 It's very fun to drive, turns heads, and likely to be in the shop getting expensive repairs.  This car, and Audis in general, are notorious for developing lots of little oil leaks. For some reason, the oil seals and gaskets only last about three or four years.  The parts are not expensive, but the labor is.  So they drop in price very quickly once the warranty expires.  This can be a great bargain if you are moderately skilled at doing your own repairs, or a great expense if you pay dealership labor rates.
