For sale a BEAUTIFUL Audi A7 2012, reason for the sale I got another toy so I have to let this beauty go, Window sticker 70,030 plus the car has 5,500 in upgrades. that include. $2,300 for the AWE exhaust with black diamond tips (cat back so no problems with emissions) and several VAG COM mods that I liked, you can customize different options, for example I like the needle sweep when I start the car, LED stays on with turning lights, LEDS doesn't dim with the headlights, closing/opening the trunk with the remote, Video In Motion (the DVD is viewable while driving for the passengers enjoyment), front side markers cancelled, etc. If you are familiar with Audi performance numbers, you know Audi underrate their cars in an average of 12-13%, when you put them in a dyno, the numbers are higher than advertised, this car stock is really around 350hp (we tested it), with the modifications you get around 110hp more, so this car has around 460hp. Another reason for this, is marketing, Audi uses the same engine in different models but in order to sell the most expensive one, it underrates the power of the cheaper, a perfect example of this is the S7 vs the RS7, they share basically the same engine, but the RS7 is advertised with 560hp vs 420hp of the S7. In reality a S7 has around 480hp but who would buy a RS7 if you can get basically the same car for 30k less, same with the S8 it is advertised at 520hp and Motor Trend got almost 600hp in their test. This car is FAST, the modifications exploited the real power of the V6 3.0T without causing extra stress to the engine nor the transmission (the tiptronic is a ZF 8hp55a capable of a max of 480flbs) , the car has never used in drag racing nor anything like that, I just wanted to have the real power of the engine at the disposal of my right foot. BUT I did use an app to test the car and I got the following numbers 0-60mph 4.13s, 0-100mph 9.56s, 1/4 mile 12.47s @114.91mph (pics attached) This is a video of a stage 2 Audi S4 vs Mercedes CLS63 AMG, the A7 is heavier but still you can have an idea of the power of the GIAC Stage 2 tune. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07izgzafIwQ I am not by any means a "fast and furious" type of guy, but I am a car enthusiast and I like that cars drive optimally, the mods are based in good taste and towards improving performance and fun to drive, the car is a sleeper, you cannot tell of the car's potential until you drive it, the only visual difference against a stock one is the Eibach springs drop and the AWE exhaust tips (the very last picture shows a wheel before the drop, so you can compare vs the others) the V6 3.0T supercharged engine is one of the best engines that Audi has produced, this video shows how a tuned S4 goes against a RS4, and this is one in particular is just a Stage 1 , the Stage 2 along with the intake and the exhaust is even faster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KfMY96v_Gc why de-tune an engine instead of getting the most out of it? simple, marketing, just like the S7 vs RS7 example, who would pay more for a RS4 if the S4 is as fast with a proper tune, but Audi is not the only one who does this, Mercedes did it with the C63 AMG, the first generation of this car was detuned 67 hp less than the older "brothers" E, CL, CLS, S, it is not good marketing to have the cheapest of the line to outrun the flagship of the brand. The AWE exhaust is one of the most beautiful sounds, it sounds like a throaty V8, no cabin drone, no excessive noise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi1keWsEjeg This car is as fast as a S7 but more nimble because it is lighter, and at 155mph you can say goodbye to the S7 because the car is not limited (speed governor removed) (the A7 stock is limited at 130mph) Besides all the modifications the car is 100% street legal and emissions in CA, no problems with smog testing nor anything (although is not required until 2018) the car is under warranty, no TD1 code nor anything like that, the car is serviced at the Audi dealer all the time and they are aware of the modifications with no problem. I can strip the car of all the extra equipment and put it back to stock, but I really think somebody can enjoy this car as it is and get all the extra equipment for a fraction of the cost, if you drive this car you will fall in love with it. Writing this ad I am getting more and more sellers remorse, but it is not fair for the car to be parked there, I have other 3 vehicles and I will not be using it that often. The car is paid and clear title in hand, I know the asking price is a little above what other A7s are selling, but the upgrades are worth it, serious and fair offers will be considered, low ballers please do not waste my time and I will not waste yours, this car is meant for a final car enthusiast not for a dealer to make money out of it, I reserve the right to withdraw the ad at any time if I change my mind about selling it. The car comes with all the stock parts, and a pair of two extra yokohama sport tires that I never installed. Please feel free to ask me anything I will gladly answer your questions. Happy new year. |

