Hi, all-

Thanks much for taking a look at my auction. Available here is a 2003 Audi Allroad with 2.7 Turbo engine and 6-speed manual transmission. Most are automatics, so if you've been waiting for a manual car, this may be the one for you. As with most cars this age and miles, it's not without its flaws, but it is an overall very clean example of an Allroad and should give the next owner many more miles of enjoyment. I've owned the car for about 2 years, and the recent purchase of an electric car has this one sitting around. I'll give a brief description of my car here, and please feel free to ask any questions you have.

Mechanical: It runs very well, with just a couple of maintenance items to tend to. The air suspension works well, with 3 of the 4 bladders, all of the struts, and the compressor having been replaced in the last 2 years. The car will be sold with an uninstalled replacement right-front bladder. The current one lost pressure on the coldest days this past winter. It will also need rear brake pads, as the existing ones are near the end of their service life. I very recently had the water pump, timing belt, and a thermostat gasket serviced... which sounds like a simple thing, but it's really not. I replaced the tires with Pirelli P6 Allroad all season tires about a year ago, and they have less than 2,000 miles on them. In summary, I don't think you'll find very much to service.

Electrical: Nearly everything works perfectly. Occasionally the remote lock fails to unlock the car, but once unlocked with the physical key, it seems to work fine. I've replaced the turn signal switch, which is a common ailment for this vintage of Audi. I've also replaced the original foggy headlamps with clear aftermarket units, and all of their auto-leveling function is retained and functional. The rear lamps have been replaced with LED lamps. There is an iPod adapter installed, and I replaced with radio, which works properly. As with the mechanical system, there's very little to tend to.

Interior: The interior is clean, with a few defects. The soft-touch paint has worn from the air conditioning controls and window switches, which is common. The driver-side window switch pod is a bit loose. The wood is not cracked or hazed. The seat covers are not split and the seams are good. If not for the soft touch pieces, it would be in great shape.

Exterior/Body: It's quite clean for its age, but there is an issue with the paint. Some time in 2007, the previous own had a body repair done to the front of the vehicle by the dealership, and in attempting to match the color, they sprayed the front half the car. Over time the color has faded differently that the back half, and under certain lighting conditions, you can see the difference. I attempted to take the photos under conditions that it is obvious, and if you look closely, you can see it in the photos (difference in color where front and rear doors meet). I bought it this way because the rest of the car was clean and had a good service history, and given that the repair was performed at a dealership, you can find it on its Carfax report. Beyond this, there are a few various small door dings and light scratches on the body, the largest of which are on the hood (from highway debris) and the rear bumper. I've also noticed that the left-front door is sometime difficult to latch... it takes a certain effort... and so the car will include a replacement latch mechanism. This is a common issue. Lastly, I had the wheels refinished last year, but there's a scratch on one of them, and they do need to be detailed.

In summary, it's a nice car, and I wouldn't hesitate driving it anywhere. As mentioned above, please ask any questions you may have.

A bit of small print: The car is being offered locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if a local buyer purchases the vehicle. A $500 deposit is needed within 48 hours of the end of the auction, and the balance is due within 7 days. Bidders with less than 10 feedback should contact me before bidding, or I may cancel your bid. Bidding is open internationally, and the buyer is responsible for all transportation and its arrangement. It's desired to have the vehicle picked up within 2 weeks following the conclusion of the auction. If you require more time, I can arrange storage at a cost.

Thanks again for looking!

Audi TT Ultra Quattro Concept throws lightness at the problem

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

Audi is celebrating the 2013 Wörthersee Tour with a special concept version of the company's TT. The Audi TT Ultra Quattro concept tips the scales at just 2,449 pounds thanks to some extensive engineering work. The company pulled nearly 95 lbs from the car's body structure and used carbon-fiber reinforced plastics for many of its detachable body components. As a result, the concept weighs in at a full 220 pounds lighter than its production counterpart. Throw in a wicked turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 310 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, and you get a machine with the power to weight ratio in the supercar realm. 0-60 comes up in 4.2 seconds and top speed is listed at 173 mph.
Inside, the TT Ultra Quattro features plenty of carbon fiber trim, and designers also fitted the seats from the R8 GT to save a little weight. The buckets use CFRP for the seat frames, saving nearly 50 pounds in the process. In a world where automakers seem blind to the negative effect of throwing more heft at a vehicle, we're in love with the Ultra Quattro concept. Check out the full press release below for more information.

2016 Audi TT price increased to $42,900*

Wed, May 6 2015

Audi has announced pricing for the new third-generation TT and second-generation TTS, and both models have received a moderate bump. Simply getting into the family will demand $42,900, or $2,550 than the current coupe. If you fancy a topless TT, the price has jumped from $43,350 to $46,400, or $3,050 more than the last one. The performance-oriented TTS and its 292-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter, though, is easily the bargain of the range. At $51,900, it's $3,200 more than the current model. But where the normal TT only gets a nine-horsepower increase and stays even on torque output, the TTS has gone from just 265 hp to 292 ponies. Torque is up as well, from 258 pound-feet (the same as the normal model) to 280-lb-ft. Prices for the TTS Roadster, meanwhile, have not been announced. That said, considering the increases through the rest of the range, we'd expect the high-performance two-seater to come in at or around the $55,000 range. Considering our impressions during our first drive of the standard TT and the performance increase for the TTS, we must say, these price hikes don't seem exorbitant. Scroll down for the official pricing announcement from Audi. AUDI ANNOUNCES PRICING FOR THE ALL-NEW TT MODEL LINE The quintessential design icon boasts a new driver-focused interior and true sports-car performance TT sets standards for in-vehicle technology with the Audi virtual cockpit - a fully digital instrument cluster Virtual cockpit powered by first automotive NVIDIA® TegraÂ® 30 processor integration May 06, 2015 | HERNDON, Virginia -- Audi today announced pricing for the all-new 2016 Audi TT model line.

GRAND-AM, IMSA announce deal to bring DTM racing to US

Fri, 29 Mar 2013

It won't be until 2015 at the earliest, but the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), Grand-Am and the Internationale Tourenwagen-Rennen have agreed to a licensing and cooperation deal that could bring a version of Germany's DTM series to the US.
When the American Le Mans Series and Grand-Am are officially combined next year, the resulting body will be called United SportsCar Racing (USCR). IMSA will be the sanctioning body for that series, and DTM races could be run as support events. It was also suggested by an ALMS chief that DTM races could be standalone or join NASCAR and IndyCar weekends.
With the so-called DTM America finally agreed to, there is now a way for manufacturers to run the same DTM-type cars in Europe, the US and Japan - last year Japan's Super GT series agreed to adopt "the basic technical regulations" of DTM for the GT500 class, the top class in the series. That already puts six manufacturers in play: Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW that run in Germany's DTM and Honda, Nissan and Lexus that run in Super GT. The DTM oversight body has invited American brands to Germany for the opening round of the 2013 season, and will begin actively courting their participation in the US series. Check out the press release from Audi with comments on the deal below.
