Audi S4 Quattro 4.2l 380hp V8 2005 Cabriolet Convertible Rare Sprint Blue Pearl on 2040-cars
Harrisonburg, Virginia, United States
It is rare anywhere in the country to see the Audi S4 Convertible featuring Audi's Sprint Blue Pearl exterior to accompany a Black top and Black leather interior with Silver piping. This 2005 model is presented for sale by its 2nd owner after five years of roof-down summer driving on the beautiful roads of Virginia. While the all-wheel drive Quattro offers a chance to take the S4 out in less than ideal weather condition, this vehicle was garage stored and limited to ideal weather conditions, averaging about 8,400 miles per year for me and under 8,000 miles per year for its lifetime.
Overview. This S4 is powered by Audi's powerful 4.2L 380HP dial overhead camshaft, sequential electronic fuel injection V8 engine with two-stage variable valve timing technology. It features a 6-speed TipTronic automatic transmissions with paddles, dynamic shift programming (DSP), and hill detection capability. The Audi Quattro permanent all-wheel drive system features Torsen torque-sensing center differential and Electronic Differential Locks. It rides on 18" x 8" 6-spoke forged alloy wheels. In the trunk, below the storage area, is a full-size spare tire on a matching wheel. The vehicle has a Servotronic close ratio power rack & pinion steering. While its exterior appearance and interior features are outstanding, they are matched by Audi's array of safety features, including the Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP) that provides brake assist power four-wheel antilock ventilated disc brakes with electronic brake pressure distribution, drive and front passenger frontal restraint airbags, driver and front passenger seat-mounted side impact airbags, and 3-point seat belts with automatic pretensioners and front seatbelt force limiters. The black soft top retracts via a fully automatic power system linked to the windows and AC/heat system upon opening and closing. The rear window is glass and is heated. The xenon headlamps are housed within aerodynamic 2-way elipsoid projectors that include variable focus reflectors and integrated low/high beam tubes. The headlamps feature automatic self-leveling adjustments and retractable headlight washers. There also is an autoblink feature. Dual fog lights are in the front and a single fog light is in the rear. The power side mirrors are heated and aluminum-coated, with RH Convex. They feature and auto angling system when the vehicle is in reverse. The four-position intermittent windshield wipers include heated washer nozzles. More about the Interior - The leather 12-way power sport front bucket seats include 4-way power lumbar support and electronically adjustable headrests. The seat positions are lockable. The front center armrest is leather. It is foldable and height adjustable; it contains two cup holders. In the rear, the center armrest is leather and folds down. It also contains two cup holders as well as space for a first aid kit (which may also be stored in a side compartment in the trunk). Through the center armrest in the rest, a fully contained holder for skis is accessible. The sport steering wheel is leather wrapped and include the TipTronic paddle controls as well as other functional controls. The shift knob and hand brake level also are leather wrapped. Throughout the interior, this Audi S4 features genuine wood inlays - in the dashboard, center console, door panels, and rear seating area. More about the dashboard console - The instrument panel is backlit in red/white illumination with an automatic brightness control. A full set of exterior, interior, and engine photos will be added shortly to accompany the listing. The fuel tank holds 16.6 gallons. During the five years I have owned the vehicle, I continue to experience highway mileage rates of 24-26 mpg and city mileage rates of 16-18 mpg. The vehicle is smoke-free. We added Audi's premium floor mats for front and back. |

11M VW diesels affected, Porsche and Audi under investigation
Tue, Sep 22 2015Volkswagen's diesel scandal is growing exponentially larger. In a new statement, the company admits that 11 million vehicles worldwide might be equipped with software capable of evading emissions testing. In addition, the Environmental Protection Agency is beginning an investigation into the 3.0-liter V6 in Audi models and the Porsche Cayenne in the US, according to The Detroit News. The automaker claims that from its investigation so far, the "relevant engine management software is also installed in other Volkswagen Group vehicles with diesel engines." However, the company finds that the "noticeable deviation" in test results and real-world numbers only relates to the Type EA 189 powerplant. That still leaves 11 million vehicles potentially skirting emissions rules, though. Governments around the world have started taking a closer look into the company, too. In the US, the EPA has begun testing VW's V6 diesel because "they were certified well before we knew what we know now," Christopher Grundler, director of the EPA's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, said to The Detroit News. The agency has started checking diesels from other automakers to make sure they're meeting the rules, as well. Germany, the European Union, and South Korea have instituted similar investigations. In response, VW is setting aside 6.5 billion euros ($7.25 billion at current rates) to cover servicing all of these diesels. The company admits that the figure might have to be adjusted depending on what happens next. The money is being deducted from its third-quarter earnings.

New vehicles from the Volkswagen Group with EU 6 diesel engines currently available in the European Union comply with legal requirements and environmental standards. The software in question does not affect handling, consumption or emissions. This gives clarity to customers and dealers. Further internal investigations conducted to date have established that the relevant engine management software is also installed in other Volkswagen Group vehicles with diesel engines. For the majority of these engines the software does not have any effect. Discrepancies relate to vehicles with Type EA 189 engines, involving some eleven million vehicles worldwide.

Audi will show all-electric 'sporty SUV' in Frankfurt
Wed, Aug 19 2015Audi is launching a fully electric crossover in 2018, and the brand is finally giving the world a look at what to expect with the E-Tron Quattro concept at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show. Previewed ahead of the event in these five sketches, the vehicle packs a heap of cutting-edge tech, including beautiful matrix laser OLED headlights, to be as efficient as possible. Audi maintains that it offers a range of over 311 miles, too. For such a green model, the design is surprisingly aggressive with a upright grille in front and angular panels elsewhere. The rear sketch shows the design tapering at the back to improve aerodynamics, though. Active aero parts at the front, sides, and rear further let the E-Tron Quattro concept slice through the air. When combined with a flat underbody, the drag coefficient is claimed to be a segment-best 0.25 cd. Audi also asserts the length is between a Q5 and Q7, which lends credence to speculation that the production version might be called the Q6. Underneath the muscular design is Audi's MLB 2 platform from the latest Q7. Three electric motors provide the all-wheel drive propulsion: one at the front and two on the rear axle. Located underneath the passenger compartment is a lithium-ion battery that uses cells from LG Chem and Samsung SDI. The interior seats four, and the driver is nestled into a wrap-around cockpit with a high center console. The front displays use OLEDs with gesture controls, and the rear passengers also get their own infotainment systems.

The brand is demonstrating this with the Audi e-tron quattro concept at the International Motor Show (IAA) 2015 in Frankfurt. The sporty SUV provides an outlook on the brand 's first large-series electric car. The Audi e-tron quattro concept is designed from the ground up as an electric car and proves to be pioneering in its segment at the very first glance. It follows the Audi "Aerosthetics" concept, combining technical measures for reducing aerodynamic drag with creative design solutions. Movable aerodynamic elements at the front, on the sides and at the rear improve the air flow around the car.
