Year:2005 Mileage:76730
Location:

Harrisonburg, Virginia, United States

Shipping and payment:  Cash or Cashier's Check.  Buyer to arrange for pick-up/delivery.  Vehicle located in Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, two hours from DC or Richmond; six hours from NYC.

History: Bought vehicle from a dealer in northern Virginia in September 2009, with 35K miles.  One prior owner.  Had it ever since (5+ years).  Even though it is an AWD Quattro, it never has been out in snow or ice.  One minor accident involving front passenger fender area.  Repairs made.  Always has been garage stored.  Two things to know about the history:  (1) History shows frame/unibody damage - prior to my purchase.  In fact, the report of the damage was not made till five months after my purchase.  Inspection I commissioned indicated that the damage was fully repaired - and, there have been no issues with this during my ownership.  (2) History shows two odometer issues - on AutoCheck, not CarFax.  One before I purchased vehicle and one recently.  The first is clearly a clerical error - mileage was 34,549 in Aug 2009 and then reported at 39,549 in Sept 2009 - the 4 clearly was misread as a 9.  Then, I purchased it at 35K and that made things look like a rollback.  Since this would be a crime, AutoCheck should have pursued the matter with law enforcement authorities or confirmed the accuracy of the Sept 2009 report; it did neither.  The car was on a lot and did not likely get driven exactly 5,000 miles in 30 days on a lot.  Common sense....  The second shows mileage at 129K, but I have complete records from date of purchase through today that shows mileage.  It's at 76,725 as of this afternoon and five more miles to get home.  76,730 right now in my garage.  Someone entered mileage from another car, not this one.  So, what all this means is that the history shows these situations and this has a severe impact on the value for trade with a dealer.  But, these things do not affect the quality of this vehicle.  The price reflects a deep discount (of $5,000+) due to all this.

Features:  Just about as fully equipped as this model could be in 2005.  Premium Package.  

Condition:  The vehicle body is in very good condition.  The paint is still shines like new but there are a few areas where it's flaked. Some road chip mark in front.  Minor paint issues.  The interior is in excellent condition.  Engine is in excellent shape.  Exhaust system excellent. Pipes are excellent.   Needs a new airbag sensor for passenger seat.  $300.  Price also reflects this expense.  With that, you would have a car that still turns heads.  Will send you photos if you're seriously interested.  And, will answer any questions you have.

Without the history issues and the airbag sensor replacement needed, this vehicle merits a pricing at $16,500 - $17,000.   To make it attractive to someone who would love to enjoy this car, I am discounting it $6,000+ for the history issues and $500 for the airbag sensor replacement.   The price is $10,500.  Won't find one like it for that.

Autoblog Minute: Nokia to sell Here mapping for $3.1B

Wed, Aug 5 2015

In a three company partnership the German automakers BMW, Audi and Daimler are set to take ownership of Nokia's Here mapping technology. Autoblog's Eddie Sabatini reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] In a battle for Nokia's highly coveted mapping technology the auto industry claims victory over Silicon Valley. I'm Eddie Sabatini and this is your Autoblog Minute. In a three company partnership the German automakers BMW, Audi and Daimler are set to take ownership of Nokia's Here mapping technology. The Wall Street Journal writes that the automakers had concerns that the technology might fall under the [00:00:30]control of companies like Google, Uber, or Apple. The purchase, worth a reported 3.1 billion dollars, is still subject to antitrust evaluation before it's finalized; but this early news is already a big win for the German three. Ownership of Nokia's Here tech means that automakers won't lose control of the information systems that go into their cars. The deal, if approved, is expected to close in first quarter of 2016.

New Audi Allroad Shooting Brake concept images leak out, next TT previewed?

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

The Detroit Auto Show media preview kicks off on Monday, which means the time is just about ripe for previously embargoed images and information to start leaking out onto the web in a major way. Case in point is this Allroad Shooting Brake from Audi, a seemingly close-to-production vehicle that may foreshadow the styling of the upcoming Audi TT, or hint at the looks of a Q1, or both.
The TT bit may seem far fetched, but we do know that Audi has used a small wagon concept to preview the design of an upcoming TT before - back in 2006 before the release of the gen-two car. We also fully anticipate the Q1 to be breaking cover sooner rather than later, so the safe money is that the concept closely resembles what that production vehicle will ultimately look like, though perhaps with a bit more height overall.
And, frankly, be it a TT or Q1 or both, we like what we're seeing. Sharp character lines on a rounded body form follow the idiom of the current TT rather nicely, while the big-wheels-at-all-corners stance plays into the sporting character we'd expect from any small Audi. Inside, we see the same Virtual Cockpit, MMI controller, and vents that we recently took in at CES, though with a slightly different steering wheel (with the starter button built right in). Tidy work here, too.

Mattias Ekstr?m unleashes bonkers 600-hp Audi S1 Supercar on World RX

Sat, 26 Apr 2014

Mattias Ekström doesn't need to prove anything. He's won the DTM title twice and before that the Swedish Touring Car Championship. But being a racing driver as he is, Ekström has been looking for new challenges. He's contested the Swedish Rally six times, the German Rally twice, he's driven in V8 Supercars and in NASCAR. He's even won the Race of Champions. Twice. Heck, we're surprised his long-time sponsor Red Bull hasn't let him try out one of its F1 cars. But this season it's on to a new challenge: the inaugural FIA World Rallycross Championship.
Ekström drove a Volkswagen Polo fielded by Marklund Motorsport in the Swedish rallycross round last season and came in second, but this year he's diving in head-first with his own team and his own car. His outfit EKS is hard at work preparing the new Audi S1 for competition in the World RX Championship, and will field two of them this season: one for Ekström and another for JWRC champion Pontus Tidemand.
Built to compete in the top category of the championship, the EKS Audi S1 Supercar will pack a 2.0-liter turbo four with 600 horsepower, all-wheel drive and a 0-60 time of 1.9 seconds. It's expected to make its debut late in May at the World RX of Great Britain where it will have to tangle with specially prepared versions of the Citroën DS3, Ford Fiesta ST and Peugeot 208 driven by the likes of Tanner Foust, Ken Block, Jacques Villeneuve and Petter Solberg. The sole North American round will be held in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, in early August, on the same circuit that once hosted Indy Lights, ALMS, Grand-Am, Can-Am and Trans-Am races.
