I'm getting a company car and am sadly parting ways with my beloved Audi A4 Avant.  Whoever buys this vehicle will be in for a winter driving treat - it handles incredibly well (better than our 4x4 SUV) on the few days we had snow and ice in Dallas last year, and has a five star crash safety rating from the NHTSA.  We comfortably fit a car seat, booster seat, and an 11 year old in the back seat of this wagon.  Yes, you can have a cool, fun to drive vehicle and have kids! (but don't worry, our kids aren't allowed to eat in the car and generally ride in my wife's SUV...) The rear seats fold down and there's enough room for a bike.  Anyone who is a car fanatic will know awesome wagons are!

I didn't spend five hours waxing it and applying ten coats of armor-all to it before taking the attached photos because I wanted you to see the car as it is.  It's a used car - so there are a few scuff marks on the front left rim, a small door ding on the drivers side rear door, and a rear bumper scratch from our garage door.  I think it's important for you to see this when you're buying a used car.  We took it to the dealer and to CarMax when we were trying to decide whether to trade, sell, or sell privately, and the professionals at those places felt these scratches and dings can easily be removed or touched up.

What I think really matters to a buyer is to know how much we loved and babied this car.  We kept it in a garage, used only premium fuel, and everyone knows that used cars from Texas are the best since we don't have salt on the road/rust issues.  It was certified on 3/2013 by Audi and has a Audi CPO warranty until 3/2016 or 100,000 miles.  I will pay the $150 to transfer it to the new buyer.  With the warranty, it's $85 per visit to the shop on everything the CPO warranty covers (you can find this on their website).  We've used only synthetic oil and it has been cared for by the Audi-care plan, including the most recent 45,000 mile oil change and tune-up.  The brake pads and tires are only 18 months old (they all have a discount tire road hazard warranty, discount tire can look them up based on serial-number if anything were to happen to the tires).  I can provide all the paperwork and records I kept for this car to its new owner.  The interior is clean, the seats are still like new.

Some of the greatest things about this car aside from the handling and driving experience:  it's a sport sedan with a turbo engine at heart with the cargo room of a small SUV.  The panoramic sunroof is great!  It has the Audi MMI system with navigation, satellite radio, bluetooth, iPhone connectivity, and a media hard drive that holds a lot of songs.  The system even plays DVDs on the nav screen (you have to be stopped and in park...).  I get ~24 MPG in the city and 32.7 MPG on the highway real world use.  The black interior and the silver trim are sharp - Audi definitely knows how to do interiors.  The exterior paint is cool - it's a bluish grey.  LED headlamps and xenons give it a sporty and aggressive look.  Yes, I love this car and having to part ways with it is tough, but I hope that whoever wins this auction will enjoy and love this vehicle as much as me.  Any questions - please feel free to ask.

2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced

Wed, Jul 6 2016

Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne – the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists – three in each category – on December 6.

Audi to spend $17 billion to fight BMW

Sat, 29 Dec 2012

It's no secret that VW Group, parent company to not only Volkswagen but also Audi, Bugatti, Bentley, Lamborghini, Porsche and Ducati brands sold in the US, is determined to become the world's largest automaker. Even more impressive is that VW is prepared to spend billions to make it happen.
With that comes word that VW Group will be spending $17 billion on its Audi brand over the next three years to push itself above rival BMW. The money will be invested in both vehicle development (including lightweight auto design and alternative powertrains) and facilities (including expansion in Hungary, China and new operations in Mexico). The luxury brand is focused on global manufacturing infrastructure.
Already Europe's best-selling luxury brand, Audi's objective is to overtake BMW by the end of the decade by selling more than two million cars per year (BMW is shooting for 1.54 million sales in 2013). If those objectives are met, VW Group should be on track to be the industry's volume leader by 2018.

Audi kicks off ad campaign tonight with stirring new spot

Mon, 13 May 2013

Following last week's entertaining and wildly popular Spock vs. Spock video, Audi has come back with a bevy of videos for its new advertising campaign that will begin airing tonight in primetime and on cable.
There are five ads altogether, but the longest one, a 60-second spot titled It Couldn't Be Done, is our favorite by far. Set to a reading of the poem of the same name by Edgar Albert Guest, the commercial chronicles the history of Auto Union Deutschland Ingolstadt from the days of its founder, August Horch, through its many decades of innovation, competition and creativity. Indeed, watching the commercial gave us chills similar to when we first heard the Ram brand's Farmer commercial that aired during this year's Super Bowl.
The other four commercials are shorter 15-second spots that focus on such familiar themes as the company's Quattro all-wheel-drive system, the safety of its vehicles, their style and the company's advances in LED lighting. While less impactful than the longer ad, we think they effectively sound the drum beat of Audi's preferred tag line: Truth in Engineering. Scroll down to watch all five new ads, starting with the 60-second It Couldn't Be Done.
