 This car is in good running condition. Gets about 24mpg overall, 148K miles. Seats up to 7 with 3rd row rear facing seat. We've upgraded to a larger vehicle (van) so we don't need this car.

We are at least third owner (not sure about the history before the previous owner). We've owned the car for a couple of years, using it mostly as a commuter (300+ miles per week). When we bought it, we had to replace the water pump. We've done regular maintenance (oil, tires, fluids, etc.) but no other repairs to the car.

WA state tabs are good through January 2014.

The condition of the car is noted below.

Exterior:
No dents or major defects.
Some paint scratches on the color-matched bumpers.
All outside electrical/lights/signals work.
Minor vibration from AWD at speeds of 30-45mph.
Good running condition, engine/transmission are strong and smooth.

Interior:
Power windows/doors work.
AC blows very cold.
CC works well.
Integrated phone was removed by previous owner.
Headliner loose/wrinkled by sunroof.
Leather seats have cracking and wear.
Power outlets do not have power.
Rear outside door latch is disconnected (works from inside).
Oil pressure sending unit not working (oil pressure is fine).
BOSE stereo system isn't working.
Rear facing third row seat is loose on one end.

Kelley Blue Book values this vehicle in FAIR condition at $4,236.00. The running condition of the car is FAIR-to-GOOD, but the interior is in low FAIR condition. We've priced the car to reflect these conditions.

Vehicle inspection and test drives can be arranged in the local area. We are in Gig Harbor, and can meet there or along the I-5 corridor between Tacoma and Everett. Contact us if you are interested.

Cash or cashier's check will be accepted. No terms or monthly/time payments, please.

'Worldwide, every third Audi will be an SUV by 2020'

Tue, 07 May 2013

Automotive News Europe reports the new Audi manufacturing facility in San Jose Chiapa, Mexico will increase the automaker's production capacity for the Q5 SUV by 150,000 units per year. While the plant will supply every market with the exception of China, most of the production is slated to head to the US.
While speaking with ANE, Audi CEO Rupert Stradler said, "Worldwide, every third Audi will be an SUV by 2020." So far this year, 40 percent of Audi vehicles sold in the US have been light trucks, with the company's sales in that segment jumping by 53 percent. By comparison, Audi passenger car sales have increased by just one percent.
The first Q5 vehicles from the San Hose Chiapa plant will show up on dealer lots in 2016. Audi of America recently received a larger 9,000-unit allocation of Q5 models after seeing sales increase 36 percent through April compared to the same period in 2012.

MotorWeek revisits Audi's iconic Quattro

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

The Subaru WRX, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and just about every other all-wheel-drive performance car owes something to the legendary Audi Quattro, a model that was far more successful on the motorsports scene than it was in the showroom. Despite its modest sales, the UrQuattro still looms large in automotive lore, and indeed, in Audi's own sense of self. Considering the brand's semi-regular flirtation with the idea of a reborn Quattro, MotorWeek must have figured it'd be a good idea to revisit the original by digging up this archival review.
While time has the ability to cover up the warts of iconic automobiles, it should be noted that Motor Week host John Davis had more than a few critiques for the all-wheel-drive, turbocharged coupe.
Davis calls the Quattro's slalom handling "a disappointment," citing the overpowered engine and slow steering, and he had some unkind words for the brakes, as well. For our part, we're kind of wowed by the amount of ship-like body motion during testing, yet that sort of bobbing was certainly par for the course back in the early '80s.

Audi confirms autonomous tech for next-gen A8

Wed, Jul 15 2015

Like so many of its rivals, Audi is hard at work getting its autonomous driving technology up to speed and ready to reach the market. And now it's revealed when we can expect that time to come – or at least in what form it will arrive. In announcing the achievements of its latest RS7 Piloted Driving prototype, Audi has confirmed that the system will be offered for the first time on the next A8, the upcoming iteration of the German automaker's flagship sedan. Just as we heard this past January, the next-gen A8 will be able to drive itself around town at speeds of up to 37 miles per hour. Ingolstadt still isn't saying when we can expect the new A8 to arrive, but considering that the current model has been around since 2009 (albeit with periodic updates along the way) and that its key rivals – the Mercedes S-Class and BMW 7 Series – are both much newer models, Audi shouldn't be waiting much longer to launch its new flagship. The announcement was made as part of the reveal for "Robby," the latest version of the company's self-driving RS7 concept. The previous version, dubbed "Bobby," was based on the same model, and gave our man Jonathon Buckley over at Translogic a run for his money around Ascari a few months ago. (We'll let you watch the video below to see who fared better). But the new version is a good 882 pounds lighter, lapping the Sonoma Raceway (previously known as Infineon or Sears Point) in 2:01.01. That's in what is ostensibly still a road car, just one that's operated by a computer. The fastest lap ever recorded on the full 2.5-mile circuit, in case you were wondering, was also achieved in an Audi, but that was the R8 Le Mans Prototype that Allan McNish hustled around in a 1:20.68 qualifying lap.

On one of the world's most challenging race tracks, the Sonoma Raceway in California, the latest generation of the Audi RS 7 piloted driving concept has surpassed previous top performances once again. Audi will be offering piloted driving for the first time in the upcoming generation of the Audi A8.
