anyone on audi????

[thatguyMatt]

Is it a 10 or 20 valve? I had an audi 90 10v turbo quattro and it was great. You'll love it. However based on that second pic you showed I wouldn't touch that thing with a 10 foot pole

Audi never made a 90 10v turbo from the factory, sounds like somebody did a swap. :)

Honestly dude there are people who will hate on ANY car, and posting about an Audi in a BMW forum is kinda like asking a bunch of Ford guys if you should buy a Camaro. I am a big Audi fan and have a 1990 90 quattro 20v and 4 others so I can tell you so long as you take care of the maintenance they are terrifically reliable cars. Just like anything else make sure you buy a GOOD one with as many maintenance records as possible. The one you posted looks like a nice parts car. You can find nice coupes for around $3500 all day.

I remember seeing this on CL or KSL.COM in UT a couple of months ago. It was pretty cheap iirc. I hope you have a body shop connection, it needs some cosmetic love. Interior looks well sorted though.

still up and really cheap but decided not to buy it

ya actually certain years of vws are truly unreliable, and this is a bad year.

Vw is one of the only brands where electrical wire replacement is part of maintenance. Its true. I mean in all cars it maybe should be but in vw it is.
If you are a diyer theres lots of info on fixing them.

STAY AWAY. unless you use a audi mechanic. They are the most difficult cars to work on. I owned 2 shortly. The second one reinforced the experience of the first. Cars look great , almost kept me from buying an e30. Big difference working on that vw german junk and working on an e30.

yeah decided not to buy it talked to the old man about it and he said to stay away from it unless i wanted a headache hes been a mechanic for many years so he knows his stuff

Hmm, This cars looks familiar. Is it in Utah?

My buddie has a 98 a4. I like it and it looks good and very nice to drive. As to work on them they do seam to make an easy job difficult but it's German. Like for instance why in the world would you put a thermostat behind the water pump.

But I like them and would definitely consider buying one if i was looking for a new car.

theres a good way to start a flame war, talk about audis in a bmw forum.

In all honesty audis are very nice.

In all honesty, they are the brand most associated with gay men.
VW, was founded by hitler. It was started using slave labor of inferior peoples. the movie schindlers list is about this. Theres a certain amount of bad kharma about them imo

I would love a TT.

The new audis have that awesome double clutch thing. They are beautiful interiors.

Same company owns lamborgini and bugatti, they make nice stuff.

much nicer leather than bmw 3 series.

Audi's are horrible cars to buy used, and those pictures aren't making me very confident that your experience will go very well, haha.

thinking of buying my first 1991 audi quattro coupe
inline 5 4wd
but i don't know anything about them
i been doing some research and have gotten positive and negative reviews about them.
anyone has one or has owned one ?

how reliable are they ?

I have owned 3 older Audi's, an 80q, a 90q, and a CQ. They are fantastic cars! I would love to find another clean one to buy around here. And the sound of the 5cyl is ear candy. I would honestly say they were mechanically more reliable than any of my E30's Any of the 5 cyl Quattros from the 80's or early 90's are damn near bullet proof mechanically. Electrical problems happen here and there, but are well documented and repairs can be found easily by visiting forums like quattroworld.com

Buy it, you will love it.

Audi's are plauged with reliability issues. They're good cars when they're working properly, but that's a pretty rare event.
