I've owned this car since March of 2011, I purchased from the second owner, an older Polish guy in Northern Virginia who bought it from CarMax with 70k ish miles. It had 136,xxx miles on it when I bought, so in two years I've put 10k on it. I planned on not selling this for a long time, since I will never find another wagon this clean, even with the damage. However I recently bought a M3 and it needs a power steering rack. I've done a lot of maintenance to this over the time I've owned it, and usually upgraded the parts if I could since they needed replacing anyways. All the work was done by a good friend who is a technician for VW. The interior is very clean (never smoked in and I smoke), headliner has no stains, seats have no tears, all speakers work, & all windows work.

Details:
-147,4xx (will increase slightly)
-5 speed manual
-Melange Beige Metallic
-Black Leatherette (excellent condition)
-Auto-Dim Mirrors

Maintennace:
-All rotors: Zimmerman cross drilled & slotted $350 (Brakes done around 138k ish miles)
-All pads: Hawk HPS carbon ceramic $180
-Coolant expansion tank x2 (only buy OEM) $70 and cap $20
-New foglights $120 + Laminx $20
-Ziza headlight bulbs $30
-Lower radiator hose $60
-Coolant has been flushed probably 4 times
-Oil changed 3 times since I've owned it, every 4500 miles (Mobil 1 Synthetic 0w40, OEM filters, new crush washers) $60 every time
-ECS magnetic oil pan drain plug $15
-New battery $100 (actually had the OG battery still working until June of 2012)
-Timing Belt/Water Pump/Thermostat/Lightweight Crank Pulley/Belts $350
-Transmission and rear differential flushed with Royal Purple 75w90 $120 of fluid
-ECS magnetic transmission drain plug $20
-Power steering reservoir and cover both OEM $80
-OEM power steering fluid $25

-Labor for all of that even with the hookup $700-800

Bad:
-Washer fluid leaks so the light comes on
-Center display in cluster has missing pixels
-A/C needs a recharge (won't need it till summer though)
-Damage to the hatch and rear bumper, a truck hit the hatch at >5 MPH in a parking lot and the bumper was backed into outside my girl's dorm at night (BUT I have a Pre-Facelift "Euro" Hatch, and a rear S4 Bumper to go with the car, these parts weren't easy to come by.)

Needs:
-Passenger rear wheel bearing
-A/C belt tensioner

KTM X-Bow to get Audi TT-RS five-cylinder turbo

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

The Audi TT-RS continues to occupy a warm spot in my personal top five list of cars thanks in no small part to the lusty turbocharged 2.5-liter five cylinder under the hood. With 360 horsepower and 343 pound-feet of torque in stock configuration, the engine is a shining star of internal combustion. And now it's headed to one of our favorite vehicles. EVO reports KTM is planning to plop the turbo 2.5 from the TT-RS into the upcoming X-Bow. That ruckus you hear? It's a choir of angels singing "Halleluiah." While speaking at the Geneva Motor Show, KTM CEO Stefan Pierer said the engine is good for up to 480 horsepower.
Pierer went on to say that the company is already testing prototypes and that we may very well see the engine show up in some races next year. What's more, the company's engineers are playing with dual-clutch transmissions, too. Since KTM is already testing the turbo 2.5 on the track, it's only a matter of time before customers will be able to get their grubby mitts on a street-legal version.

Jon Olsson's 1,000-hp Audi RS6 Avant stolen at gunpoint, burned

Fri, Oct 16 2015

Swedish professional freeskier Jon Olsson loves some insanely modified vehicles, like his Rebellion R2K, but tragedy recently struck for one of his crazier former rides. The custom Audi RS6 Avant was a wild wagon with DTM-inspired bodywork and an engine tuned to a claimed 1,000 horsepower. Unfortunately, the machine was stolen in a brazen armed robbery. Making matters even worse, the crooks torched the car at the end of their joyride. Olsson drove the tuned RS6 in this year's Gumball 3000, and later sold it to a dealer in the Netherlands, according to Auto Evolution. Recently, the wagon was taking part in a photo shoot in Amsterdam. That's when two armed men showed up to steal the Audi. Somehow in the chaos, the robbers' van caught fire, and they got away with the RS6. The criminals weren't too clever, though, because they didn't think to grab the key from the owner's pocket, Car Throttle reported. That would have made the Audi much more difficult to start again, if they shut if off. Although, that apparently never became a problem. The crooks sped off and eventually dumped the car before police were ever able to get them. In a final act of destruction, the thieves also incinerated the one-of-a-kind RS6. An investigation is ongoing. Olsson's Instagram post below shows how little is left of this once incredibly cool wagon. "But now I am more motivated than ever to follow this build up with something just as good," Olsson wrote on his website. Poor poor #RS6DTM Such a sad sight! ??? Who would do such a thing! #hurtsmyheart A photo posted by Jonolsson1 (@jonolsson1) on Oct 15, 2015 at 8:03am PDT Related Video:
