Its a 1996 2.8 Quattro MT with 111,xxx miles... the price on the window is 8500, he said he would take 7900... The car is a total POS... I test drive it, it has no power and ran soooo rough. The rims are hiddious... LUCKLY the center caps (that look like spikes) come off and you can replace them with normal round caps... (THERE is hope for this A4). I just took it for a spin, because Im an Audi Nut, and I LOVE the rare burnt orange colour. I was going to buy it for the 7900 take all the mods off (HR suspension, body kit, etc) because my car is bone stock, with the exception of the Kamei grille, eyelids, and brola exhaust) and I was going to sell the car when I was done, but its just such a POS, and runs horrible... defonitly borderline Rice.... Pics below... say what you wish, LOL

I like your car MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't see anything borderline there. I think it sucks. Certainly not worth the money to de-mod it and mod it the way you'd want to.

If it had nice rims and no fake piece on the front chin it would look much better. I'd also put back the stock bumper inserts, not have them painted.

Might as well repaint your car to burnt orange if you like the car that much(or when you get a full body kit) other wise that car is a PILE OF SH*T!(and yes i knew my CAPS were on!)[:D]

Doesn't look too bad for $8500 as far as I'm concerned. Maybe got crazy miles.

Yah supfast, its a 96 with 111K.... not worth it, he probably picked it up at auction for 2500-3000, and he wont take a penny less than 7900, goes to show you the nasty markups.
Ripplechip- I agree, like i said the inserts in the rims that look fake are changable... and the black inserts would look much better.!

thats exactly what i say... slap some nice rims on them and do something with that mesh, i dont think it will be a bad ride.

Don't know what the hootin' hollerin's all about, that's a beaute. I Wish my car had CHROME NINJA rims and was the color of the rising sun...or beer barf... very rare color.
I'm not a chrome fan on our cars. And I think that body kit is basically fugly.
And that looks like a 4x4 suspension.

That kit is such a shame. I like the sideskirts and rear valence but the front lip is just AWFUL.

Cars must sell for cheap up in NJ. My boss at work suggested that I sell mine for $7900 this past summer, but I kept it. I had quite a few interested buyers until they found out it was a MT and their wives couldn't drive it, haha.

Everyone says it's not lowered...It's lowered on stock A4 non-sports...Remember, A6 suspension came as an option on some cars!

Besides the color, if you change the front spoiler, rims and lower it more, it looks like some of the cars here in Audizine.
Defiantly not my taste but it's not that ugly. I've seen much worse. Only needs a front spoiler, lowered more and rims. Well that covers only the cosmetics part of it.
I have a good idea.... print out these post and show it to the dealer. Probably knock off another $3000 [:D]

Just buy some brand new parts for your whip you will be much happier and less of a pain in the a$$ to get done.
in comparision to doing the job 4 x instead of 1x

$7900 screw that. I paid $6000 for my 96 with 85K on the odometer. Plus mine got the cold weather package and every other option that was available. I would pass.

In that case, must come with 3 copies of Halo 2, and 12 controllers, for a 4(I guess you could say 5) person car.
