Selling my Used  2002 Audi S6 Avant 4.2L
This car is Extremely well maintained.
I am selling this car primarily because I purchased an A3 TDI for better gas mileage.  This car is  wicked fast and handles like a 2 door coupe sports car.  The S6 truly is the perfect car for someone who wants space and sport.  The car has had over $5000 in maintenance, repairs and upgrades in the past two years.  If I had to rate the car I would say the exterior is a 7.5/interior a 9
Here are some of the repairs:
*New transmission 200 miles ago.
*New front brakes and rotors
*Valve cover gaskets were replaced last fall
*All oil sensors were replaced and new gaskets were installed.
*Exhaust manifold gaskets were replaced.
*Power steering was flushed and new washers and gaskets were installed (almost a rebuild)
*19" gunmetal grey wheels were installed and brand new performance tires were mounted this spring.
*CV Boots were done
*Coolant flush done last fall
*Timing belt and water pump were done at around 87,000 miles

I know I am missing something but those are the main ones.  I have the receipts for every repair done. 
Here is the story of what this car is:
The Audi S6 boasts a very strong 4.2-liter, 340-hp V8 engine, a performance-tuned version of the one that sat in the Audi A8. But not a lot of aftermarket performance parts were made for the S6 due to it being a relatively rare car. There were only about 900 sent over to the U.S. and it was only in production for 2002 and 2003, so the second generation Audi S6 is somewhat unique and rare on the road, adding to its stylish cache. Although after its initial demise in 2003, the third generation S6 has made a come back in 2007.

The second generation S6 only came as a wagon, meaning it offered the space, cargo capacity, and practicality of a family car, the confident road grip of quattro, plus the sports car-like handling of a flashier racer....its a low key rocket.  With a power-to-weight ratio of 184.57 bhp/ton, this 4000lb wagon does 0-62mph in about 6 seconds. Top speed is electronically limited 155 mph, some have said given enough road the car could reach the better side of 180mph.

It features all of the interior amenities Audi prides itself on offering, as well as sporty touches in its distinct grille, dual exhaust pipes, and brushed aluminum mirror moldings.

The negative of this car:

*small rust bubbles on rear hatch below the window (very easy fix as it is just bubbles

*exterior paint has minor scratches.  They are not bad and expected for the year of the car.

*minor paint chip on rear bumper that is only visible when close up

Volkswagen Group sales down 15% in pandemic year, but EV sales up 214%

Wed, Jan 13 2021

FRANKFURT, Germany — German automaker Volkswagen said its global sales fell 15.2% during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic but showed significant recovery toward the end of the year. The company more than tripled its sales of battery-only vehicles. Global sales for all of Volkswagen's brands amounted to 9.3 million vehicles. The fourth quarter showed a smaller decline of 5.7% and within that quarter the month of December was still further improved, showing a shortfall of only 3.2% from the same period the year before. Volkswagen said Wednesday that sales fell the most in Western Europe, by 21.6%, while China, the company's largest single market, was down 9.1% Sales of battery-only cars jumped 214% to 231,600 from 73,700 across all the company's brands. The company's electric sales leaders included the Volkswagen ID.3 compact, with 56,500, the Audi E-Tron SUV with 47,300, and the high-end Porsche Taycan with 20,000. Volkswagen said that its sales fell by less than the overall market, meaning it had slightly expanded its market share. “The COVID-19 pandemic made 2020 an extremely challenging year,” said group sales chief Christian Dahlheim. “The Volkswagen Group performed well in this environment and strengthened its market position." Volkswagen Group's brands include Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, SEAT, and Skoda as sell as truck makers MAN and Scania.

Audi R8 V10 Plus vs. Renault Clio Cup racecar will make you go hmmm...

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

Match up a hot hatch with a supercar of the same vintage, and we'll tell you who will win every time. It's easy, really, as the supercar invariably features a more advanced suspension, stickier tires and most importantly, more power. What if the hot hatch is race prepped, though?
In that particular case, all bets are off. A circuit-tuned suspension, a stripped-down cabin, an ultra-quick sequential transmission and the greatest equalizer of them all, slick tires, are all that's needed to turn the typical hot hatch into a proper dragon slayer.
Perhaps seeking to prove this, Evo has put together an interesting head-to-head between the Audi R8 V10 and a race-prepared Renault Clio Cup. Host Dickie Meaden takes us through each car, highlighting the bits and bobs on both sides which should make this a tight competition. And boy, is this one tight.

2013 Audi RS Q3

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

The year 1994 was a really good year for German performance fans, because it was that year when Audi released its very first official RS model (for "RennSport," or racing sport), the RS2 Avant. Recently, I was invited to participate in a three-day leg of the Audi Land of Quattro Alpen Tour, a blatant flaunting over hill and dale of the company's current lineup of RS models. We hit Austria, Switzerland and Italy - the roads were epic and the weather held for this exquisite boondoggle.
Our chief focus on this tour, which included the RS6 Avant and RS7, was the newcomer RS Q3 small crossover that will absolutely never be coming to North America, but which starts deliveries in November of this year. This no-North America policy is because we still don't have enough customers who see the thrill or sense in a $52,000 all-wheel-drive baby sport utility that gets to 60 miles per hour from a stop in under five seconds. Meanwhile, in crazy, drunken Europe, orders for this ridiculous, wondrous set of wheels have, to quote Quattro head of technical development Stephan Reil, "far outstripped the limited production numbers of the business case." Those silly Europeans, don't they know that an RS Q3 makes no sense at all? Sheesh.
