2005 Audi A4 Cabriolet Convertible 90k Automatic 2.0 No Reserve Nr on 2040-cars

Miami, Florida, United States

You are bidding on a no reserve auction for a 2005 Audi A4 Convertible.  This car is gray exterior with a gray leather interior.  This is a no reserve auction which means the high bidder gets it even if it is only $1!  I have had the car since 2010 and I think I was the 3rd owner. This car was garaged the whole time I had it. This car has been my daily driver, but I really don't drive much and have only put 7K miles a year on it since I bought it.  In 2011 at 72,000 miles I had the oil sludge problem that is common to this model and had to replace the engine with a used one that had about 20,000 miles less than the one in the car so the mileage on the new engine is actually less than the mileage on the car.  I believe in full disclosure and try to disclose every defect when I sell my cars so the buyer knows exactly what they are bidding on.  This is the 4th personal vehicle I have sold on ebay and I have 100% positive feedback.  This is a 2005 car so there is the normal wear and tear on the interior and exterior.  I just had the car detailed and it looks great though!  There is some flaking plastic on the headlight switch and the A/C module.  I noticed a door ding on the passenger side door when I was going over it and there may be some smallish scratches as you might expect of a car of this age.  There are some scuffs on some of the wheels (see in pics below).  The center armrest opens further than it should but it worked fine so I didn't replace it (see in pics below).  I had some damage from a towing company on the front air dam and had it replaced along with one of the radiator fans under an insurance claim back in July of 2013. I also backed into a pole in a parking garage so had to replace the rear bumper cover and tail light.  When they replaced the bumper cover, they told me that the rear quarter panel on the driver's side was pushed in as well.  I didn't want to replace the quarter panel though so it is a little pushed in right near the rear tail light on the driver's side (see in pics below).  You can see a small gap in the rear window of the convertible top so it may need to be reglued or replaced at some point (see in pics below).  I haven't noticed it leaking though so it can probably wait for a while.  I have noticed a vibration in the car when I am accelerating from 40-60 so I think the motor mounts might need to be replaced at some point which is common on a car of this milage.  There is something wrong with the convertible top storage compartment in the trunk.  It doesn't effect the operation of the top in any way.  There is a lever that you can turn to increase the storage space in the trunk when the top is up and that is where the problem is.  You can still push it up by hand to use the extra trunk space, but the lever doesn't operate as it should (see in pics below where it is cracked). The hood release lever under the dash broke as well but you can still open it so I haven't replaced it. I replaced the rotors and brake pads and the alternator in May of 2012.  I know there are a lot of pics and I'm sorry if it takes a while to download them, but I like to give as many as I can. I'm selling the car because I am moving out of Florida and don't need a car any more. The car must be picked up and paid for within 3 days of the auction end because I will be leaving Miami as soon as the car is sold.
This is the pushed in rear quarter panel.
   
This is the little gap around the rear window on the soft top.

2014 Audi A3 Cabriolet cleans up the Messe [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

If we're being honest, the outgoing Audi A3 Cabriolet never really flicked our Bic. That was just fine, of course, because Audi never brought it to North America. This new model, however, might have a different future.
And while Audi has yet to officially decide on this car's North American future, this Frankfurt Motor Show debut clearly has a better sense of proportion and aggression to it, and we're excited about its powertrain solutions, too. For the European market, Audi is promising TFSI gasoline engines in either 1.4- or 1.8-liters, along with a 2.0-liter TDI diesel, all being available in front- and all-wheel drive. Audi has also confirmed its first-ever S3 Quattro Cabriolet, which figures to combine a quick 18-second top drop and its hard-hatted sibling's even quicker 296-hp 2.0-liter turbo.
Even though Audi has been better about bringing its high-performance models to North America and has a new emphasis on growing its A3 business in our territories (including a US-minded sedan bodystyle), we would still be a bit surprised to see an S3 Cabriolet popping its entry-level top in dealers in a couple years' time. Having said that, we do think this A3 Cabriolet is almost a lock. Be sure to take a good, long look at our gallery, video and the official press release below.

Audi moves to patent electric Quattro and active-shutter wheels

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Audi might have a few tricks up its sleeve for the coming years, with the Brits at Autocar uncovering a pair of patent filings made by the German luxury brand. The first is something we've seen before - wheel flaps - while the second is an evolution of one of Audi's trademark technologies.
We last saw wheel flaps on the Ford Atlas Concept in 2013, but the futuristic fuel-saving tech has so far failed to arrive on a production car. Audi may be seeking to change that, patenting the flaps that open and close automagically based on airflow. They can also open if the brakes get too hot.
The second patent is an evolution of Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive. The new AWD system uses an electrically driven rear axle and wheel sensors to figure out when and at which corner the car might lose traction, and is targeted largely at hybrid offerings, which is a field Audi has only recently dipped its toe into.

2014 Audi RS Q3 breaks out ahead of Geneva reveal

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

Ahead of its big reveal next month at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, Audi has released a handful of images and plenty of details for the all-new RS Q3. As the first-ever crossover from the marque with RS branding, this will be the fourth RS model to go on sale this year after the RS5 Cabriolet, RS6 Avant and the RS7, and while UK and Germany sales have been confirmed, there is no word as to whether we can expect this high-performance CUV to be available in the North America.
Sharing its 2.5-liter turbocharged and direct-injected five-cylinder engine with models like the TT RS and the RS3 Sportback, the 2014 Audi RS Q3 should deliver on performance, as it pumps out 310 horsepower and 309 pound-feet of torque (peak torque starting at just 1,500 rpm and running up through 5,200 rpm). This potent engine is paired to Audi's seven-speed S tronic transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive. Despite its small stature, the RS Q3 still tips the scales at just over 3,800 pounds. Even so, performance figures are still impressive with a limited top of 155 miles per hour and a stated 0-62 mph time of 5.5 seconds. The RS Q3 also gets a sport suspension that has been lowered by 25 millimeters, launch control and weight-saving front rotors with a wave-cut and cross-drilled design gripped by massive eight-piston calipers.
Looking almost identical to what we saw last year in concept form in China, the 2014 RS Q3 looks just as sporty as its spec sheet suggests that it is. Up front, the fascia gets massive air intakes with silver vertical accents and, like other recent RS models, the Quattro emblem is written across the lower air intake. The silver accent motif also continues on the grille surround, mirror caps, roof rails and rear diffuser trim, and the oval exhaust outlet is also an identifying feature of Audi's RS cars.
