Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States
For sale:
UPDATE: Had full synthetic oil change and timing belt water pump service done. replaced all parts. pulleys, tensioner gaskets, hardware, everything in the system. I have a 2004 Audi A8L that has been the best car that my family has owned. We are looking to sell it to reduce our "fleet" It has higher miles (High way) but has been checked out by Good Karma in North East Minneapolis and it all checks out, they said "this is really a nice car. I would never guess it has as many miles as it does." The paint, Burgundy Red Pearl effect, is nearly spotless and still shines like it was new. The interior is in great shape with no rips in the heated, and cooled leather seats. Air ride system works as should, MMI works. I have both the CarFax and the AutoCheck reports available upon request. Ask questions PLEASE. Has almost every option, except the back up camera (IT DOES HAVE parking sensors) or the solar roof, which were junk and gimmicky. Plus you don't actually get the sunroof with the solar option. MPG 17 city 25 Hwy. Pretty good for a BIG 330hp V8 ! As with all Audi A8L's it is AWD Quattro, and has a 6 speed Automatic (Triptronic) transmission. I have 2 full sets of wheels with good tires. SUMMER wheels: 20" eagle flight black and chrome tires: 275-35/20 NITTO N555 300$ each WINTER wheels 18" ASA matte black with silver accent tires 245/45-18 Brigstone Blizzak LM-25 excellent shape NOTICE: The Buy It Now is your agreement to commit to buy the car. NOT to come view the car and see if you want it. Please understand this when you are shopping. Also: I do have the car listed Locally, so it might sell before the end of this 'auction.' I will pull the listing down, if it sells out side of eBay. I reserve the right to end early. Thank you Rusty |

Audi testing long-tail version of R18 e-tron quattro for Le Mans
Sat, 27 Apr 2013Race teams are always looking for ways to shave hundredths of seconds of their lap times. Case in point: Audi is making some slight changes to its prototype racecar to make it ever so much more slippery as it cuts through the air.
Debuting at the second round of the FIA World Endurance Championship at Spa on May 4, Audi will be testing a long-tail version of its R18 E-tron Quattro racecar. As its name suggests, the long-tail car gets a lengthened rear section with the goal of improving aerodynamics. The long-tail will be run alongside the standard version of the racecar as a testbed for possible changes that might be in store, heading into the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Audi did not say how many inches were added to the racecar, but as you can see in the image above, "long-tail" definitely doesn't take on the same meaning of classic long-tail cars of the past such as the Porsche 917. More information about the car, Audi's team and even some info about the track itself can be found below.
Automakers need to stop stalking celebrities
Fri, Jan 24 2014Since the invention of the automobile, cars and stars have gone together like paparazzi and the Kardashians. During this season of starlet-adorned award ceremonies, from the Golden Globes through to the Oscars, you will find a lot of car companies all vying to loan out their vehicles to any celebrity with a recognizable face who happens to be heading to a red-carpet award ceremony. There is, however, none so coordinated, consistent and aggressively playing the Fame Game as our friends at Audi. Since the invention of the automobile, cars and stars have gone together like paparazzi and the Kardashians, so by association getting a celeb behind the wheel of your car brand gives it an instant image boost that must make the car more attractive to buyers. Celebrity tales equals dealership sales. That's the logic, anyway. But surely the millions of dollars spent giving free cars to rich stars is a waste of precious and increasingly smaller marketing budgets. It's time to make the car the star, not the other way around. Lets be clear, we are not talking about the very obvious dropping of famous faces into big budget ads. That has its place in the marketing toolbox, but in a very media savvy world it's clear most of us get that play-for-pay concept. Today, the use of just a famous name in an ad yields very little influence on whether you or I will buy that car. No, this awards-ceremony loaner deal is a subtler, but higher risk, idea that if you see a "star" with "their" car in "real life" then surely that adds to the car's appeal. We, the audience, are expected to start salivating like Pavlovian puppies in our desire to have same car in our own, less red-carpeted driveway. Geoff Day has been called the "Pied Piper" of the auto industry, leading auto journalists on wild rides around the globe in his position as former director of communications for Mercedes-Benz USA. Before that, he worked at DaimlerChrysler UK on its PR efforts, and rubbed elbows with the Queen of England in his role at the Buckingham Palace Press Office. His phone is filled with the numbers of the great, the good and the bad. His head is filled with dirty little secrets hiding in many corners of the auto industry. There is no doubt that the publicity that comes with a well placed story, picture or feature can help raise awareness of a product – Oprah proved that with her "Favorite things" – especially if you are launching a line of wrinkle cream or juice bars.
Audi inaugurates new R8 production line at Neckarsulm
Sat, 18 Oct 2014Of all the factories which the Volkswagen Group operates around the world, the Audi plant in Neckarsulm may not be the very largest, but it is among the most diversified. That's where Audi builds versions of the A4, A5, A6, A8 and Q7 lines. It's also been home to the R8, but now the German automaker has moved supercar production to a new facility just a few miles down the road.
Back in August, Audi stopped production of the R8 at its main Neckarsulm site and moved it to the new Böllinger Höfe site in Heilbronn, restarting production just three weeks later. The new assembly line brings together various workshops that had been scattered about the Neckarsulm complex under one roof, and will surely make production of the next-generation R8 that much smoother.
The Böllinger Höfe facility is about a quarter the size of the main Neckarsulm plant, and will also house a small-scale production line - similar, we gather, to what Audi subsidiary Lamborghini recently built in Sant'Agata Bolognese - and a massive, state-of-the-art logistics center with capable of handling 4,500 containers each day.
