RECENTLY INSPECTED (TWICE!), FULLY SERVICED, IT NEEDS NOTHING BUT A NEW OWNER, AND LOOKS AND DRIVES LIKE NEW. RARE ALPACA BEIGE METALLIC OVER TAN LEATHER, AND ONLY 94,XXX MILES.

-- Here it is in all its glory --

PLEASE LET ME STOP YOU NOW IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN INEXPENSIVE ALLROAD. SOME OF THESE CARS HAVE BEEN NEGLECTED, NOT MAINTAINED, AND DO NOT FEEL RIGHT ANY MORE. OR EVEN WORSE, THEY ARE SOLD WITH NO PRIOR INSPECTION! THIS CAR WILL KILL ANY OTHER ALLROAD YOU’VE SEEN FOR COSMETICS, MECHANICALS, OPTIONS, AND FEEL ON THE ROAD. THIS CAR IS LOADED WITH OPTIONS; PREMIUM PACKAGE, COLD PACKAGE, CD CHANGER, NAVIGATION, 17” ALLOY DUAL-SPOKE WHEELS, SAT RADIO, AND MORE. IT JUST COMPLETED A FULL INSPECTION AND IS GOOD TO GO WITH TONS OF SERVICE DONE.

Here's the deal:

-- This is a 2005 Audi Allroad 4.2 V8 in alpaca with tan two-tone leather, and matching tan carpets. It has 94,xxx miles, looks like a million bucks, and drives like a million bucks too! This car has a clean carfax with no accidents. --

-- Exterior 9.5 out of 10 (I'm finicky) - Great overall condition paint, body, glass, and trim. Only a few minor touched-up scratches and other normal signs of use (some rub marks to center of rear plastic bumper cover for example). This Allroad looks great, with a deep shine to its glossy metallic paint. This car looks great even under fluorescent light in a garage! --

-- This Allroad 4.2 has all its original body panels. The lower body moldings are in great shape. Chrome, rubber, glass, trim is all very nice. No significant oxidation, no fade, wear, rust, etc. --

-- Look at the body panels.....they are laser straight. --

-- The tires are worn to about 20% tread remaining. But at the BIN price, I will install a new set of correct Pirelli P6 Allroad-specific 225/55/17 tires! Factory 17” alloy dual-spoke wheels are true with no bends. Some very minor marks to the wheels but overall they are in great cosmetic shape. This Allroad drives straight as an arrow at any speed you choose. --

-- Interior 9.5 out of 10 - The interior is also great. Overall including all seating and door leather, seat padding, dash, console, and carpets it’s in extremely nice original condition. No dash cracks, no carpet rips, no wear of any kind on the leather (driver’s bolster shows nearly zero wear). Everything looks and feels near-new. --

-- The door panels and wood trim are also in great shape, like the rest of the car. --

-- Even the hatch and spare are mint. --

-- This Allroad is fully loaded including premium package, cold weather package, navigation, 17” OEM alloys, xenon lights, sat radio, and more. Almost everything you could get on a 2005 Allroad. --

-- Electrical 10 out of 10 - All lights, switches, radio, windows, wipers, seat motors/memory, and power mirrors work perfectly. Power lock system, etc. all operating properly. The HVAC system is fast to respond, and perfect with hot heat and ice-cold A/C. --

--Mechanically 10 out of 10 - Engine starts, idles, runs, and revs to redline in every gear smooth and strong. Transmission is smooth yet aggressive, and downshifts eagerly. This Allroad runs at high speed with no vibrations or noises. There are no leaks. Fully inspected and serviced; drive without worry! This Allroad drives smooth, quiet, and tight like a new car. --

-- Engine is strong and VERY eager to run, transmission smooth and ready to drop down two gears at your command to rocket you past slower traffic. Brakes are solid and pedal feel is firm. Air suspension is tight like new with no leakdown, but floats on a cloud just like an Allroad is supposed to do. Steering nicely weighted with no play in the box. This car drives and handles like new. --

-- This Allroad has thousands and thousands of dollars in documented repair and maintenance at the Audi dealer. Recent service includes oil change, both front airsprings, rear brake pads and rotors, and more. With the tires done, floor mats, and everything else included that’s over $2000 in real value included at the BIN price!

-- This Allroad has its books, working remote key, and lots of service history. With only 94,xxx miles, it’s not even broken in yet! Full inspection by my mechanic AND an authorized Audi dealer is already complete. All you have to do is drive. --

-- If someone selects the buy-it-now option, I will provide the following: the new Pirelli tires mentioned above, new rear brakes mentioned above, both front airsprings done, and a full $200 detailing including engine bay, carpet shampoo, leather conditioning, orbital polishing, etc. I'll also include floor mats and ToughGuard paint protectant. This stuff is simply amazing for durability, as it will last up to five YEARS. Dealers charge up to $695 for this stuff! That’s over $2500 in value! --

-- Nits: A few minor touched-up scratches, some minor scuffs to center of rear bumper cover, and some fading to the center instrument cluster display (an easy $160 fix). THAT'S IT. NOTHING ELSE. And if I did not mention those items, it's unlikely anyone would even notice...I just want to be up front and honest. Truly amazing condition for 94K miles. –

-- I have good feedback, and sold many Audis, Acuras, and Benzes that the new owners are thrilled with. They and others have offered to act as references to verify that I am honest in my descriptions of the cars I sell, and you are welcome to contact them. --

