    What is my car worth? I might be selling it soon...

    Mechanically it runs perfect, clutch is strong....flaws are listed below.

    I've spent about $2200 on upgrades & new parts (not including the $500 i bought it for), and still have issues with leaks & clunk from the rear subframe. Car exterior is a 6 out of 10 at best....interior is about a 7, but can easily be an 8 if you clean the carpets. 3 rust holes (1 underneath windshield, 1 underneath the usual battery tray, 1 underneath the drivers front fender) and dings/dents throughout.

    Hit me up at aesmilla@gmail.com if interested.

    Things that need to be replaced down the road:
    -Oil pan (small oil leak)
    -small coolant leak (i've already replaced the water pump, and its still leaking elsewhere)
    -rear subframe mounts? ....faint rear clunk on acceleration (happened after I dropped the rear subframe)
    -speedometer never worked (never bothered me)

    New or newer parts I've installed:
    -new vogtland springs + KYB shocks
    -new waterpump + gasket
    -new valve cover gasket
    -new BMW roundels (emblems)
    -new sway bar front links
    -new rear upper shock mounts
    -used stock Recaro E30 seats
    -used glove box + lock
    -new turn signal stalk + relay
    -used 17 x 7.5 Alpina replicas
    -new 215/40/17 Falken 615s
    -new hard brake lines installed
    -new front rotors & pads

    I'd say about $200 bucks...........I'll take it off your hands if you want since I don't think anyone will buy that beater.

    Really nice looking car. How many miles?

    Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

      thanks man....mileage unknown. One of my good friends owned it from 2003-2007....the odo broke on him 3yrs ago, and is stuck at 175K. My guess is that its around 200K since he used it to go to the train station and back.

            I agree, Maybe 2400, the rust is an issue for many buyers.

              Yea I had plans to do so, but I really want to save up for an E36 M3. The body didn't bother me much, since the rust issues were purely cosmetic (to me).....I wasn't planning on winning any awards w/ it lol, just wanted a presentable daily driver.....I've only put about 1000miles in the yr i've owned it. Its been sitting waiting to have parts installed on the tight schedule I have. I really don't want to put any more time or money into her anymore.

              Btw the paint shines up nice (aside from the body flaws). Its still the original factory single stage paint. I clay bar'd and took my PC to the paint....and was surprised on how well it came out considering the condition it was in.

                  Have I seen your audi in a magazine? It looks familiar...

                  The price estimates given seem to be accurate- good luck if you do decide to sell it...

                    lol if you did, I wasn't aware of it. My A4 w/ the mods I have are a dime a dozen nowadays. The BBS CH wheels I have on the audi are prob the most common wheels for that car.

                      btw I also have $2-3K in receipts from when my buddy owned it. Thermostat, steering rack, belts, and a couple other things were replaced....I have to double check the receipts to see what else.

                              I was hoping for $2500. If not I may just start dissassembling the whole thing and sell it in pieces.
