B7 Audi S4 Low Miles 6 Speed Manual Ivory Leather Nav Very Rare 2006 Prestige Pk on 2040-cars
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
|
RARE, LOW MILEAGE 2005.5 (B7 platform) AUDI S4 Prestige Package in Brilliant Red Exterior and stunning silver leather interior with hard to find factory carbon fiber trim. I am the third owner of this beautiful vehicle. The Audi recently passed PA emissions and inspection. I planed on trading it in on our the new vehicle for our family, but I feel based on the service history, low mileage, condition, color combo rarity, and care put into this vehicle the dealerships offer was unacceptable and I could do better selling it outright. The interior is 99% perfect. Look at the driver’s seat for instance, there is not even a single love handle mark in the leather. There is not a single wear mark on any buttons surface and all electrical functions work. Many of you may ask, is this car really that hard to locate? Well, search Autotrader using this criteria: 2005.5 to 2008, 6-speed manual, under 75,000 miles, with navigation. There are less than 12 for sale total in the U.S.! Of the 12 or so listed not one is asking under $20k. Now if you want red, coupe, premium package…this is the only one. That being said, within the last 3,000 miles the following items have been serviced:
Aftermarket items include (all completed within the last 10k, costing around $7000 total in parts alone)
Feel free to contact me for a phone number. I AM NOT DEALER, and tire kickers are not appreciated. NO TRADES, again, only selling to do a little better than the dealer trade in offer. No hurry to sell, so lowballers please look elsewhere. Clear title. All receipts for work included. No pets, no smoking, no odors, garage kept. Overall, a exceptionally clean car. I reserve the right to end the auction early or sell locally, so if interested, please make me a (reasonable) offer. If you want a PPI, that’s fine. I will be happy to take the car to the local ASE mechanic who has previously inspected the car to verify its excellent condition. Also, in full disclosure the dealership we were going to trade it in too found that the first owner of this vehicle was in a very low speed parking lot fender bender and the rear bumper was replaced. According to the insurance report it was a very minor collision and the air bags did not deploy and no mechanical or frame/structural items required repair, only cosmetic (i.e. new plastic bumper). Audi did an excellent job replacing the bumper w/a oem one and obviously it never created any issues for the second or third owner (us). We didn’t even know the damage occurred since the auto check report didn’t show the cosmetic repair when we bought the car. Again, a very clean car inside and out. One other note, the pictured 19” wheels are now sold. The car will include the chrome avant wheels. I am open to offers, but will not entertain hagglers or unreasonable requests. If you think this is not the car for you, or an unfair offering, then please and respectably by all means look elsewhere. THANK YOU!!!! |

2016 Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron First Drive
Wed, Nov 4 2015While its parent company is still in the throes of an emissions scandal that has thrust the "green" credentials of automakers worldwide under the microscope, Audi is launching its first plug-in hybrid in the US. Audi is ready to double down on its electrified future, putting up its own reputation as collateral. This A3 Sportback E-Tron – a vehicle we've sampled in prototype form – is a tech-savvy plug-in car that could be the perfect vehicle to mark the brand's new commitment to an electric lifestyle. Straightaway, Audi USA President Scott Keogh addressed the TDI situation. He says he and the rest of the company are "shocked, followed by appalled, followed by anger, and now in the phase of drop-dead determination to make this thing right." Out of the 500,000 affected 2.0-liter TDI engines around the world, 14,000 are in Audis: about 3,000 A3 TDI sedans and about 11,000 A3 TDI Sportbacks. "It's quite simple. CARB and the EPA have told us these cars can stay on the road, they will stay on the road until we have a fix, and when we have a fix, we will absolutely fix these cars." The most important thing going forward, Keogh says, is regaining the trust of both the dealers and customers. Audi has been enjoying a bit of momentum in recent years, building a reputation for itself along the way. Audi came on the scene in the US in 1969, but it took until 2010 for the company to sell 100,000 units in a single year. Now, "In 2015, we're starting to look down the barrel of nearly doubling our sales in five years," says Keogh. The A3 achieves a 40-percent segment share, and for 75 percent of those buyers, it is their first purchase of a luxury brand. But as its own pace increases, the momentum of the industry as a whole has pulled Audi toward this foray into electromobility. Enter the A3 Sportback E-Tron. There's a little extra weight from the battery pack, but the suspension does a good job of keeping it unnoticeable while driving. The A3 E-Tron has several strengths working in its favor. First of all, as Keogh puts it, the hatchback is a "real, proper Audi – a real, proper, fully rounded driving machine." Qualifications such as "this is an electric car" don't matter. "People just want to buy a car," he says. It has the technology, build quality, and drivability of an Audi.
