2000 Audi A4 Quattro Avant Wagon 4-door 1.8l on 2040-cars
Fairfax, California, United States
This is a tuner car that I have been having fun with since about 2005. Over the years I consistently searched out and purchased quality parts and components and had most of them professionally installed by 034 Motorsports, or Kovacs Motors (San Rafael, CA). Used as a back up commuter car for most of its life. Never tracked unfortunately, but pretty much ready for some 1/4 mile blasts or a nice day any any good road course. It has a significant amount of tasteful modifications and might just be what you are looking for. Wife says I have to sell this and one of my bikes, see my other auctions if you like turbo motorcycles. This vehicle is a "big turbo car". If you have never driven a "big turbo car" it is good to know that they ultimately sacrifice low end torque for top end horsepower. This car is no exception. It does have to spool the turbo, but at 22PSI on California 91 Octane pump gas, everything over 4500 RPM is exciting. Freeway onramps are very fun... Performance Enhancements: ENGINE:

The Good: This car is very clean with lots of professionally installed upgrades. Given that it is running a remapped Stock ECU, any problem that might occur would easily diagnosed as if the vehicle was stock. It is very clean cosmetically and only has some small areas where wear and tear were inevitable. The car dynoed on California pump gas at 265 AWDHP which is well over 300HP at the crank. There are Wideband 02 and EGT sensors installed. Adjustable digital boost controller in glovebox. Tinted windows. Full on sleeper. The Not So Good:
The Bad: (NOTE: CALIFORNIA BUYERS PAY ATTENTION) In April of 2013 I took the car to get smogged in my home region of Northern California. Given the extensive mods the car was flagged as a "gross polluter" given that it did not have the "secondary air pump" installed. This is true. Smog laws and testing are getting more strict in CA and they finally caught up with this vehicle. I have all the required parts and can ship with the car. I can not guarantee that this car can be easily somgged in CA given that it officially failed a visual smog inspection. It never had problems passing any of the sniff tests, but with missing parts, it did not pass the visual inspection. Extra Parts:

YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.

Audi's new 1,000-hp hybrid pulls like a freight train
Tue, Nov 3 2015Audi's latest plug-in hybrid handles like it's on rails, and pulls like a freight train. That's because it's a train, and literally rides on rails. The vehicle in question is a locomotive which the German automaker developed for its main factory in Ingolstadt incorporates over 11 miles of railroad tracks, along which are transported parts and completed vehicles to be moved around the site. To carry out those duties, Audi teamed up with French manufacturer Alston to deploy a new hybrid locomotive on premises. The locomotive features a plug-in hybrid propulsion systems capable of running on electric power alone for two hours at a time, and can be plugged in to recharge during down-time. The upshot is that it not only pollutes less overall, but can be run inside warehouses more safely. When the power runs out, the electrical system is backed up by a diesel engine. Audi reports that 15 trains arrive at the factory every day. It employs 17 locomotive drivers on site. And each locomotive runs for 3,800 hours each year. Whether we can take Audi at its word when it comes to diesel emissions or not, the company claims that the new hybrid locomotive cuts its carbon emissions by half, taking 60 tons of CO2 out of the atmosphere each year. 10/30/15 Ingolstadt Hybrid locomotive at Audi plant in Ingolstadt This Audi drives on rails: A 1,000 horsepower plug in hybrid locomotive manufactured by Alstom replaces the plant locomotives previously used at the Audi plant in Ingolstadt as of today. This means that components and finished Audi models will now reach the plant's loading stations in a more climate friendly way. "Our goal is all-round sustainable logistics," stated Johann Schmid, head of the Audi plant railway in Ingolstadt. "The new railway technology allows more economical, energy-efficient and low-emission rail transport. In connection with the latest chassis technology, the plug-in-hybrid locomotive sets new standards in shunting and rail transport." The complete automobile plant in Ingolstadt includes 18 kilometers of railways. Every day, 15 goods trains arrive at Ingolstadt North railway station for Audi – loaded with pressed parts, engines and transmissions, as well as cars from other Audi sites that are ready for delivery to customers. And cars produced in Ingolstadt also start their journey to customers by rail. 17 Audi locomotive drivers work at the plant railway. One of their tasks is to allocate the wagons to the various plant buildings.
