The time has come for me to part with my D3 A8. 2006 A8 Sport (SWB/ non-L). 123,XXX miles (not being driven much, but I can't say that it won't be driven a bit more since this has been posted). This has truly been a fantastic car while I've owned it. Full maintenance history since new. I am the second owner. Car needs nothing.
Heated and ventilated front seats with adjustable lumbar and thigh support and massage function Heated rear seats 2014 Nav database Ski sack Recent maintenance/ improvements: Professionally tinted windows Transmission "hoot" TSB/ fluid flush to "blue" LifeGuard 6+ fluid done at 50k Timing belt service (timing belt/ rollers/ water pump/ coolant flush) done at 90k Transmission flush to "green" LifeGuard 8 fluid at 100k Front/ Center/ Rear diffs flushed at 100k MMI assembly overhauled at 100k New inner and outer tie rods at 116k New upper control arms (complete arm with ball joint) and PowerFlex urethane bushings (pressed into new arms) at 116k Brakes all around (EBC "Red Stuff" pads and OEM rotors)/ painted calipers black with S8 retaining clips/ brake fluid flush to Ate Super Blue (gold) at 116k Alignment at 116k Power steering fluid flush at 120k Brand new D4 A7/ A8 Sport 20" wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport AS/3 tires less than 1000 miles ago (not a mark on them) 6 disc CD changer and Audi Music Interface (AMI) installed in glovebox Front bumper has been repainted (valet scraped it on a curb) and front reflectors were painted over Car has been tastefully and modestly lowered via software (VCDS procedure) Window trim has been professionally wrapped in matte black vinyl, however, the "C" pillars will need to be re-done. Don will warranty this for anyone on the coast of CA, otherwise any good vinyl shop can repair this, or you can simply remove the whole thing and have the factory chrome. Entire car has been wet sanded (2500) and polished Car really is in fantastic shape, and I get asked on a regular basis (from people who don't know Audi's) "is that a 2013? How do you like it?" Notes: Slight rock chipping around front of car (much less than you'd expect on a car at this mileage) Front bumper has very minor damage at the edge where it meets the front fender on the driver side (looks like it's from a pry tool)- guessing this was caused when they pulled the bumper for the timing belt service (see pic below). Rear bumper has very slight scratches at the radius on the driver ride where someone backed into the car in a parking lot. 95% buffed out, but it's just barely noticeable now (see pic below). Light scratch on front fender on passenger side, just behind the bumper. Was there when I bought the car, and I didn't want to do any paintwork to get it out. Original windshield, and ideally it's probably time for new glass (slight pitting/ chips) Interior is in fantastic condition. Leather shows very minimal wear. Wood looks nearly new most places. Suede headliner is flawless. |

Audi S3 with manual transmission still on table for US
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The fine folks at Fourtitude recently sat down with Audi of America President Scott Keogh, and among other things, learned that the potent little S3 sedan could be offered with a manual transmission in the United States someday. That sort of sounds like the usual company line to us, but Keogh reportedly said the company is "looking very closely" at adding the manual to the S3, which currently is only available with a dual-clutch automatic.
Fourtitude also brought up the possibility of a hotter RS3 - a vehicle we've seen testing before, as a hatchback. We don't doubt that this more potent compact is already a done deal, but Keogh reportedly mentioned that the sedan will get this treatment. An RS3 for the US? Sign us up, for sure.
Head over to the Audi enthusiast site to read more from their talk with the company's US boss.
2015 Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron
Wed, 18 Dec 2013A little more than a year ago, I drove an Audi A3 E-Tron prototype - an early concept electric vehicle built on the outgoing second-generation A3 platform. While I was impressed with the technology, its 3,800-pound weight, 10-second 0-60 time and 90-mile range will likely put it only mid-pack, at best, among its future competitive set. But Audi promised bigger and better things would come.
I didn't have to wait long. Immediately following the Los Angeles Auto Show, Audi asked me come drive its all-new successor built on the company's third-generation A3 chassis. Compared to last year's model, the new plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) boasts a lighter curb weight, quicker acceleration and six times the range. Calling it improved is an understatement. Best of all, it's heading to production.
Technically speaking, the 2015 Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron is a parallel hybrid, meaning its electric motor is sandwiched between a combustion engine and an automatic transmission - either, or both, is capable of powering the front wheels. The gasoline-powered engine is a direct-injected and turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder, rated at 150 horsepower. The transmission is a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox. A 75-kW electric motor sits between the two. Water is used to cool the gasoline engine, the electric motor and the battery pack - there are three independent closed loops.
A few pre-race notes and a lot of photos from the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sat, 14 Jun 2014The 82nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is on.
Audi has won 12 of the last 15 events, the scion of Auto Union is trying to make it 13 this year. To do so, it will have to overcome a situation faced only three other times during its dominance of La Sarthe: underdog status. Toyota has won the first two races of the year and claimed pole for this race, the rumor being that this year it's Toyota's race to lose.
And then there's Porsche. It's been 16 years since the Stuttgart brand raced on the top rung at Le Mans, three years years since it announced its return, just a year since it acquired Mark Webber in a signing that wasn't subtle and a few months since we got eyes on the 919 Hybrid.
