1990 Audi 90 20v Quattro

Very rare Audi that was only made with this engine in 1990 and 1991.  It was offered in both a coupe and a sedan.  During those two years Audi built around 1700 coupes and less than 1000 sedans.  They came with tons of features that were pretty far ahead of the times back then.  It was equipped with power everything, heated seats, automatic climate control, a power moonroof, drivers airbag, headligh washers, integrated ski bag, a factory rear spoiler, BBS alloy wheels and with things that are still unheard for today like an ABS kill switch and a locking rear differential.  

Here is an article that Automobile Magazine did on this car under its collectible classics section a few years ago.

automobilemag.com/features/collectible_classic/1011_1990_1991_audi_90_quattro_20v 

I had been looking for one of these for quite some time in unmodified condition.  It was a 2 owner car that was originally purchased in Roanoke Virginia (autocheck is counting title events from when the second owner moved from Virginia to North Carolina as a new owner).  I found it when the second owners son convinced his mother to sell it and get it out of their yard where it had been sitting for a while.  Due to it sitting it had some issues and I have addressed nearly all of them and have over $2000 worth of receipts dated since October to prove it!!  It is now in great running condition.  The engine is strong and has great compression and the Quattro all wheel drive works great (check out the snow pic)!!  The interior is also in great shape with no rips or tears in the seats, and no major stains, the power windows and locks are all working as well

Here is a partial list of parts and maintenance items that I have completed (again I have receipts for all of this no gimmicks here).  I have used only oem or oem spec parts and have not modified the car in anyway, except for the radio (I wanted something with an aux input and found the most factory looking radio I could).  I still have the factory radio and it will be included.


Front and rear struts
Front and rear strut mounts and boots
4 new tires
2 Front wheel bearings
Front breaks
Rear Rotors
Rear Breaks
Tie Rod assemblies (inner and outter ends)
Steering rack boot 
Front ball joints
Rear ball joints
Drivers side Window regulator
Front control arm bushings (4 total)
Rear control arm bushings (4 total)
Front sway bar links
Thermostat
Oil change
Several new switches 
Radio/rear speakers
Headlights
Custom exhaust repair
Power steering hose
Hydraulic fluid
Full size matching BBS alloy wheel as a spare


So onto some things I haven't completed.  It still needs a good detail inside and out.  The headliner isn't sagging but has some stains and was cut along the side when the previous owner had a phone installed (yes a car phone not a cell phone!!). The interior dome light isn't working could just be bulbs but I haven't played with it.  There are some minor body work issues that you may want to fix (minor dents) they didn't bother me but they are there (luckily the white paint doesn't show much).  The drivers side seat heater is not working, the passenger side works great but I haven't looked into the drivers side yet.  I did pick up a new switch for it but I haven't replaced it yet and I'm not sure that's the problem.  The rear differential is a little wet it looks like the axle seals are seeping a little but I have checked the fluid and the level is good so I haven't touched that yet either.  Germanautoparts website sells the seal kit for $80.  The AC is not working and would need converted to r134a.   The only other thing I can think of is the fog lights, one of them has a shattered lens and I haven't been able to find a replacement.  The other one is in good shape but I had to pull it out to pass Virginia inspection.  I know that sounds like a lot but I am just don't want there to be any surprises!

As you can see in the pictures I have two keys, the original owners manual, and a Bentley repair manual.  I also have some receipts from the previous owner that include a $3000 service from 2007.  Some spare switches for the interior, the factory radio and a few other spare parts that will be included with the car.  

So why am I getting rid of it after all this hard work and money invested?  I unfortunately can't afford a project car at this point and even though its in great shape now it is still a 24 year old car and anything can happen so I have decided to move on.  

Feel free to call, text or email me with any questions.

2015 Audi A6 spiffs up for Paris Motor Show duty

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

While the big names at the Audi booth might be dominated by the TT line, it's not the only product getting some attention from the German company. The A6, on sale in its present form since 2012, is getting its official mid-cycle refresh.
Featuring light exterior freshening, the new fascia wears a tweaked grille and slimmer, more expressive headlights. The rear end sees more substantial changes, with a freshened rear bumper that features rectangular exhaust outlets and more dramatically redone taillights.
Under hood, the 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 engine now produces 329 horsepower, while the 3.0-liter, turbodiesel V6s are available in 215- or 268-hp varieties, or in twin-turbocharged form, with 315 hp or 322 hp. The other big powertrain news surrounds the transmission. Audi has finally dropped the continuously variable transmission from the base, front-drive A6, slotting in a dual-clutch transmission in its place.

Audi execs mulling turbocharged, entry-level R8

Fri, Jul 17 2015

The just-launched, second-generation Audi R8 is apparently a pretty fantastic example of Vorsprung durch Technik. While it's sublime to drive, Audi might already be missing some potential sales due to the lack of an true entry-level version in the supercar's lineup. Lending further credence to an earlier rumor about just such a model, company execs are saying to expect an entry-level, turbocharged R8 to launch in the coming years. "It is inevitable that we will go to a turbocharged motor for it at some point," Audi technical development board member Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg said to Motoring. "It would be in this model cycle, to give us a fuller range." The executive certainly isn't mincing words about forced induction, but the V10's position in the lineup is also secure. "It doesn't mean we are not going to do a turbo, but naturally aspirated is here to stay as well," he said. If Dr. Hackenberg's direct assertion isn't enough, Quattro GmbH chief Heinz Peter Hollerweger further clarified to Motoring that the turbocharged engine would slot into the bottom of the R8's range. An unnamed "senior sales and marketing source" within the Audi also said that the company's turbo five-cylinder was among the currently favored choices for the application. The first rumors about the R8 getting a forced induction version arose just a few months ago. At the time, Audi's electrically turbocharged, 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder was considered an option. The model would solve a problem in markets, like China, that severely tax big displacement engines. Customers might not even need to worry about giving up too much performance either. In the Audi TT Clubsport Turbo concept, the powerplant has a total output of 600 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. While 10 fewer ponies than the latest R8 V10 Plus, it would bring 66 lb-ft more twist to the supercar.

Audi releases quartet of A3 commercials, likely headed for Super Bowl

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

With the announcement from Audi that it's new A3 would be the star of this year's Super Bowl advertising efforts still relatively fresh, it comes as a bit of a shock that what may be game-bound ads for the new small car are already starting to show up.
A3forums found four ads for the new A3, all of which are currently unlisted on YouTube, that play on the idea of young drivers saving themselves for the right luxury car. The spots are amusing, although we'll admit that we've seen better from Audi. Each spot plays like a clip from a documentary, with owners of cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus talking about their regrets when it came to buying a luxury car, rather than waiting for the A3.
We've got all four videos below, so take a look now, as we're betting they'll be pulled before too long.
