I bought this car at an Auction on saturday. It has 177k with the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, and pulleys done withing the past 25k from the previous owners maintenance. I got her for $1200 and a free 1 hour test drive. It shifts smooth, the suspension doesn't clunk and nothing rattles. I still have to get used to the Auto tranny but its comfortable ride and it's got everything but a CD player which is in the works. I hope to learn alot here and enjoy the Audi. Here she is:
$1200 (Car) + Heater core ($675.00) + Oil change, valve cover gasket, inspection, misc labor ($200.00) = $2100 for a great running car

UPDATE:
For anyone installing HID bulbs you need to either leave the housing off the back side of your lights or cut a hole approx. 1.5" in dia right behind the low beam bulb socket so your wires can make it out of the housing but still seal it for the most part. I Installed 10k HID's into my low beams and ordered 10k HID's for the fog lights and High Beams. I'll post pics of the HID install when I get the other 2 sets in. I also ordered red LED bulbs so when I open the door at night my car glows red from under my dash and all of my interior lights will have white LED bulbs along with the trunk and plate lights. If anyone has done this themselves fee free to post what it looks likes.
Also, it took me 3 weeks to figure out how to eject the damn duran duran cassette that came with the car... who would have thought you press both the forward and reverse buttons at the same time?
