So I've been lurking for a while, and always loved the b5&6 models of the a4. I fell into a b5 Quattro, and couldn't pass on it. I won't dwell on specifics, but it's a 96 5spd quattro with the 2.8 motor in it. The market for the 12v isn't there I know, but I'm just looking for a clean looking weekender and this was a perfect fit. The previous owner put a lot of money in it, and had to get out from under it. It needs a few things, it has a pinhole in the exhaust, and needs the ABS controller fixed, but alot of the electrical gremlins I was able to sort out shortly after I bought it.
Great forums, thought I'd post some pics after this weekend's detail fest. It needs a new hood, but I think I'm going to go with a CF hood and paint the side portions, and go with a carbon front lip... I haven't decided. Anyway, here she is!
Enjoy - Ryan

CAB - I'm in Columbus, on the east side in the gahanna / new albany area.
AWDaholic - for the record: on more than one occasion I've posted my arguments for leaving Ohio with my wife. If it weren't for the obvious things like jobs and family, we'd have been gone long ago.
