2000 Audi A4 Quattro Avant Wagon 4-door 1.8l on 2040-cars
Fairfax, California, United States
This is a tuner car that I have been having fun with since about 2005. Over the years I consistently searched out and purchased quality parts and components and had most of them professionally installed by 034 Motorsports, or Kovacs Motors (San Rafael, CA). Used as a back up commuter car for most of its life. Never tracked unfortunately, but pretty much ready for some 1/4 mile blasts or a nice day any any good road course. It has a significant amount of tasteful modifications and might just be what you are looking for. Wife says I have to sell this and one of my bikes, see my other auctions if you like turbo motorcycles. This vehicle is a "big turbo car". If you have never driven a "big turbo car" it is good to know that they ultimately sacrifice low end torque for top end horsepower. This car is no exception. It does have to spool the turbo, but at 22PSI on California 91 Octane pump gas, everything over 4500 RPM is exciting. Freeway onramps are very fun... Performance Enhancements: ENGINE:

The Good: This car is very clean with lots of professionally installed upgrades. Given that it is running a remapped Stock ECU, any problem that might occur would easily diagnosed as if the vehicle was stock. It is very clean cosmetically and only has some small areas where wear and tear were inevitable. The car dynoed on California pump gas at 265 AWDHP which is well over 300HP at the crank. There are Wideband 02 and EGT sensors installed. Adjustable digital boost controller in glovebox. Tinted windows. Full on sleeper. The Not So Good:
The Bad: (NOTE: CALIFORNIA BUYERS PAY ATTENTION) In April of 2013 I took the car to get smogged in my home region of Northern California. Given the extensive mods the car was flagged as a "gross polluter" given that it did not have the "secondary air pump" installed. This is true. Smog laws and testing are getting more strict in CA and they finally caught up with this vehicle. I have all the required parts and can ship with the car. I can not guarantee that this car can be easily somgged in CA given that it officially failed a visual smog inspection. It never had problems passing any of the sniff tests, but with missing parts, it did not pass the visual inspection. Extra Parts:

2014 Audi SQ5 ditches diesel, still packs a punch
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Over in Europe-land, the Audi SQ5 is a diesel-powered monster capable of sending a whopping 479 pound-feet of torque to its wheels. Naturally, this beast isn't coming to the States, but that doesn't mean we're missing out on the whole SQ5 experience altogether. At the Detroit Auto Show this week, Audi is debuting a new gasoline-powered version of the hot crossover, and while it's not quite the oil-burning dreamboat we've lusted after from afar, we certainly wouldn't kick it out of bed.
Instead of a diesel, we get a boosted version of Audi's supercharged 3.0-liter V6, good for 354 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque. Running through an eight-speed automatic transmission, the SQ5 will reportedly be able to fire off 0-60 times in the low-five-second range and will top out at an electronically limited 155 miles per hour. Suspension upgrades are on hand to improve road-going prowess, but also lower the Q5's stance a bit, too.
Because this is an S model, there are plenty of visual upgrades on hand, including a more aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and some pretty new colors including Estoril Blue and Panther Black. Interior upgrades like Alcantara trim and aluminum brightwork add to some sportiness from the cockpit view, as well.
2014 Audi A7 TDI
Fri, 04 Apr 2014If you're a frequent reader of car reviews (my money says you are), you've no doubt come across prose about how a car "checks all the right boxes." It's a common phrase - I'm guilty of using it myself. And I'm about to use it again.
You see, I've just spent a week with the 2014 Audi A7 TDI, shown here against the backdrop of sunny SoCal, even though my stint was spent slopping through this absolutely wonderful winter we've been having in Detroit. If you're one of our podcast listeners, you've already heard me wax poetic about the A7 TDI, and the more I reflect on this diesel darling, the more I firmly believe that this car absolutely, without a doubt, checks all the right boxes.
Well, almost all of them, anyway.
