Very nice and well maintained Audi A6 Quattro with a very spirited 4.2 V-8.  There are four small body issues that I know of and have tried to highlight in the photos.  There is a small dimple in the hood which I believe was the result of a falling acorn.  Offending Oak Tree is visible in the photo.  There is a small ding in the passenger side rear door, a scrape in the upper part of the drivers side rear fender well and a small crack in the plastic towards the bottom of the front bumper on the driver's side.  Over-all the car is in very good condition with the leather seats in superb condition and the carpet is excellent. I live in New York City but  the vehicle is located in Des Moines, Iowa and was primarily  driven by my late sister who was not really able to drive much.  It has been garaged for several months and is a little dusty on the inside but I will have that taken care of before the sale.   I only travel back and forth several times a year and it does not make much sense to let it sit there.  I replaced the battery when I was there in October to insure that there would be no problems with it starting after a period of inactivity.  The tires were new at 79,000 miles there is a Sunroof and a Boze sound system.  I am the second owner and have owned it since 2005 I believe.  It is a little foggy to me right now.  a title search may show one additional owner, I am not sure but that was a nephew who took the delivery and signed for it and it was in his name temporarily until I arrived to change the title. There are also a couple of lights that I do not even know to which function they refer that are out in the center of the dash that are out.  I do not believe that they are anything critical as I had the vehicle serviced in September and no mention was made of them.  Please keep in mind that I will be traveling back at the time of the sale from New York just for this purpose so allow me a couple of days to work out the details.  I would also like to ask that if you are interested contact me before bidding with questions.  While I have driven the car, and it runs great I did not drive it often enough to completely remember all of the features that it has.  The last time that I was there I could not remember how to turn on the fan to the heater for the first few minutes that I was in the car.  The V8 engine in this Audi has a lot of power.  My sister picked this out and it was a lot more car than she ever needed as she was barely able to walk to it.  But for anyone who wants that extra something when accelerating you will certainly have it available to you.

AMS Alpha 10 Audi R8 First Drive [w/video]

Thu, Oct 1 2015

Horsepower is a relative number. Compared to the 1,500 hp in the last AMS car we drove, the face-melting Alpha 12 GT-R, 900 seems pretty tame. But by any rational standard that's a crazy amount of power, the kind that's hard to grasp in practical terms. When AMS Performance called us and offered a test in the 921-hp Alpha 10 Audi R8, saying yes was easy. Figuring out how to demonstrate that much thrust was the tricky part. Our solution was to head to the drag strip. What better way to show off the wicked alterations wrought by AMS president Martin Musial and his team than a video showing the car do the Star Trek warp speed effect through the quarter mile? AMS has a history of building quick drag strip cars, like the aforementioned GT-R and a series of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolutions. Vice president Arne Toman even owns the world's fastest Hearse. We should have taken the broken scoreboard at Milan Dragway as an omen. Wiped out by a lightning strike, both displays have since been replaced. Before our test both Musial and Toman explained that the Alpha 10 R8 wasn't built with drag racing in mind. But, being good sports, both met us at the track in southeast Michigan, unloaded the R8 from its trailer, and let us run through the timing lights over and over. The best time that day was 11.0 seconds at 136 mph, uncorrected. One of the many amazing things about the Alpha 10 Audi R8 is that it's essentially a bolt-on system. That's fast, but not what you'd expect for 786 horsepower at the wheels. And, honestly, we're not disappointed. First, a 4,200-rpm rev limiter was set too low to launch on the sticky drag strip. Put another way, that drag strip time is almost a street start. For what it's worth, Musial and Toman didn't seem concerned about the numbers. Like we said, they present the Alpha 10 as an all-around performance car, and we believe them. Now, if you go to AMS with the drag strip in mind, Musial and his staff can program whatever launch rpm you desire. (You're on your own for clutch replacements.) A reflash of the engine controller is part of the Alpha 10 package. Drop off a stock R8 V10 at AMS (or any of its 70-plus dealers), and they'll pull out the suitcase-shaped muffler that sits behind the engine. A pair of turbochargers, small mufflers, and two heat exchangers attach to the stock exhaust system mounts, while a giant water-to-air intercooler sits on top of the engine.

The 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona: What we learned, what we saw

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Two days after the flag dropped on the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, people are still trying to figure out what it might portend for the rest of the season. In 24 hours, two minutes and 24 seconds, 695 laps were completed by the car that crossed the line first. During that time, 67 cars began the race, 18 of them retired. There was that accident, and a red flag. There were supposedly slower classes beating supposedly faster classes. There were 16 caution periods, including that yellow flag. And then there was The Decision. And Then The Uproar. And then The Reversal.
There was also some pretty good racing, so let's have one last look at the weekend. Oh, and there was that 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO Series II...
If you want to skip the reading bits and go to the photos, there's a high-res gallery of 158 images above and a couple more below. Enjoy.

Audi S3 Cabriolet is a topless two-door temptress

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

Now that we've driven the Audi S3, we're pretty eager for it go on sale in the United States. And while we won't get the Sportback version, there's a teeny tiny chance that Audi may grace us with this new Cabriolet version that makes its debut at the Geneva Motor Show this week.
That certainly wouldn't be a shame, considering the topless S3 packs the same 290 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque as the sedan, all of which comes from a turbocharged, 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine. That folding roof mechanism adds a bit of weight to the S3 package, and thus, reaching that ever-so-special 62 miles per hour takes an extra half a second - 5.4 compared to 4.9 with the S3 sedan.
Looks-wise, we dig the aggressive little S3, though the chrome wheels of the show car are kind of throwing us off. Swap out a set of standard alloys, and we'll be good to go. Have a look in the gallery above to see the topless Audi for yourself.