Germany says nein to EU ban on new fossil-fuel cars from 2035
Tue, Jun 21 2022BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's government will not agree to European Union plans to effectively ban the sale of new cars with combustion engines from 2035, Finance Minister Christian Lindner said on Tuesday. In its bid to cut planet-warming emissions by 55% by 2030 from 1990 levels, the European Commission has proposed a 100% reduction in CO2 emissions from new cars by 2035. That means it would be impossible to sell combustion engine cars from then. European Parliament lawmakers backed the proposals this month, before negotiations with EU countries on the final law take place. Speaking at an event hosted by Germany's BDI industry association, Lindner said there would continue to be niches for combustion engines so a ban was wrong and said the government would not agree to this European legislation. Lindner, a member of the pro-business Free Democrats, which shares power with the Social Democrats and Greens, said Germany would still be a leading market for electric vehicles.

Audi, McLaren to bring winning cars back to Le Mans
Tue, May 19 2015Now gearing up for its 83rd running, the 24 Hours of Le Mans is as much about history as it is about racing forward. So this year, two key outfits in the event's history are celebrating by bringing back the cars with which they dominated in years past. Audi has been a force to be reckoned with and the team to beat at Le Mans in the modern era. It still may not have topped its sister brand and chief rival Porsche's record 16 wins, but Audi's 13 have all come in the past fifteen years since the turn of the millennium. That's one heck of a winning streak, which the German outfit will highlight by bringing every single one of its winning prototypes back to La Sarthe this year. From the R8 that kicked it all off in 2000 through the diesel R10 TDI to the R18 E-Tron Quattro that won last year. Ingolstadt won't be alone in racing down memory lane. McLaren announced it will be bringing back all five F1 GTRs that dominated the race in 1995. The quintet that finished first, third, fourth and thirteenth overall will lead a parade lap around the French circuit, joined by the new P1 GTR that will be making its dynamic debut as well as the customer examples of the special edition 650S Le Mans. What's more, winning drivers from '95 – Yannick Dalmas, Masanori Sekiya and JJ Lehto – will be on hand to participate in the parade lap as well, further highlighting the occasion.

Since 2000, the brand has won the race 13 times. This year, Audi has assembled all of its Le Mans winning models for a group photo for the first time. Every single one of them represents 'Vorsprung durch Technik.' The string of victories began with the Audi R8 in 2000. "Following a year of learning and gathering experience at Le Mans, we started the 2000 season with a completely new design," says Head of Audi Motorsport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich.
Get a load of Audi's TTs [w/videos + poll]
Wed, 05 Mar 2014The third-generation Audi TT coupe has made its debut here at the Geneva Motor Show, showing an evolutionary design for the German automaker's fashion-forward coupe. As expected, the new TT takes plenty of inspiration from the Sport Quattro Concept that debuted in Frankfurt last year, and it draws upon cues from the model's past two generations.
After seeing it in person, the Autoblog crew on-site in Geneva is sort of torn about the new model. It's crisp and well-proportioned, but in terms of its exterior design, it also doesn't come off like a significant generational leap forward - the aesthetic distance between the original TT and the second-generation model was quite a bit larger. Of course, it's hard to reimagine a design icon, and either way we'll have to wait until we see the car on the road to make final judgments.
Audi is offering a trio of engines for the new TT, including a 2.0-liter turbodiesel powerplant that's good for 184 horsepower, 280 pound-feet of torque and an excellent 56 miles per gallon. On the gasoline front, Audi is offering two versions of its well-liked 2.0-liter TSI turbo-four. The less-powerful spec still offers up a healthy 230 hp and 272 lb-ft of torque, while the higher-output 2.0T sends 310 hp and 280 lb-ft of twist to all four wheels in the TTS coupe. Potent stuff.
