1990 Audi 90 20v Quattro

Very rare Audi that was only made with this engine in 1990 and 1991.  It was offered in both a coupe and a sedan.  During those two years Audi built around 1700 coupes and less than 1000 sedans.  They came with tons of features that were pretty far ahead of the times back then.  It was equipped with power everything, heated seats, automatic climate control, a power moonroof, drivers airbag, headligh washers, integrated ski bag, a factory rear spoiler, BBS alloy wheels and with things that are still unheard for today like an ABS kill switch and a locking rear differential.  

Here is an article that Automobile Magazine did on this car under its collectible classics section a few years ago.

automobilemag.com/features/collectible_classic/1011_1990_1991_audi_90_quattro_20v 

I had been looking for one of these for quite some time in unmodified condition.  It was a 2 owner car that was originally purchased in Roanoke Virginia (autocheck is counting title events from when the second owner moved from Virginia to North Carolina as a new owner).  I found it when the second owners son convinced his mother to sell it and get it out of their yard where it had been sitting for a while.  Due to it sitting it had some issues and I have addressed nearly all of them and have over $2000 worth of receipts dated since October to prove it!!  It is now in great running condition.  The engine is strong and has great compression and the Quattro all wheel drive works great (check out the snow pic)!!  The interior is also in great shape with no rips or tears in the seats, and no major stains, the power windows and locks are all working as well

Here is a partial list of parts and maintenance items that I have completed (again I have receipts for all of this no gimmicks here).  I have used only oem or oem spec parts and have not modified the car in anyway, except for the radio (I wanted something with an aux input and found the most factory looking radio I could).  I still have the factory radio and it will be included.


Front and rear struts
Front and rear strut mounts and boots
4 new tires
2 Front wheel bearings
Front breaks
Rear Rotors
Rear Breaks
Tie Rod assemblies (inner and outter ends)
Steering rack boot 
Front ball joints
Rear ball joints
Drivers side Window regulator
Front control arm bushings (4 total)
Rear control arm bushings (4 total)
Front sway bar links
Thermostat
Oil change
Several new switches 
Radio/rear speakers
Headlights
Custom exhaust repair
Power steering hose
Hydraulic fluid
Full size matching BBS alloy wheel as a spare


So onto some things I haven't completed.  It still needs a good detail inside and out.  The headliner isn't sagging but has some stains and was cut along the side when the previous owner had a phone installed (yes a car phone not a cell phone!!). The interior dome light isn't working could just be bulbs but I haven't played with it.  There are some minor body work issues that you may want to fix (minor dents) they didn't bother me but they are there (luckily the white paint doesn't show much).  The drivers side seat heater is not working, the passenger side works great but I haven't looked into the drivers side yet.  I did pick up a new switch for it but I haven't replaced it yet and I'm not sure that's the problem.  The rear differential is a little wet it looks like the axle seals are seeping a little but I have checked the fluid and the level is good so I haven't touched that yet either.  Germanautoparts website sells the seal kit for $80.  The AC is not working and would need converted to r134a.   The only other thing I can think of is the fog lights, one of them has a shattered lens and I haven't been able to find a replacement.  The other one is in good shape but I had to pull it out to pass Virginia inspection.  I know that sounds like a lot but I am just don't want there to be any surprises!

As you can see in the pictures I have two keys, the original owners manual, and a Bentley repair manual.  I also have some receipts from the previous owner that include a $3000 service from 2007.  Some spare switches for the interior, the factory radio and a few other spare parts that will be included with the car.  

So why am I getting rid of it after all this hard work and money invested?  I unfortunately can't afford a project car at this point and even though its in great shape now it is still a 24 year old car and anything can happen so I have decided to move on.  

Feel free to call, text or email me with any questions.

Audi billboard tracks pedestrians like prison escapees

Wed, Oct 14 2015

Audi's adaptive Matrix LED headlights can actively dim and direct light around the road to make driving safer at night. Unfortunately, the tech runs afoul of Department of Transportation rules, so it isn't currently available in the United States. For an idea of what you're missing, a marketing stunt for the new A4 in Belgium is illuminating the night and making pedestrians in the intersection more visible, and safer. The only problem is, it also makes them look like fugitives making an escape. From a giant billboard near the Brussels Central Station, the LEDs from a massive Audi A4 can light up whole intersection. Whenever a pedestrian or cyclist enters the area at night, they are tracked the whole way in a radiant pillar of blue luminescence. Based on this clip, the lights look bright enough to temporarily blind some passersby. Despite the unintended consequences, the stunt is still a very visible demonstration of Audi's headlight technology. Related Video: The video meant to be presented here is no longer available. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Watch the Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro long-tail testing at Monza

Thu, 02 May 2013

Audi released a single photo of the long-tailed version of its R18 E-Tron Quattro Le Mans racer, but the photo didn't offer the best view of the stretched rear. The car has been caught testing at Monza, in Italy, and not only do we get a better view of what it's got out back, we get pretty awesome sound as it makes high-speed runs past the camera.
Since the 2013-spec car was found to be down on performance versus the 2012, the long-tail is a different evolution to see if Audi can eke out more performance from its already dominant chassis. Have a look and a listen in the video below.

Audi design getting big overhaul?

Tue, 16 Apr 2013

Car and Driver has an update on the design shuffle in Ingolstadt that will ultimately bring more differentiation to Audi products. Last November, Audi design chief Wolfgang Egger spoke of the need to do "something new without breaking from tradition" in Audi design, but talk at the time centered on how the Crosslane Coupe Concept would influence the new looks of the brand's Q cars. The most recent moves appear focused on passenger cars, with designers from Volkswagen Group kin like Bentley and Seat moving to Audi, and outsiders from Alfa Romeo moving in.
While Egger decreed the end of "scalable design" to CD, last November's report said there would be more technology and "greater visual cohesion" between interior and exterior design. We still have no idea what all this means nor when we'll see visible changes in production, but at least we know there's something being done behind the scenes.
