Rare Nogaro Blue, Stage 2, 6 Speed, 320hp/370tq on 2040-cars
Montgomery, New York, United States
Here's a 360 degree video of the car -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuJWbljXAZw I've had the car since 2003 and have loved every minute of it. It's been largely garage kept and is virtually spotless. Although it's never been dyno'd, it should produce somewhere around 320hp/370tq. Here are the upgrades: - GIAC 93-octane chip (adds 110ft/lb tq & 85hp) - I have never put anything except 93+ octane gas in the car since I bought it @ 30k miles - Full MTM, stainless steel exhaust - Two Forge 007 diverter valves - Samco f-hose & throttle body boot (silicon) - OEM RS4 clutch kit (replaced @ ~100k miles) - Slotted and drilled rotors (front only) - Hawk brake pads - Timing belt & water pump (replaced in November 2012) - H&R Sport springs - Bilstein shocks (the two rear shocks were replaced in January 2013) - 18" Avant Garde M310 wheels (matte black) - Continental ExtremeContact DWS (225/40/ZR18) tires - Alpine IVA-D900 head unit (7" screen, DVD player, XM radio, etc) with custom, leather-wrapped dash kit - 12" MTX subwoofer & amplifier - Turbo timer (installed @ 30k miles) - 50% window tint (black) - E-code headlights (clear blinker as opposed to the stock yellow) - 55w HID headlights - 55w yellow fog lights - Vent-mounted boost gauge - Rubber & OEM cloth floor mats |

Audi releases quartet of A3 commercials, likely headed for Super Bowl
Fri, 27 Dec 2013With the announcement from Audi that it's new A3 would be the star of this year's Super Bowl advertising efforts still relatively fresh, it comes as a bit of a shock that what may be game-bound ads for the new small car are already starting to show up.
A3forums found four ads for the new A3, all of which are currently unlisted on YouTube, that play on the idea of young drivers saving themselves for the right luxury car. The spots are amusing, although we'll admit that we've seen better from Audi. Each spot plays like a clip from a documentary, with owners of cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus talking about their regrets when it came to buying a luxury car, rather than waiting for the A3.
We've got all four videos below, so take a look now, as we're betting they'll be pulled before too long.
Delphi plans automated-driving journey across the United States
Fri, Mar 13 2015Delphi is attempting to become the first company to pilot an automated car across the United States. The global automotive supplier will start a cross-country journey from a location near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco starting on Sunday, March 22, and cover approximately 3,500 miles on a trip to New York, where it will arrive sometime during the New York Auto Show. Along the way, Delphi engineers will gather data on how the car, an Audi SQ5, performs in a variety of road and weather conditions that the company says could only be tested in a real-world environment. "Delphi had great success testing its car in California and on the streets of Las Vegas," said Jeff Owens, the company's chief technology officer. "Now it's time to put our vehicle to the ultimate test by broadening the range of driving conditions." A formal announcement is expected tomorrow during the SXSW festival in Austin, TX. The company recently demonstrated many of its advanced-safety and automated driving technologies during CES, driving in Las Vegas. The cross-country trip will include tests on its radar, vision and advanced-drive assistance systems, certain vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, and intelligent software, which includes automated highway pilot with lane-change technology, automated urban pilot and automated parking functions. Though a driver will be behind the wheel throughout the journey, Delphi says its active safety technologies can make complex decisions, like stopping and proceeding at four-way stops, timing highway merges and calculating safe maneuvers around bicyclists. While California has certain motor-vehicle laws that help regulate autonomous vehicles, it was unclear whether Delphi needs special arrangements or permission from other states to conduct automated-vehicle testing elsewhere – or if those concerns might be negated by an active driver. Earlier this year, Audi turned heads at CES by driving an A7 from San Francisco to Las Vegas in a similar display of automated-driving technology.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
