1998 Audi Cabriolet S2 Roadster Rs2 Coupe Rare Euro 1/1 Sport 5 Speed Stanced on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
1998 Audi Cabriolet Roadster one of a kind. Stanced with 17x10's around.
Last year of the Cabriolet in the USA till 2002 when they started
importing here again. Cabriolet is its own platform. Kinda between a B3
Coupe Quattro and B4. This one is Completely Customized. In Europe a lot
of people have customized these cars. You wont find anything like this
in the USA. Plates good till 10/2015. So much has been done to this car.
Its and ready to go!
Perfect Low Mile 1998 Audi Cabriolet with 63k miles. V6 2.8L. Runs like new. Everything has been done to this car was done right. Very Rare Brock Car Fashion Wheels were imported from Germany and are 17x10 all the way around! Car needs front tires as they are at the wear mark. Rear Tires are 60%. 245 rear/235 front. All 4 fenders were professionally rolled out to allow for these. Retaining plastic wheel well protectors.. New Paint at the same time complete. The convertibles all came with Automatic Transmissions in the USA and the cabriolet body style was used till 1998 here in the USA, but they sold til 2001 in europe in this body style. A lot of the S2 B3/B4 RS2/S2 B4 parts bolt on this car. A completely bullet proof B5 tall 5th gear manual transmission swap with all stock interior and mechanical parts was done with a 034 Short Shift kit installed. Shifting like a new car. This changes the entire drive of this car and gives a top end of 150mph. The 4 speed Automatics sucked and the gearing made them slugs. Now the car has some real power with the manual 5 speed! Plus I get almost 30mpg on the hwy! Shifts like a brand new car, clutch is perfect. Also used the Manual heater controls instead of the auto climate control crap which keeps the A/C on when in use. This has the button for A/C and it works perfect. Anyone who knows these years isnt fond of the auto climate control system and its problems.. All interior parts swapped except rear seat. VERY RARE Recaro sport seats, driver seat recovered. Interior is in perfect condition, soft and like new. Manual lever for front to back and manual spin handle for tilt with power button for height. Everything on this car works as it should except cruise control(typical Audi problem). Power windows, power top, mirrors, locks, factory alarm, remote key-less entry. mirrors are new(heated), European RS2 projector HID headlights with levelers. Front and Rear fog-lights. Completely badge-less. Complete and impossible to find S2 White Gauges, cluster, etc. Works perfectly. New OEM shift boot, knob, Audi Sport Steering Wheel. H&R suspension, Complete Cat back Magna-flow exhaust that sounds perfect. Dual Chrome tip as well. Euro RS2 front and rear bumpers. Blacked out S grill. Complete Paint done with a lot of the work done almost 4 years ago. Car has under 10k miles since then. Alpine Stereo with Alpine speakers thru out including door tweeters. I-pod hookup, usb, and auxiliary. Won 1st place at 2013 Pacific Waterland Car Show in Convertible Class and 2nd place in B4/B5 Class! Euro Plate on front is the prize given from that show. Car needs nothing but a new home with a garage!! Car has no problems, no dents, no issues, starts right up no matter how long it sits. Top is perfect. The back vinyl window is cloudy so that is the only thing i can think of that you can replace sometime to see better out of it. Original owners manuals, etc also come with the car. I also think that putting a 20VT would be something I was going to do someday and also maybe coilovers. Just food for thought. If someone was ambitious, take the quattro from a b4 90 quattro or B3 coupe quattro and make it a quattro 20VT S2 Cabriolet! KBB is 8K, but with what has been done I think my price is right. s120.photobucket.com/user/hoopster21/library/1998 Audi S2 Roadster |

BMW says SUVs killed the sports car market
Thu, 13 Nov 2014In many ways, we're living in a golden age of automotive performance. After all, it's possible to show up at a Dodge dealer, hand over about $60,000 and storm away with a 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat. Or for those who prefer a touch more luxury, the BMW M4, Mercedes-AMG C63 and latest Cadillac ATS-V offer between 425 and 503 horsepower, depending on your pick, with a bit more poshness. However, none of these powerful vehicles fit the classic definition of a two-place, droptop sports car, and according BMW head of sales Ian Robertson, that's because the segment is very much in the doldrums.
According to Robertson, two factors seriously wounded the classic sports car market. First, the global economic crisis of a few years ago put a serious hurt on sales, according to Bloomberg. Further worsening the situation, the boom in popularity of luxury SUVs and crossovers in the past few years hasn't allowed for much recovery. Even car-hungry China hasn't helped much because of the smog in many cities and preference among some of the very rich there to be chauffeured.
Combined, Audi TT, BMW Z4 and Mercedes-Benz SLK sales peaked around 114,000 units a year in 2007, but they are only expected to reach 72,000 annually by the end of the decade. Robertson is pretty pessimistic about the market's comeback too. "Post-2008, it just collapsed. I'm not so sure it'll ever fully recover," he said to Bloomberg.
Audi Canada surprises out-of-warranty owners in a good way
Wed, 24 Jul 2013One of the worst parts about going to a dealership is sitting around waiting for the courtesy shuttle to show up and transport a group of strangers to their places of work or homes. Well, Audi of Canada found a nice way to surprise customers who brought their out-of-warranty vehicles in for a scheduled Health Check by replacing dealer's normal shuttle with a 2014 Audi R8 V10.
The R8, painted to resemble a safety car or police car, gave the customers a ride home - even stopping at a coffee shop along the way. Needless to say, the stunt got plenty of attention from passers-by and was quite a hit with the Audi customers, too. Scroll down to watch video of the customers getting the ride of a lifetime, which we're sure left some of the in-warranty customers at least a little jealous as they drove off in dealer loaner cars.
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.
