered some other general questions of mine. I left with a detailed safety/inspection report, my car fully serviced and maintained, and a thorough understanding of the overall condition of my car. The car was washed and cleaned, and everyone treated me and other customers as valued patrons. I will certainly return for future service and maintenance. John Valencia

It was everything I was looking for, color, style, speed, and at the price point I was looking for. I’m very happy with my purchase. Alice (my A3) as I call her now, is a great little car!

I had a check engine light on and scheduled an appointment. I dropped my 2015 GTI off at the over night drop and received a call in the morning. I confirmed the problem and they went to work. I was in the area that afternoon and stopped by. My car had a vacuum leak in the fuel system. They were unable to complete the repairs at the time I arrived to pick up my car, so they immediately gave me a 2016 loaner Passat. The following morning, repairs complete! I would have to say the service staff kept me well informed as well as a positive atmosphere in their department. Steve and the other service writers are always ready to jump in and help. On another note, about 3 hours after taking my car back from them, Steve gave me a call to see if everything was good with my car. I feel that this is well above the highest standard for customer service and gives the customer a peace of mind.

This is my second A3 of this model gen. Seems faster than my '16 even though both it and my new 2018 have the same specs . Probably the new tires and clean engine and fuel system. This isn't just a VW rebadged either. It's high class interior and exterior quality and design yet still let's you be a kid with ample low end power and speed. No VW less than $40k comes close to the quality build nor do you get the luxiry car service when taking your car in for service or when you just need something fixed. And this car isn't even close to $40k if you know how to buy cars with the inernet.

Very easy to purchase, the entire thing happened over email and the papers were signed via overnight FedEx. Less than 1 week later, the car was in my driveway. It does take longer than a traditional dealer, but you don't have to sit there for hours while the paperwork and financing takes place. The car came in immaculate condition, no paint chips, no scratches. Interior was perfectly detailed and cleaned. Good price, low mileage, clean history report.

Great handling and driving experience, having trouble with gas gauge and gas sensor when I got it, it's in the dealer service now

Excellent service, quick, convenient, courteous, we will definitely use VW Kearny Mesa again. We have been using their service for repairs and buying for a long time.

I really wanted an A1, the hatchback model that I rented and drove in Europe, but since they don't offer those here I opted for the A3. Excellent little car. I love the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto implementations. The turbo has a bit of a lag, but I'm not a street racer so it's not a big deal.

Came into the dealership after speaking on the phone with Anthony Pizocci about a CPO 2018 Q5 that was listed on the web. He promptly emailed me all the information and I came in the next day to look at the car. I purchased and drove off the lot the next afternoon. The transaction was seamless and everyone was very professional and efficient. Thank you very much. I just love my new car!!

Finally bought the car I have wanted for some time. Have wanted another convertible for a while now .... and now I have it. Enjoying the prestige that comes with Audi. Could not have believed the performance and file mileage that this car has.

Recently took my A3 in for a 45k service. I was immediately attended by a Service Greeter, who made sure i took all personal belongings needed before leaving the vehicle. Soon after, my service consultant, Nacho, met me at the car. Checked it in and got a loaner vehicle in about 10 minutes. All personnel were professional and courteous. I received a call from Nacho a few hours later indicating the car was finished, but the technician found a fault in one of the sensors that could be an issue later. Upon arriving my car was ready and cleaned. Nacho explained my options for taking care of the issue, so I could starting planning. Overall, service was quick, yet thorough. Audi SD personnel were attentive and provided quality service. Good job!

People cannot believe how much I paid for my car. It looks great, has great functionality, awesome gas mileage, and I really love this car.

I have purchased three new Audi's during the past 2 1/2 years from Audi San Diego, the most recent car purchased was a 2018 Q5. They have the widest inventory, and the sales and service people are exceptional. My saleslady for the three cars was Natasha Fulton, the best, and Scott Kealy in service provides exceptional service. Highly recommend this dealership and the people I have mentioned.

I have owned vehicles produced by Oldsmobile, Mitsubishi, and Volkswagen. The Audi A3 is very quiet and comfortable. The seat adjusts so that I am able to enjoy long rides in this car. The quality of the interior is of acceptable quality. The car is very responsive and stable, and I feel very secure in this car. I am very happy with this purchase, and will most likely only purchase from Audi in the future.

Was surprised when I was told the high cost ($962.57) estimate of my routine service. Nacho is a good guy and make $1,000 bill not feel so bad.

It is small, beautiful and fast. I enjoy driving it a lot. I feel safe in it. I am a new driver, but it doesn't feel hard for me to drive at all.
