    I have talked to the owner via text and over the phone. Everything seems like it is on the up and up. I have a flight on the 11th to go to Washington to drive the car back. I have wanted one of these for ever and have been serious about buying one for about a year now. Maybe someone here knows the history of this car. Thanks.

    Date on the cluster indicates battery was unplugged or died recently....

    Looks like a great car from the pictures.

    Good luck!

    Thanks. I remember seeing that but forgot to ask. He has several other cars so it might have just died.

    Rear bumper fitment around tail lights and left side of hatch is strange. Also uneven hood/fender alignment with headlights. Could be age. I’d ask about accident records. Also, rep rs4 grill. Other than that, looks pretty good for the price. Maybe ask about headliner condition too. Seems to be a luxury to have a decent condition headliner nowadays. .

    MBC with APR Stg2 tune running an RS4 MAF, that does not add up.

    So the headliner has no sags apparently. I am still waiting for a photo of that. But the carfax shows no accidents.

    Here is the under hood shot. I guess I am going to call APR to see if this car was ever tuned by them. The MBC did strike me as weird but I was just going to put bigger turbos on it soon enough that I wasn't concerned. Perhaps this owner was told about things that were not necessarily true.

    I remember seeing this car for sale up here a year or so ago with a few less mods and miles. Still had the PSS9s on it then.

    The dipstick in that picture is really bothering me

    That would line up with when he purchased it. Also why is the dipstick bothering you?
