For sale is my 2000 s4 that I converted to an "outlaw RS4"

I had all the OEM RS4 panels shipped directly from Germany and professionally fitted by a body shop.

I had the following imported from Germany :

OEM RS4 front bumper complete with grilles and fog lights, I do have a set of wagner fogless grilles that will be included as well
OEM RS4 fender liners (all four)
OEM RS4 front fenders
OEM RS4 rear fenders
OEM RS4 side skirts
OEM RS4 front and rear doors
OEM RS4 gas flap
OEM RS4 rear bumper ( I modded the stock S4 rear bumper to fit, as I did not like the look of the RS4 rear bumper...I can include the RS4 rear which requires extreme modifcations to make it fit)
OEM RS4 door sills

I then purchased a Eurogear Carbon Fiber vented hood and Eurogear Carbon Fiber Euro Trunk and a 2 Bennett carbon fibre sunroof delete.  Both were color matched to the car.

I had a custom DOM roll cage installed that was certified to NHRA 8.5 second specification.

The car was a clean silver s4 sedan that was never in an accident and has no rust what so ever.  The car was stripped down and the body panels were fitted to the car.  The rear fenders had to be cut and welded in, and the rest of the parts were professionally fitted.  I opted to keep the car the original silver, since it was going to be a race car with no panels fitted inside.  The car has no drivetrain and no front brakes.  The interior has been stripped (carpet removed, seats removed, dash removed, door panels removed).  The heater core and blower was removed as well.  I will include the original dash and the rear diff from the car.  There are no seats, carpet, door panels or motor or transmission included with the car.  The car was painted the original color, double the clear was used and the body was wet sanded to achieve a perfect finish.  The carbon fiber hood and trunk were color matched.  The roll cage was painted satin silver.  The front bumper has been wrapped in bubble wrap to protect it as it would of had to be removed off the car to install a motor.  In all the pics the hood was just floating and not attached in any way, hence the weird look.

The body and paint work alone cost me $13,000.
The rs4 panels cost me $7500
The rs4 door sills cost me $1000
Eurogear hood cost $1300
Eurogear trunk cost $1000
2 Bennett CF sunroof delete $600
Rollcage $3700
Clean S4 shell $2500

I have just a little over $30,000 invested in the car, no expense was spared.  This isnt for everyone, but someone will save a bunch of money, time and sweat when they purchase this car.  Car is on stock wheels, not the enki rpf1s seen in pictures.

Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs, there is a $1000 non refundable deposit that must be paid within 24 hours of auction ending.  Feel free to come and view the car in Maple Ridge BC.

Any questions let me know.

Thanks

2014 Audi R8 GT zooming toward Le Mans reveal

Mon, 17 Jun 2013

According to a report from Autocar in the UK, the Audi R8 is set to get something of a swan song for its own going-away party in the form of an updated GT model for the 2014 model year. If Autocar is right, this even higher-performance Audi R8 will debut at the upcoming 24 Hours of Le Mans race in France.
The 2014 Audi R8 GT Plus will reportedly get a tuned version of the much-loved 5.2-liter V10 engine that Audi has used to good effect in past R8 models. A six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch automatic would send power to the rear wheels, enabling a 3.4-second 0-62 mile per hour run and a top speed of 199 mph.
Judging from spy shots that we've already seen (reprised above), the new GT Plus will be fitted with an aggressive body kit that includes a massive rear wing, a more prominent front splitter and enlarged side blade ducts. A Spyder version of the GT Plus may be on tap for 2015. Pricing, obviously, is unknown, as is any potential launch date. In other words... stay tuned.

Audi looks at the future of transportation for Ender's Game film

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

The forthcoming science-fiction movie Ender's Game, starring Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsley, takes place in a high-tech world. So if movie-watchers are to be fully immersed in the story, every detail counts. That's why the computer-generated special-effects company assigned to the movie, Digital Domain, enlisted the help of Audi to design a future car that would fit seamlessly in the film's world - part of its $17.2-million investment in the movie.
Audi went all out, with Head of Audi Exterior Studio 1 Frank Rimili and designer Björn Wehrli assigned to the Audi Fleet Shuttle Quattro's design, which is so thorough and cohesive that we wouldn't be surprised to see cars like it on the road three-quarters of a century down the line. Rimili doubts that, but is "absolutely sure" Audi will still be around in 2088.
Watch the making-of video below to see all of the work that went into designing a car that will never see the light of day - in the real world, that is. If you're a fan of science fiction or the novel on which the movie is based, head on over to a theater to watch Ender's Game, which opens on Friday.

Honda, Hyundai top car residual value / depreciation awards list

Thu, Nov 18 2021

J.D. Power announced its 2022 U.S. ALG Residual Value awards Thursday, with Honda and Hyundai topping the charts at three models apiece in the industry-standard study. The term "residual" is an industry projection of how well a car will hold its resale value three years from the original purchase date – a key metric in calculating lease costs and projecting new-car depreciation.  Award winners included several enthusiast-friendly options, including the BMW 2 Series, Dodge Charger, Subaru WRX, Mercedes-AMG GT and Toyota Tacoma. Even the Ford Bronco was recognized, beating out the Jeep Wrangler in the Off-Road Utility segment. That may seem odd given the car's issue-plagued launch, but scarcity apparently trumps quality control issues over the longer term. Here's a scrolling complete list of winners broken down by segment: “Accurately forecasting residual values in the auto industry is a key factor in assessing an estimated $225 billion lease portfolio of vehicles in the United States,” said ALG VP Eric Lyman in the company's announcement. "The brands and vehicle models that rise to the top demonstrate that they score well across the award programÂ’s criteria, including manufacturersÂ’ superior design and quality." ALG looks at several factors to determine future value, which is especially tricky with new models. For 2022, 16 different brands were recognized across 29 segments. Behind Honda and Hyundai, Audi, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover and Subaru all managed to chart with two different models. Here's the rundown of those who won in more than one category: Honda Civic Honda Passport Honda Odyssey Hyundai Accent Hyundai Kona Hyundai Kona EV Audi A6 Allroad Audi Q3 Kia K5 Kia Telluride Land Rover Range Rover Velar Land Rover Discovery Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Mercedes-Benz Metris:  Subaru  WRX and  Subaru Forester Toyota Tacoma  Toyota Tundra "The award process consists of evaluating 284 models through analysis of used-vehicle performance, brand outlook and product competitiveness," the announcement said. "Eligibility for a brand award requires a manufacturer to have model entries in at least four different segments. To account for differences across trim levels, model averages are weighted based on percentage share relative to the entire model line."   Audi Honda Hyundai Kia Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Subaru Toyota
