You are bidding on a no reserve auction for a 2005 Audi A4 Convertible.  This car is gray exterior with a gray leather interior.  This is a no reserve auction which means the high bidder gets it even if it is only $1!  I have had the car since 2010 and I think I was the 3rd owner. This car was garaged the whole time I had it. This car has been my daily driver, but I really don't drive much and have only put 7K miles a year on it since I bought it.  In 2011 at 72,000 miles I had the oil sludge problem that is common to this model and had to replace the engine with a used one that had about 20,000 miles less than the one in the car so the mileage on the new engine is actually less than the mileage on the car.  I believe in full disclosure and try to disclose every defect when I sell my cars so the buyer knows exactly what they are bidding on.  This is the 4th personal vehicle I have sold on ebay and I have 100% positive feedback.  This is a 2005 car so there is the normal wear and tear on the interior and exterior.  I just had the car detailed and it looks great though!  There is some flaking plastic on the headlight switch and the A/C module.  I noticed a door ding on the passenger side door when I was going over it and there may be some smallish scratches as you might expect of a car of this age.  There are some scuffs on some of the wheels (see in pics below).  The center armrest opens further than it should but it worked fine so I didn't replace it (see in pics below).  I had some damage from a towing company on the front air dam and had it replaced along with one of the radiator fans under an insurance claim back in July of 2013. I also backed into a pole in a parking garage so had to replace the rear bumper cover and tail light.  When they replaced the bumper cover, they told me that the rear quarter panel on the driver's side was pushed in as well.  I didn't want to replace the quarter panel though so it is a little pushed in right near the rear tail light on the driver's side (see in pics below).  You can see a small gap in the rear window of the convertible top so it may need to be reglued or replaced at some point (see in pics below).  I haven't noticed it leaking though so it can probably wait for a while.  I have noticed a vibration in the car when I am accelerating from 40-60 so I think the motor mounts might need to be replaced at some point which is common on a car of this milage.  There is something wrong with the convertible top storage compartment in the trunk.  It doesn't effect the operation of the top in any way.  There is a lever that you can turn to increase the storage space in the trunk when the top is up and that is where the problem is.  You can still push it up by hand to use the extra trunk space, but the lever doesn't operate as it should (see in pics below where it is cracked). The hood release lever under the dash broke as well but you can still open it so I haven't replaced it. I replaced the rotors and brake pads and the alternator in May of 2012.  I know there are a lot of pics and I'm sorry if it takes a while to download them, but I like to give as many as I can. I'm selling the car because I am moving out of Florida and don't need a car any more. The car must be picked up and paid for within 3 days of the auction end because I will be leaving Miami as soon as the car is sold.
This is the pushed in rear quarter panel.
   
This is the little gap around the rear window on the soft top.

Audi will offer A3 TDI owners same goodwill package

Tue, Nov 24 2015

Audi will offer a Goodwill Package, similar to the one Volkswagen has offered owners, for the German brand's emissions-cheating diesel four-cylinder engine. Participating customers will receive a $500 prepaid Visa, a $500 gift card for Audi dealers, and three years of 24-hour roadside assistance. "We are offering this Audi A3 TDI Goodwill Package as a sincere token of our appreciation for your patience," the company wrote on its customer website. This offer will only extend to the A3 TDI. A second EPA violation covers an estimated 85,000 vehicles in the US with VW's Group's 3.0-liter TDI V6 like the 2016 A6, A7, A8 and Q5, and the models are also under a stop sale. However, these owners aren't eligible for the Goodwill Package at this time. "Audi is currently investigating the allegations" against the six-cylinder engines, according to the explanation on the site's FAQ. Owners need to register their VIN on the company's website to apply for the Goodwill Package. They'll receive the items in the mail around four weeks later, but will then need to take the affected vehicle and the package to the dealer to activate the cards. Like the VW program, people have until April 30, 2016, to apply for the offer. VW Group of America CEO Michael Horn said last week around 120,000 people already registered for the brand's Goodwill Package. Related Video:

Cars with the worst resale value in 2022

Thu, Nov 10 2022

Car values are all over the map right now. Used vehicles that were worth a small fortune earlier this year are now coming back to Earth, but the new vehicle supply remains tight. Prices are still elevated overall, but some models have seen more severe price drops. Depreciation strikes almost every model, supply constraint or not, though a few vehicles are leading the way. New research from analytics iSeeCars found that a handful of cars depreciated more than 50 percent over five years, with the BMW 7 Series dropping 56.9 percent and an average price cut of $61,923 over that time. The vehicles with the highest depreciation — or worst resale value — over five years: BMW 7 Series: -56.9% Maserati Ghibli: -56.3% Jaguar XF: -54% Infiniti QX80: -52.6% Cadillac Escalade ESV: 52.3% Mercedes-Benz S-Class: 51.9% Lincoln Navigator: -51.9% Audi A6: -51.5% Volvo S90: -51.4% Ford Expedition: -50.7% iSeeCarsÂ’ research showed that midsize trucks, sports cars, and fuel-efficient vehicles were slowest to depreciate over five years, while itÂ’s clear that luxury brands tend to lose value much faster. As iSeeCarsÂ’ Executive Analyst Karl Brauer explained, used buyers donÂ’t value high-end vehiclesÂ’ features as much as the first owners, so resale values tend to be softer. The tech and options that made the cars so expensive and appealing new donÂ’t add the same value on the used market.

The Nissan Leaf depreciated most among EVs, dropping by 49.1 percent. The average EV depreciation is 44.2 percent, with the Tesla Model S and Model X sliding in right under the bar at 43.7 and 38.8 percent, respectively. As iSeeCars notes, itÂ’s important to be vigilant when car shopping and not let your emotions win over reason. Shiny new luxury cars look great in the showroom, but you could end up taking a bath when you try selling them a few years later on.

2014 Audi A3 Cabriolet cleans up the Messe [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

If we're being honest, the outgoing Audi A3 Cabriolet never really flicked our Bic. That was just fine, of course, because Audi never brought it to North America. This new model, however, might have a different future.
And while Audi has yet to officially decide on this car's North American future, this Frankfurt Motor Show debut clearly has a better sense of proportion and aggression to it, and we're excited about its powertrain solutions, too. For the European market, Audi is promising TFSI gasoline engines in either 1.4- or 1.8-liters, along with a 2.0-liter TDI diesel, all being available in front- and all-wheel drive. Audi has also confirmed its first-ever S3 Quattro Cabriolet, which figures to combine a quick 18-second top drop and its hard-hatted sibling's even quicker 296-hp 2.0-liter turbo.
Even though Audi has been better about bringing its high-performance models to North America and has a new emphasis on growing its A3 business in our territories (including a US-minded sedan bodystyle), we would still be a bit surprised to see an S3 Cabriolet popping its entry-level top in dealers in a couple years' time. Having said that, we do think this A3 Cabriolet is almost a lock. Be sure to take a good, long look at our gallery, video and the official press release below.