VW may move production because of Russia's cutoff of natural gas
Sun, Sep 25 2022Volkswagen AG is exploring ways to counter a shortage in natural gas, including shifting production around its network of global facilities, signaling how the energy crisis unleashed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens to upend EuropeÂ’s industrial landscape. Volkswagen, EuropeÂ’s biggest carmaker, said Thursday that reallocating some of its production was one of the options available in the medium term if gas shortages last much beyond this winter. The company has major factories in Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which are among European countries most reliant on Russian gas, as well as facilities in southern Europe that source energy from elsewhere. “As mid-term alternatives, we are focusing on greater localization, relocation of manufacturing capacity, or technical alternatives, similar to what is already common practice in the context of challenges related to semiconductor shortages and other recent supply chain disruptions,” Geng Wu, VolkswagenÂ’s head of purchasing, said in a statement. RussiaÂ’s decision to throttle gas supplies to Europe has raised concerns that Germany might be forced to ration its fuel. Recent news that gas storage levels hit 90% ahead of schedule has soothed fears of acute shortages this winter, but Germany faces a challenge in replenishing depleted reserves next summer without contributions from Russia. Southwestern Europe or coastal zones of northern Europe, both of which have better access to seaborne liquefied natural gas cargoes, could be the beneficiaries of any production shift, a Volkswagen spokesman said by phone. The Volkswagen group already operates car factories in Portugal, Spain and Belgium, countries that host LNG terminals. Labor hurdles To be sure, any major production shift away from EuropeÂ’s biggest economy would face significant hurdles. VW has some 295,000 employees in Germany and worker representatives account for around half the companyÂ’s 20-member supervisory board. Any shift in production would likely involve a limited number of vehicles rather than wholesale factory shutdowns. While gas supplies for VWÂ’s plants are currently secured, the company has identified potential savings at its European sites to cut gas consumption by a “mid-double-digit percentage,” said Michael Heinemann, managing director of VWÂ’s power-plant unit. Still, the carmaker said it was concerned about the effect high gas prices could have on its suppliers.
Electric 1960 Auto Union 1000S has vintage looks, modern power
Tue, Apr 5 2016If you want to buy a classic car but somehow feel a twinge of guilt about the old engine polluting too much, then it's worth taking a look at this 1960 Auto Union 1000S on eBay Motors. The owner removed the original three-cylinder, two-stroke and installed a fully electric powertrain. In place of the internal combustion engine, there's an Azure Dynamics three-phase AC24 motor to spin the front wheels, and it even has regenerative braking. Lithium-ion batteries replace the rear seat and extend into the trunk to supply 21.5 kWh of energy storage. The seller claims the Auto Union weighs 2,400 pounds, so the powertrain might be rather lively in such a light car. From the outside, this Auto Union is immaculate. The owner's body-off restoration includes powder coating the chassis and suspension and repainting the exterior in Ascot Grey with the white roof. The color scheme looks perfect on cars of this era. The interior now has a digital instrument cluster in the center of the dash. We could see this change upsetting some purists because of the clash between original and modern. However, the reupholstered fabric seats look amazing. The owner has covered 15,000 miles since the restoration, so any powertrain bugs have been worked out in that time. As of this writing, the bidding is at $15,100 with 28 bids and the reserve is not yet met. The auction ends Sunday, April 10. While the seller provides great photos with the sale, you can see the EV in motion below in a video Audi created about it in 2014.
