2011 Audi S4 Prestige 4-door 3.0l Supercharged With Apr Software on 2040-cars
San Marcos, California, United States
2011 Audi S4 Prestige package You've made it to this ad so chances are you already know these cars are special. In case you don’t, here’s a bit of info to whet your appetite. Completely stock off the show room floor, these cars are wonderful. Add in a few carefully picked modifications like I have done here and you've turned a great car into something truly amazing. Anyone that knows anything about these cars and their potential will know that this car is going to give you loads of trouble free, exhilarating fun. If you've never owned a modern day Audi Sports Sedan, you owe it to yourself to look at this car. Trust me; just seeing people crane their necks to look at this car is worth the price of admission. It's almost as though you're driving an exotic. If you're looking for one of the cleanest S4's around, this is the one you want!!! This car is beautiful inside and out and runs perfectly. Well over 400HP with the addition of the APR software package. APR has been providing safe, reliable software for Audi's for years. This example is no exception and totally transforms the vehicle. The APR software package consists of (2) files. One for California 91 Octane and another for 100 Octane Race Fuel. The files are very easily switchable from inside the cockpit via the cars cruise control stock. No flashing device needed. Simply put in the proper fuel, select the file you want and off you go. The car sits on H&R OEM Sport Springs which gives it a nice hunkered down look without being overly aggressive. The addition of the Avant Garde M310 wheels in 19X9.5, finishes off the look. With the springs and wheels, the handling of this car is significantly improved over the factory settings without taking away from its comfortable ride. There is absolutely no rubbing at any corner with this set up even when the car is fully loaded with people and any gear you may be hauling around. The car rides on one of Michelins best performing street tires and all 4 have plenty of tread on them. The mushy factory rear differential mount has been replaced with an Apikol version. This modification takes away some of the slop present in the factory set up and allows for cleaner smoother shifting. The factory grill has been replaced on this car with an RS4 version. Just this modification alone, gives the car a much more aggressive look and sets it apart from run of the mill S4’s. Do you like your cars to sound like they mean business? Well this car checks that box nicely. With the addition of a Magnaflow x-pipe in place of the rear factory resonator, coupled with a pair of Magnaflow Mufflers, this car sounds amazing. Blip the throttle with a down shift on the paddle shifter and you're treated to one of the best exhaust notes you'll ever hear. It's so fun to do, that I mostly drive the car in manual mode. As good as it sounds however, it's not obnoxious. At idle and just cruising around, you would think the car was completely stock. The factory intake has been upgraded with the addition of a 034 Motorsport Intake tube along with a K&N filter that resides in the factory air box. This combination allows for better breathing and still keeps supercharger whine at acceptable levels. The windows have been tinted - 5% on the back 3 and 35% on the front 2. The car is hard wired for either a Beltronics or Escort radar detector as pictured. The radar detector is not included in the sale however. The car has been re-codded to provide features that were turned off for this vehicle from the factory. Examples include, Day Time LED's staying on when the turn signals are on, auto open and close of the windows and sunroof with the use of the car key fob. None of these changes affect the way the car drives and will not void the warranty. They simple add extra convenience options that were not turned on when the car left the factory. The car is a completely key-less entry vehicle. Just throw the key fob in your pocket and you can lock, un-lock the car as well as start and turn off the motor without ever taking the key out of your pocket. The car comes with a CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) warranty which fully covers the vehicle. It is good for 2 years or 50K miles. Registration has just been paid and is good through August 2015 Again,
this is one of the best 4 door sedans on the market today. At this price, there
isn't a lot that will touch it in terms of sheer driving pleasure, comfort,
luxury and acceleration. You simply have to see and drive this car to fully
appreciate it. Deposit of $500 due within 48 hours of close. Please make sure your financing is in place ahead of time. This is a private sale and will be treated as such. At completion, buyer is responsible for pay off to Audi Financial Services and any small remainder in the sale price will go to me. I am not interested in making money on this deal. The indicated sale price is close to payoff so there is little room for negotiation. I can provide the contact information for Audi Financial Services if needed. All shipping arrangements and costs are the responsibility of the buyer. Fully Loaded ·

