You are looking at a true survivor.  This is a great original condition two owner car that has always been in the same family.  A father to son situation.  The paint is not original, but is the original color and as you can tell by the pictures, it was done very well.  This was not a cheap respray.  There is no bondo on this car.  The car is very drivable and would make an excellent weekend or daily driver as is.  If you chose to make it a show car it would be an easy restoration.  The only known defects are as follows...

  •  The dash clock is not currently functional
  •  There are a few dings along the passenger side of the body (I did the best I could to show those in the pics)
  •  This is a factory AC car, but the system could use charging.  It's not blowing as cold as it should (but since it's February, it wasn't a priority at the moment)

I would consider this excellent considering it is a 42 year old vehicle!

This car started out as a CO car, but spent most of it's life as a Florida car.  The pictures pretty much tell the story.  My loss of storage space is your gain!  Someone is going to get an amazing deal on this car!!!

The car is also available locally through several other sources of media and I reserve the right to end the auction at any point.  If you are serious about it, I would highly suggest the buy it now, this car will get a lot of activity and if I get a good local offer it's gone, since I could use the space!

Terms:

A non refundable deposit will be due within 24 hours of the end of the auction through Paypal, unless you are local and paying in cash.  The remainder of the payment will need to be made either by cash in person if you are local or coming in to pick it up, or by check drawn on a bank where there is a reasonably local branch where I can cash the check and have cash in hand before it leaves my property or goes on a truck.  I have also used Escrow.com in the past and would be willing to consider that option and split the escrow fee (which is minimal)

Please serious inquiries only.  Please only bid if you have your funds available.  I am not willing to hold the car. 

If you need a ride from the airport to pick it up, I can probably help with that.  If you need to ship the car, I can refer you to some carriers that I've used successfully in the past.  Shipping would of course be at your expense, but I am willing to do everything possible to facillitate the delivery.

Please ask any questions prior to bidding.  If you want to make an offer, I'm always willing to listen to reasonable offers.  The worst I can say is no, so don't be shy.

Title is in hand.

Check my feedback, it's all good.  

Thanks for looking. Good luck and happy bidding!!!

Audi S4 drivers are the most accident-prone, insurance report says

Sun, Jun 25 2023

Culling data from more than 4.6 million automobile insurance applications, researchers at the Insurify insurance comparison marketplace picked a winner — or more to the point, a loser — in its determination of the car model with the most accidents so far in 2023: the Audi S4. Why does the sporty, luxury-class German sedan rank so high (or so low)? The organization found that S4 drivers, piloting a car with almost 350 horsepower, are among those who collect the most speeding tickets, and that they get into accidents at a rate 54 percent higher than the national average. If the S4 isnÂ’t a surprise with an at-fault accident rate of 11.7 percent, consider the “family friendly” brand that appears three times on the Insurity list: Subaru. It is represented by three models, including the turbocharged WRX and XV Crosstrek, and at the better-performing bottom of the list, the Subaru Impreza, with an accident rate of 10.3 percent.  In 2023, 7.6 percent of U.S. drivers were involved in at least one at-fault accident in the prior seven years. For drivers of cars on this list, the average at-fault accident rate was 10.5 percent, meaning these drivers are 1.4 times as likely to have an at-fault accident on record. According to its statement, the Insurity data science team explored key safety features, driver behavior, and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) evaluations to pinpoint possible reasons behind these carsÂ’ high accident rates. Following is the list, counting down to the models with most reported accidents: 10. Subaru Impreza (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.3 percent; MSRP base model): $19,795) 9. Kia Niro (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4 percent; MSRP base model): $26,590) 8. Chevrolet Silverado LD (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4%, MSRP base model): $34,500) 7. Subaru XV Crosstrek (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.5 percent, MSRP 6. Subaru WRX.(percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.7% MSRP base model): $29,605) 5. Toyota GR86 (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.8 percent MSRP base model): $29,900) 4. Hyundai Veloster N (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.9 percent; MSRP base model): $32,500) 3.

Chevy Trax engineer says GMC version possible

Mon, Dec 8 2014

The Buick Encore is doing so well and its platform-mate the Chevrolet Trax has such good reviewer vibes going for it already, that a GMC version hasn't been ruled out. During the recent press launch, Automotive News asked lead engineer Al Manzor if the Trax could wear a GMC-branded suit, to which Manzor replied, "I think that is certainly possible." That's a long way from telling us anything about the probability of a GMC version of the Trax, and a legion of questions would need to be answered before it could happen. How would a GMC version be priced to leave room for the $26,465 GMC Terrain but not eat into sales of the $20,995 Trax or the $24,035 Encore? Or would that matter? Could it primarily be considered to encourage a new faction of The Yukon Set at the compact end, GMC buyers being famously committed to the marque? And of course, would there be a Denali version? It'll probably be a long while before we have any kind of answers, but if you want to see it happen, the door to your campaign of persuasion is at least ajar.
