Very medicore mech reliability JD Power scores for 2001 Audi A6?

Hello!

I am considering buying a 2001 Audi A6 2.7T with the 6 speed.

I was kind of stunned when I saw that JD Power gave the 2001 model a
score of 2 for mechanical reliability in the midterm (1-3 yrs) time
frame. This is the lowest score they show, lumping it in with "the
rest." 5 is "among the best."

Should I be concerned with this? I take very good care of my cars and
like to drive them to 150K+ before I even start to think of getting
another. Some people have said to me the difference between Japanese
cars and German cars is that Japanese cars will last no matter how
badly you abuse them, but the German cars will hurt you only if you
don't maintain them.

Appreciate thoughts and comments.