Chief designer Walter de Silva out at Volkswagen
Fri, Nov 6 2015After decades of penning beautiful machines, Volkswagen Group design boss Walter de Silva will retire at the end of November but will still hold an advisory role. He has led the styling for the automotive giant's brands since 2007. The company's statement didn't announce a successor for him. De Silva began his design career at Fiat in 1972 and led styling at Alfa Romeo from 1986 to 1998. He first joined VW Group with Seat but made a big splash at Audi in 2002. His work there included the sixth-generation A6, A5, and the fantastic R8. Later, he created a great take on the classic Leica M9 camera, too. VW praised de Silva's creation of a design culture that spanned its division but still allowed for creativity within each one. "Walter de Silva epitomizes creativity and the Italian sense of beauty and style on the one hand and thoroughness, a systematic approach and discipline on the other," CEO Matthias Muller said in the announcement. De Silva's retirement could bring a major change in the way VW Group organizes its studios, according to Automotive News. The automaker reportedly wants to cut its annual styling budget and might not seek a replacement for him. Walter Maria de Silva takes retirement Head of Group Design established common design culture across all brands while retaining creative autonomy of each individual brand Walter Maria de Silva Walter Maria de Silva Walter Maria de Silva (64), Head of Group Design, is retiring with effect from the end of November. De Silva assumed design responsibility for all passenger car brands within the Volkswagen Group in February 2007. Walter de Silva will continue his links with the Group in an advisory capacity. Walter Maria de Silva was born in Lecco (Italy) on February 27, 1951 and joined the Volkswagen Group 17 years ago when he became Head of the SEAT Design Centre in 1998. He was put in charge of the design of the Audi brand group, including the brands Audi, Lamborghini and SEAT, in 2002. His new design language with Audi was epitomised by the 6th generation of the Audi A6 and Audi A5 Coupe. He was appointed Head of Group Design at Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft in 2007. Walter de Silva saw the main focus of his work as design chief in establishing and nurturing a common design culture across all brands, which nevertheless allows each brand to retain a high degree of creative autonomy.

Recharge Wrap-up: Smart metals, OTA updates, Rolls-Royce LNG ship
Wed, Mar 16 2016"Smart" metals could help engines reduce emissions and invigorate US business. Metallurgist and University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee professor Pradeep Rohatgi combines known metal alloys with materials like ceramics, nanoparticles, and recycled waste to produce strong, lightweight composites with self-lubricating properties that help internal combustion engines run more efficiently. Rohatgi hopes his startup, Intelligent Composites, and its products can help US foundries compete with production outsourced overseas. See the video above, and read more at Phys.org. Almost 203 million cars will be capable of over-the-air (OTA) updates by 2022, according to ABI research. While Tesla has the OTA firmware updates nailed down, other automakers will focus on software update capability. This will take the place of dealer-installed updates and - like Chrysler did after the Jeep hacking incident - updates sent to owners via USB drives. OTA updates will enhance vehicle security and reduce recall rates. Read more at Green Car Congress. European bus manufacturers have agreed upon a standardized charging interface for their electric buses. Irizar, Solaris, VDL and Volvo will use pantograph charging for "opportunity charging" and CCS plugs as the base for overnight charging and network communication. The manufacturers hope other bus makers and charging providers to join them in cooperation over standardized charging. Read more at Green Car Congress. The second Audi Autonomous Driving Cup will take place from March 22 to 24, 2016 at the automaker's Museum Mobile in Ingolstadt, Germany. The competition involves eight university teams implementing basic Audi software in 1:8 scale electric Audi Q5 models, and putting them through the paces of simulated real-world driving situations. The teams develop software architecture to use the suite of sensor to have the cars drive, park, maneuver in traffic and perform emergency braking autonomously. Teams also perform a freestyle event where they put the car through an additional task of their choosing. The winning team gets ˆ10,000, with smaller prizes for second and third place. The competition also gives the students the opportunity to showcase their skills in front of a potential employer. Read more at Green Car Congress. Rolls-Royce will provide the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) propulsion for an NSK cargo ship carrying fish food. The ship will deliver 2,700 metric tons of fish food to fish farms along the Norwegian coast.
