Audi S4 Quattro 4.2l 380hp V8 2005 Cabriolet Convertible Rare Sprint Blue Pearl on 2040-cars
Harrisonburg, Virginia, United States
Shipping and payment: Cash or Cashier's Check. Buyer to arrange for pick-up/delivery. Vehicle located in Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, two hours from DC or Richmond; six hours from NYC.
History: Bought vehicle from a dealer in northern Virginia in September 2009, with 35K miles. One prior owner. Had it ever since (5+ years). Even though it is an AWD Quattro, it never has been out in snow or ice. One minor accident involving front passenger fender area. Repairs made. Always has been garage stored. Two things to know about the history: (1) History shows frame/unibody damage - prior to my purchase. In fact, the report of the damage was not made till five months after my purchase. Inspection I commissioned indicated that the damage was fully repaired - and, there have been no issues with this during my ownership. (2) History shows two odometer issues - on AutoCheck, not CarFax. One before I purchased vehicle and one recently. The first is clearly a clerical error - mileage was 34,549 in Aug 2009 and then reported at 39,549 in Sept 2009 - the 4 clearly was misread as a 9. Then, I purchased it at 35K and that made things look like a rollback. Since this would be a crime, AutoCheck should have pursued the matter with law enforcement authorities or confirmed the accuracy of the Sept 2009 report; it did neither. The car was on a lot and did not likely get driven exactly 5,000 miles in 30 days on a lot. Common sense.... The second shows mileage at 129K, but I have complete records from date of purchase through today that shows mileage. It's at 76,725 as of this afternoon and five more miles to get home. 76,730 right now in my garage. Someone entered mileage from another car, not this one. So, what all this means is that the history shows these situations and this has a severe impact on the value for trade with a dealer. But, these things do not affect the quality of this vehicle. The price reflects a deep discount (of $5,000+) due to all this. Features: Just about as fully equipped as this model could be in 2005. Premium Package. Condition: The vehicle body is in very good condition. The paint is still shines like new but there are a few areas where it's flaked. Some road chip mark in front. Minor paint issues. The interior is in excellent condition. Engine is in excellent shape. Exhaust system excellent. Pipes are excellent. Needs a new airbag sensor for passenger seat. $300. Price also reflects this expense. With that, you would have a car that still turns heads. Will send you photos if you're seriously interested. And, will answer any questions you have. Without the history issues and the airbag sensor replacement needed, this vehicle merits a pricing at $16,500 - $17,000. To make it attractive to someone who would love to enjoy this car, I am discounting it $6,000+ for the history issues and $500 for the airbag sensor replacement. The price is $10,500. Won't find one like it for that. |

2019 Volvo V60 vs. wagon competitors: How they compare on paper
Thu, Feb 22 2018The next-gen Volvo V60 was finally revealed this week. The outgoing model has been on sale since 2011, getting a few minor updates along the way. The new model is based off Volvo's Scalable Platform Architecture that underpins other models like the XC90 and XC60 crossovers and V90 wagon. The V60 will launch with two engines, with a powerful hybrid coming sometime down the line. Since the last V60 hit the market, Audi, Buick and BMW have all released their own flavor of wagon. Like Volvo, BMW sells a traditional sedan-based model. Audi and Buick's wagons are both high-riding models with some very slight off-road pretense, much like Volvo's Cross Country models. We don't have details on the upcoming V60 Cross Country, but, even when accounting for ground clearance, the V60, BMW 3 Series Sport Wagon, A4 Allroad and Buick Regal TourX have a lot of overlap. Check out the specs breakdown below. Discover and compare other wagons and crossovers with our Car Finder and Compare tools. Engines, transmissions and drivetrains Out of the four wagons, the new V60 is the only one that offers two-wheel drive and a hybrid variant. The base V60 T5 uses a 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four and sends power to the front wheels. Stepping up to the V60 T6 nets buyers an additional 66 horsepower thanks to a twincharged — supercharged and turbocharged — 2.0-liter and all-wheel drive. A T8 model that uses a 390-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain will be available soon. All V60s use an eight-speed automatic. The Audi, BMW and Buick are all powered by 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-fours. Additionally, the 3 Series has a 2.0-liter turbo diesel. All three wagons have standard all-wheel drive. The BMW and Buick use an eight-speed automatic, while the Audi sends power through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. As base engines go, there's a four-horsepower difference between the most and least powerful models, though the Buick wins out on torque. The V60 T6 matches the Regal TourX's torque figure and trounces every competitor's horsepower rating. The V60 T8 packs more power and torque than any of the competition. Cargo and interior space The outgoing V60 was on the small side for a wagon. This new model rectifies that a bit, though its 48.2 cubic-feet of cargo space with the second-row folded is still substantially smaller than the competition.
