He was just going to go down to San Jose while he was in the City to "look" at it LOL
Reppin the 4L v8 club

 

[CobraRed_96_GT]

Got it for 44.5K i believe

 

[CobraRed_96_GT]

it was between that and a 5 series BMW V8 and the 380hp jag that he'd buy a kit for and get it to 420

 

[BennyBlown2v]

Nice! I'm not exactly an A6 fan, but cool none the less!

 

[CobraRed_96_GT]

yeah neither am I, but im happy for him. He was in a C6 fase for awhile. I was crossing my fingers on that

 

[Ernad]

sweet

 

[Shiroelex]

Holy feces, batman! $2800 chip? That better have more gains than a blower!

 

[Gearbanger 101]

Nice, but you'd never catch me paying that kind of money for a used car, no matter how nice it is. I'm sure it's a real pleasure to drive though.

16k miles isnt even broken in yet. They guy who had it b4 trades in the new cars he buys every 6 mo.'s. The guy said he's done it four times, the tuner picks up the car and then they do their thing then give it to him 2 weeks later.

only good for about 28hp 21tq

 

[Shiroelex]

Why such an expensive chip then? I'm only tossing down 500 some for a Livewire, and it does more than a chip.

well, first of all my dad didn't buy it the guy before him did. Most of the new german cars get like 5hp from full exhaust, so about 30hp is pretty good.

 

[Shiroelex]

Ah, ok, that makes more sense. German cars are near perfect right out of the box.

 

[geoffsgt]

Good deal.

Would think all those mods would hurt the value.

 

[stangGT97]

I must say, those 20" wheels actually look good on the car... surprisingly. Nice find!

 

[NyDon]

your dad's a badass. good choice!

 

[DocG]

Never been much of an Audi fan, but that one looks pretty darn nice.....did someone puke all over the trim....or is that supposed to be wood?

For that chunk of change, I'd bought a Vette or M series Beemer though.

 

[Dope 97GT]

i woulda went M5 for sure...not really a fan of audi styling
