Selling my Used 2002 Audi S6 Avant 4.2L
This car is Extremely well maintained. I am selling this car primarily because I purchased an A3 TDI for better gas mileage. This car is wicked fast and handles like a 2 door coupe sports car. The S6 truly is the perfect car for someone who wants space and sport. The car has had over $5000 in maintenance, repairs and upgrades in the past two years. If I had to rate the car I would say the exterior is a 7.5/interior a 9 Here are some of the repairs: *New transmission 200 miles ago. *New front brakes and rotors *Valve cover gaskets were replaced last fall *All oil sensors were replaced and new gaskets were installed. *Exhaust manifold gaskets were replaced. *Power steering was flushed and new washers and gaskets were installed (almost a rebuild) *19" gunmetal grey wheels were installed and brand new performance tires were mounted this spring. *CV Boots were done *Coolant flush done last fall *Timing belt and water pump were done at around 87,000 miles I know I am missing something but those are the main ones. I have the receipts for every repair done. Here is the story of what this car is: The Audi S6 boasts a very strong 4.2-liter, 340-hp V8 engine, a performance-tuned version of the one that sat in the Audi A8. But not a lot of aftermarket performance parts were made for the S6 due to it being a relatively rare car. There were only about 900 sent over to the U.S. and it was only in production for 2002 and 2003, so the second generation Audi S6 is somewhat unique and rare on the road, adding to its stylish cache. Although after its initial demise in 2003, the third generation S6 has made a come back in 2007. The second generation S6 only came as a wagon, meaning it offered the space, cargo capacity, and practicality of a family car, the confident road grip of quattro, plus the sports car-like handling of a flashier racer....its a low key rocket. With a power-to-weight ratio of 184.57 bhp/ton, this 4000lb wagon does 0-62mph in about 6 seconds. Top speed is electronically limited 155 mph, some have said given enough road the car could reach the better side of 180mph. It features all of the interior amenities Audi prides itself on offering, as well as sporty touches in its distinct grille, dual exhaust pipes, and brushed aluminum mirror moldings. The negative of this car: *small rust bubbles on rear hatch below the window (very easy fix as it is just bubbles *exterior paint has minor scratches. They are not bad and expected for the year of the car. *minor paint chip on rear bumper that is only visible when close up Specifications

Audi takes cars that park themselves to a whole new level
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Autonomous cars are impressive displays of in-car technology, but what exactly would the benefit of such systems be for the average driver? Audi has answered that question by showing off its Piloted Parking system for the Audi Connect at CES 2013.
Installed on this Audi A7, Piloted Parking allows a driver to drop themselves off and have the car autonomously drive away on its own and find its own parking spot. The car can then later be retrieved by "calling" it back with a specially designed smartphone app. We'd be lying if we said this didn't bring back memories of Michael Knight summoning KITT with his wristwatch. The most impressive part of this car might be the fact that the car is fully autonomous but doesn't have any obvious sensors or monitors on the exterior of the car like many other self-driving cars have.
Check out a video of the this innovative technology in action after the jump.
Audi builds 5-millionth vehicle with Quattro
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Quattro, the trademark name Audi has put on its all-wheel-drive system engineered for passenger vehicles, recently celebrated its five-millionth installation. The driveline has been offered in more than 140 different vehicles since its introduction more than three decades ago.
The all-wheel-drive technology made its world debut at the 1980 International Geneva Motor Show, beneath the floorpan of the Quattro Coupé, a low-volume two-door. It didn't take consumers long to embrace Audi's innovative approach. While most four-wheel-drive systems at that time utilized heavy transfer cases or second cardan shafts, Quattro was virtually tension-free, light, compact and efficient. Most importantly, enthusiasts found it was especially suitable for sports cars.
Today, the automaker offers Quattro on its full line of passenger vehicles and it is unquestionably successful (the technology enjoyed a 43 percent take rate in 2012). On models with transverse-mounted engines (A3 and TT), Audi uses an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch with hydraulic actuator. Under normal conditions, the clutch sends power almost exclusively to the front wheels (if wheel slippage occurs, up to 100 percent of the torque may be sent to the rear). Vehicles with transverse-mounted engines (A4, A5, Q5, etc...) use a self-locking center differential sending 40 percent of the engine torque to the front axle and 60 percent to the rear under normal conditions (it is able to send the majority of the power to the axle with better traction when needed). The highest-performing Quattro systems use torque vectoring to further improve cornering grip and speeds.
2014 Audi RS7 is a 189-mph terror
Mon, 14 Jan 2013If you have a burning desire to take yourself and four friends to 189 miles per hour, the 2014 Audi RS7 Sportback can help you out. The luxury hatchback bowed at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show today, complete with a 560-horsepower twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine thrashing under the hood. Getting to 62 mph takes a shave under 3.9 seconds thanks in part to the 553 pound-feet of torque on hand from just 1,750 rpm. While the base car comes with an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph, customers can request the governor be removed by purchasing the dynamic package plus, upping the V-max to 189 mph.
Ludicrous? Sure, but Audi says the RS7 can also yield up to 25 mpg on the US scale. With a cylinder-on-demand system, the V8 can deactivate up to four cylinders by closing their valves. Once the driver gets frisky with the throttle, the engine automatically kicks from four-cylinder to eight-cylinder mode in a few hundredths of a second. The engine is bolted to an eight-speed automatic transmission, which pushes power to all four wheels. You can read the full press release below for more information, but we think you'll have a better time viewing our live shots from the show floor..
