The Audi S6 Avant Quattro is a high-performance luxury station wagon that fulfills all three functions (luxury, performance and utility) very nicely. It combines an extremely linear power-delivery 4.2 liter normally aspirated V8 (320 hp) with Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive, aluminum suspension bits for reduced unsprung weight and better handling, and a quiet, luxurious leather interior. It has a 5-speed automatic transmission with sequential manual shifting available via the shifter or push-buttons on the steering wheel. As I described this car in Autoweek in 2003, "It’s a luxury hauler that really hauls!"
I bought this car new from Park Audi in Andover, MA (now Audi of Nashua in Nashua, NH) in April, 2003 and have driven it continuously since, in suburban and urban service with occasional long trips around the northeastern U.S. In 2007 I added a high-performance exhaust system, installed by KTR Motorsports of Ayer, MA. In November, 2010, the car was struck in the rear while stopped at an intersection, damaging the rear door, which has been replaced with all new factory parts (by Groton Collision, Groton, MA). It has been serviced by Audi of Nashua, KTR Motorsports and Wilson's Service Center of Groton, MA. It currently has less than 93,000 miles, and I have maintained it carefully. I have reasonably complete service records. Included with the car are four snow tires mounted on rims for winter service. The car has one blemish: a broken latch (due to an errant grandchild) to the emergency equipment in the rear door, so when the rear door is open (upward), the hatch swings open. A $1.00 part would fix it.
This is a really nice, fast, smooth luxury car with extra carrying capability. Its elegant dignity and understated coolness make it almost invisible to the police, while the V8, the AWD and the great brakes mean you can really cover ground, effortlessly, in any weather. What a nice car! I’m only selling it only because I need to make room for a new Jaguar F-Type!

Audi Sport Quattro Concept to spawn volume sports car?
Mon, 30 Dec 2013There have been two modern re-imaginings of the original 1984 Audi Ur-Quattro: the Quattro Concept of 2010 (shown above) and the Sport Quattro Concept revealed at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. In between them, there have been numerous rumors about what, if any, kind of production car Audi might make of them. According to a new report in Auto Motor und Sport, Audi CEO Rupert Stadler has "indicated... that the car will come," and based on the specs presented, what we get might end up being a mix of the two.
Ulrich Hackenberg, Audi's head of R&D, apparently wants a sports car with wider appeal than the 700-horsepower hybrid Sport Quattro Concept. AMS says his vision would be built on a modified A6 platform - the same MLB architecture under the Sport Quattro Concept - with ample use of carbon and aluminum keeping the weight down to around 1,300 kilograms (under 2,900 pounds). Engines could include a 2.5-liter, five-cylinder (like that of the original, smaller Quattro Concept) offering anything from 310 to 360 hp. Those numbers would be at least 48 horsepower shy of the first concept, but a less-powerful entry point to a new model range would provide a lower cost of entry. Besides, a full model range would likely include a significantly healthier powertrain option on the top end.
At the moment, Hackenberg is said to be unsatisfied with the design of the car, which could well mean we'll get another concept car before a production version appears.
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
2014 Audi SQ5 ditches diesel, still packs a punch
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Over in Europe-land, the Audi SQ5 is a diesel-powered monster capable of sending a whopping 479 pound-feet of torque to its wheels. Naturally, this beast isn't coming to the States, but that doesn't mean we're missing out on the whole SQ5 experience altogether. At the Detroit Auto Show this week, Audi is debuting a new gasoline-powered version of the hot crossover, and while it's not quite the oil-burning dreamboat we've lusted after from afar, we certainly wouldn't kick it out of bed.
Instead of a diesel, we get a boosted version of Audi's supercharged 3.0-liter V6, good for 354 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque. Running through an eight-speed automatic transmission, the SQ5 will reportedly be able to fire off 0-60 times in the low-five-second range and will top out at an electronically limited 155 miles per hour. Suspension upgrades are on hand to improve road-going prowess, but also lower the Q5's stance a bit, too.
Because this is an S model, there are plenty of visual upgrades on hand, including a more aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and some pretty new colors including Estoril Blue and Panther Black. Interior upgrades like Alcantara trim and aluminum brightwork add to some sportiness from the cockpit view, as well.