Audi design chief Egger leaving for Italdesign Giugiaro
Thu, 05 Dec 2013Wolfgang Egger, Audi's chief designer, is leaving the company according to a Automotive News Europe, which cites a report from Germany's Automobilwoche. Egger won't be going far, though, remaining within the Volkswagen family and taking up head design position Italdesign Giugiaro, a VW subsidiary as of 2010.
Egger took over the position at Audi from Walter de Silva, and has been responsible most recently for the Audi A6 and A3, as well as the 2010 Quattro Concept and the E-Tron Concept. He previously was head of design at Lancia and then at Alfa Romeo, where he was responsible for the achingly gorgeous 8C Competizione.
If Egger does move to Italdesign, his successor is likely to be Marc Lichte, the Volkswagen designer behind the current Golf. Of course, these personnel changes haven't been officially confirmed, and Audi is thus far refusing to comment on either Egger or Lichte's possible career shifts. We'll stay with this one, so sit tight.
Audi Prologue Concept [w/videos]
Tue, Dec 2 2014What you're looking at here is a preview of Audi's next-gen exterior and interior design. You can't tell, but in these photos, I'm wearing what can only be described as an ultra-white cloth spacesuit. Before opening the large driver's door of the Audi Prologue concept outside of the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills, Audi requested that I don a super-attractive onesie so as to not let my flannel-covered human flesh touch the untreated leather surfaces of the Prologue's interior. I tied the spacesuit around me just above the waist, let my Converse poke out the footholes, and promised to hold in any sneezes. After all, I was being granted a serious privilege. I was about to drive the multi-million dollar, only-one-in-the-world Prologue that had just stunned crowds at the Los Angeles Auto Show days earlier. This isn't the first time Audi has bravely let the media sample its conceptual wares. In 2010, the German automaker granted us access to its incredibly enticing Quattro concept, probably hoping that the media would rave about the thing enough to convince the higher powers to actually green-light and build it. (We're still waiting on that one, of course.) You could argue that this same logic was applied when allowing me to drive the Prologue – it's no secret that Audi has been dreaming of a range-topping A9, though company officials told me that there is currently no decision on whether or not to produce such a car. But that's not really what the Prologue is about. As its name suggests, what you're looking at here is a preview of Audi's next-generation exterior and interior design, in a fully baked, fully functional package. Suit up, and behold the future. While the Prologue won't necessarily spawn its own production model, its elements will be incorporated on the next A6, A7 and A8. "Timeless but progressive." That's the key takeaway of the Prologue's aesthetic, according to exterior designer Parys Cybulski. The focus here is on beautiful, yet modern, simplicity. A design that looks both contemporary and forward-thinking at the same time, and something that will still look up-to-date in several years' time. After all, while the Prologue won't necessarily spawn its own production model, its elements will be incorporated on the next A6, A7 and A8. Up front, the most prominent feature is, of course, Audi's single-frame grille, seen here with a larger breadth than anything else in the brand's lineup, though its closest resemblance is seen on the new TT.
