2003 Audi A8lquattro At5 Awd on 2040-cars
Arden, North Carolina, United States
2003 Audi A8L AWD. Garage kept all its life. Navigation equipped in the dash. This is a two owner vehicle that has been well cared for and adult female driven. It has 135,500 miles and used as a family car it's whole life and not driven by some college kid who abused it. It came fully loaded with BOSE sound system 6 changer CD/Cassette player, sun-roof, heated seats, navigation, rear sunshades etc. It has the ski package boot that allows users to put their skis in the trunk through the back seat. Also AUDI equipped first aid kit in the rear console. PLEASE REVIEW PICTURE OF ACTUAL WINDOW STICKER FOR ALL THE EQUIPMENT. This car has the upgraded 17" wheels with matching Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires that have about 5000 miles of ware on them. The timing belt was recently replaced and other maintainence at a cost of $5000.00. The only thing I can find wrong is a ding near the driver's side door handle and two lights on the dash that I am currently exploring the cause. These are windshield fluid "low" indicator and "low tire pressure" indicator even though the reservoir is full and tires are inflated properly. It has front AUDI rubber mats over carpet mats. The rear window sun shade is automatic by dash switch. There is front and back parking indicators. Please keep in mind I am selling this vehicle for a friend. His name is Harold, a really nice guy who will welcome any questions by phone. His cell # is 828-230-0747. I asked him if this car had ever been wrecked and he advised me that the previous owner, his wife's boss said that it had been involved in some "fender-bender" so be sure and get a carfax on it to clear your mind. The car looks great to me and I only minimally had to clean it as Harold and his wife are very clean people. But, please don't expect a new car when you show up to see it as it was the family roadster for over 135,000 miles. It does have a few little blemishes etc. but overall I think this will make someone very proud to own it. It's a very sharp, fully German engineered luxury car that is very sporty. You could buy it for your teen but keep in mind this is a very fast V8 with 310 HP high performance vehicle. I took it for a test drive and was very impressed by the way it handled and engine performance is incredible. I guess it should for a car that cost almost $70,000 new! But, it also a very safe one with lots of equipment designed in it to keep any occupant safe in a crash. Don't PAYPAL...too expensive. If you win the bid we will work out the payment... probably cash or check on delivery. This car is located in Asheville, NC. So, come pick it up and stay a few days. Also, keep in mind this car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to pull this ad early. If there is a bid, I won't pull the ad and will sell to the winning bidder. |

Refreshed 2015 Audi A8 starts at $77,400*
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Audi definitely made the US wait for the refreshed 2015 A8 and S8. The updated models were first unveiled last summer, but it has taken until June for the revised flagship sedan to reach dealers here.
The refreshed A8 line doesn't come cheap, though. Prices are up $2,000 or more over the 2014 model year. The basic 3.0T model goes for $77,400 or $81,400 for the long wheelbase version. The long wheelbase TDI is $85,100. The standard 4.0T model asks $86,400 or $90,400 for the longer one. An S8 sets back buyers $114,900, and the full bore A8L W12 is $137,900. All of these prices exclude destination (which was $895 last year and now stands at $925, according to Audi representative Mark Dahncke).
To make the wait worth it, Audi is packing the sedan with new technology and given it the slightest restyle. All models of the luxurious vehicle now come standard with full LED headlights. The 2015 model also benefits from electromechanical steering, available variable ratio steering and active lane assist. The night vision system is also updated to detect animals and alert the driver. Mechanically, there are some tiny tweaks as well. The 4.0T V8 is boosted to 435 horsepower, compared to 420 hp previously, and the 6.3-liter W12 now has cylinder deactivation.
Audi spotted running R8 E-Tron at the 'Ring
Wed, Oct 28 2015An electric version of the original Audi R8 may never have come to fruition – at least not in a form you could actually buy. But with the introduction of the all-new, second-generation model, Audi is getting serious about the prospect of producing the R8 E-Tron. And if you don't believe it, just look at these latest spy shots. Spotted testing at no less punishing a location than the Nurburgring is the upcoming new 2016 Audi R8 E-Tron. It looks just like the one we saw in Geneva earlier this year, painted in that same shade of electric blue, which we think suits the car rather well. It even has that orange strip of lighting around the side intakes, which drives the point of its electrification home in a rather stylish way, too. This prototype is wearing different wheels, and looks like it has some testing equipment mounted inside. Otherwise, this is pretty much what we can expect to see when Audi begins selling its electric supercar. We're sure there are more than a few eagerly awaiting customers who want to get their hands on an EV different from the Teslas or Nissan Leafs every other tree-hugger in the neighborhood has plugged in to their garages. To that end, expect the order books to open sometime later this year or maybe early into the next. Then the dream of an electric coupe with 456 horsepower and 679 pound-feet of torque, good for a 0-60 time in the three-second range and capable of tackling the Nordschleife, will finally become a reality. In the meantime, you can check out a piece of the action in the image gallery above.

2015 Audi A3 TDI Challenge
Wed, 12 Nov 2014I officially gave up after 758 miles. The 15 or so miles leading up to this decision were spent in the right lane of Southern California's I-8 freeway, hazard lights blinking, climbing uphill at just over 40 miles per hour. After two days of sweating to the oldies (okay, a mix of SiriusXM Classic Rewind and First Wave), I had covered those 758 miles in a 2015 Audi A3 TDI on one tank of diesel fuel. And when I say sweating, I mean it quite literally. In order to maximize fuel efficiency, my co-driver and I kept the air conditioning off, even when the direct sunlight in the California desert had outside temperatures hovering around 90 degrees. I had been doing this hypermiling exercise for two days, the car was getting stinky, and I was ready to hear the sweet "thhhhhhhwack" of satisfaction that would finally come from peeling my sweat-soaked self off the A3's leather seat. Sexy, I know.
Audi had challenged me to drive 834 miles from Albuquerque, NM to San Diego, CA, on just one 13.2-gallon tank of diesel fuel. If you believe the EPA's highway fuel economy rating of 43 miles per gallon, this means I should have sputtered to a stop after 568 miles. But I went a grand total of 758 - that's 59.4 mpg - and I could have kept going. In fact, two teams made it the full 834 miles on their one allotted tank of fuel. That's over 63 mpg. That's twenty miles per gallon better than EPA estimates.
The TDI Challenge took me through three states over the course of two days, and the 834-mile journey wasn't just a simple highway cruise. I negotiated uphill climbs, long series of involving switchbacks through the mountains and elevations that ranged from 220 feet below sea level to nearly 8,000 feet above. I learned that super-crazy-efficient driving like this an incredibly challenging game that takes serious skill. But I also learned that if you're going to attempt to stomp all over the EPA's numbers, the Audi A3 TDI is one heck of a car for the journey.