Audi says new 48 volt micro-hybrid system improves fuel economy, paves way for electrification

Mon, Aug 25 2014

Most cars use a 12-volt system to power their electrical components. But, with more and more electric bits and bobs being added to new vehicles, a dozen volts is looking a bit weak these days. In fact, Audi says that standard 12-volt systems are being stretched "to their very limits." Enter 48 volts. If used in a car that gets 40 mpg, that would translate to around 43.5 mpg. Audi is testing a supplemental 48-volt electric system in two prototype vehicles – modified mild-hybrid versions of the A6 TDI and the RS 5 TDI – in order to add in more electric technology (an electric compressor, for example, to improve acceleration) and "convenience systems for dynamic chassis control." Audi says it has more applications in the pipeline, but the overall gist is that the German automaker sees 48 volts as an "important building block in electrification strategy." As you can see in the picture above (click to enlarge), the RS 5 TDI concept uses a li-ion battery installed in the back of the car and an alternator to provide 48 volts when the engine is off. Audi says that the 48-volt system can save up to 0.4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. To put that into US numbers, if used in a car that gets 40 miles per gallon today, that would translate into a bump up to around 43.5 mpg. The Advanced Lead Acid Battery Consortium (ALABC) is also working on a 48-volt system to improve fuel economy and we've got a deep dive of Audi's electric turbocharger here. Even more powerful and efficient – the new 48-volt technology from Audi Important building block in electrification strategy More voltage and more power for new technologies Scalable platform concept suitable for wide-ranging uses Ingolstadt, August 25, 2014 – Audi is to upgrade part of its vehicle electrical system from twelve to 48 volts. The move represents another technical building block for facilitating the integration of new automotive technologies while increasing the power and efficiency of its cars. "We are using the full bandwidth of electrification in our drive principles strategy. Running part of the vehicle electrical system at 48 volts plays a central role in this," commented Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Member of the Board of Management for Technical Development at Audi. "It enables us to make more energy available.

Mixed sales results, but automaker stocks rise on need for cars in Houston

Fri, Sep 1 2017

DETROIT — The Big Three Detroit automakers on Friday reported better-than-expected August sales and issued optimistic outlooks for demand as residents of the Houston area replace flood-damaged cars and trucks after Hurricane Harvey, sending their stocks higher. General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler posted mixed August U.S. sales, with GM up 7.5 percent and Ford and Fiat Chrysler down. Japanese automaker Toyota improved sales by nearly 7 percent, while Honda fell 2.4 percent. Still, analysts focused on the potential for Detroit automakers to cut inventories and stabilize used vehicle prices as residents of Houston, the fourth largest city in the United States, are forced to replace tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of vehicles after the devastation from Hurricane Harvey. Mark LaNeve, Ford's U.S. sales chief, told analysts on Friday that following Hurricane Katrina in 2005 "we saw a very dramatic snapback" in demand. That said, Ford sales fell 2.1 percent in August. It sold 209,897 vehicles in the United States, compared with 214,482 a year earlier. Sales were down 1.9 percent in the Ford division and off 5.8 percent at Lincoln. Demand was down for cars, crossovers and SUVs. It was not clear how many vehicles in the Houston area will be scrapped, LaNeve said, saying he had seen estimates ranging from 200,000 to 400,000 to 1 million. Ford's Houston dealers may have lost fewer than 5,000 vehicles in inventory, he said. Ford is the No. 1 automaker in the Houston market, with 18 percent share, according to IHS Markit. The company plans to ship used vehicles to Houston dealers and has "every indication we would have to add some production" of new vehicles to meet demand, LaNeve said. Investor concerns about inventories of unsold vehicles and falling used car prices have weighed on Detroit automakers' shares most of this year. Now, automakers can anticipate a jolt of demand from a big market that is a stronghold for Detroit brand trucks and SUVs. "It's got to be a positive for the industry," LaNeve said. Investors appeared to agree. GM shares rose as much as 3.3 percent to their highest since early March. Ford increased 2.8 percent at $11.34, and Fiat Chrysler's U.S.-traded shares were up 5.2 percent $15.91, hitting their highest in more than five years. GM reported a 7.5 percent increase in U.S. auto sales in August, helped by robust sales of crossovers across its four brands.

2016 Audi A3 Sportback headed to US under diesel power [w/video]

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

Every get the feeling that automakers aren't really listening to what it is that you want in an automobile? Well, Audi is. Following what it calls "an outpouring of enthusiasts' support," the German automaker has announced that it is bringing the new, 2016 A3 Sportback to the US under diesel power, in the summer of 2015.
Unveiled today at the New York Auto Show, the new A3 TDI Sportback joins an expanding range of A3 models available Stateside. Whereas the Sportback hatch was until now only slated to be offered in E-Tron hybrid form, and the TDI only as a sedan, this model combines the bodystyle of the former with the power of the latter. The new TDI slots into the family alongside the gasoline-powered A3 and S3 sedans and A3 Cabriolet as well.
Power comes from a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four with 150 horsepower and mated to a six-speed S tronic transmission. Because it's still a year away from launch, Audi tells us it hasn't determined figures for performance, fuel economy or carbon emissions numbers, but when it joins the company's considerable diesel offerings (which already include the A6, A7, A8, Q5 and Q7) as part of the new A3 rollout over the course of the next 18 months, you can bet it'll provide that combination of low-end grunt and long-range capability that diesel enthusiasts crave. In the meantime you can scope out the details and b-roll footage below for a closer look.
