I still wonder if Audi would have offered some good will on this.
I’m thinking about farming out my Coronet work. I was out there today and everything I started getting my hands in needed some fab work. For example, the new power brake booster needs new holes drilled in the firewall, not a big deal, but also a larger center hole, so I guess I’d need a specific size hole saw that I don’t own. Alright, onto the next… headers. Oh, hmmm… that will require cutting off the ends of the old pipes and welding new ends on. Not my forte, and would be almost required to have a lift. Maybe I should put the heads back on. Uhhh… water jacket is pretty nasty after sitting, so that should be flushed out but my hoses are shut off for the winter and I really don’t want rusty water all over my garage floor. Sigh

I agree on the miles and price for sure, but I’m also sure that @roadburner would prefer a 2019 or newer M2 Competition with a manual transmission. I don’t see any documentation of the M service at 1200 miles on that 2017, which is important to M aficionados.
@andres3 perhaps should zip up to Seattle and pick up the 2017 M2 DCT?? $20k for new motor in S4 vs $49k for M2 including motor??
It's actually closer then that.... Sell S4 without motor for $10K, get M2 for $39K more. Anyways, too late now, but could sell the S4 for $30-33K easy I think in this market.
Biggest problem I'd have with a 2017 M2 is that I'd have another expensive car not under warranty. Deathly afraid of that right now.

Even less miles than mine but a year older.

I thought the asking price high too. He tries to make it seem like it just needs a new rod.
That CS must have something horribly wrong with it to be priced so low.

I believe they're a nearly straight wholesaler, but yeah....how that ended up there vs. a BMW dealer is questionable...

speaking of which I am supposed to go pick it up Friday morning. Probably a good deal for this market at least. About $1,900 below MSRP, and only adding on NJ tax and DMV and the standard dealer doc fee ($299 or $399 I think). Nothing else tacked on.
financing for 3 years at 0%. Hard to say No to free money! payment is going to give me heart palpitations but its really the just keeping money in the checking account seeing as what that pays in interest.
out of curiosity, I asked for a lease quote too. Sticker is a tick under $30K ($29,755 maybe). 1st payment only DAS, $429/mo for 36/10,500. Not terrible for this market, even though the terms aren't great (3.6% interest rate, 58% residual). Doing the math, would cost a lot more to lease and buy out of course.
hopefully whenever I feel like flipping out of it the market cooperates. Just need to get close to the discounted sales price to make it a wash.

Aren't most restorations lucky to get 50 cents returned on every dollar invested?

Refresh my memory….what has Audi said?

S4 - he would not take it to Audi because he bought it used from a BMW dealer and it was close to two years out of warranty (but approx 46k miles IIRC).
I would have taken it to Audi to see if they would give some good will. Now that looks like it would have been an excellent idea with an internally cracked block and downstream parts damaged by metal in oil and coolant.
I guess you live and learn.
Perhaps a media campaign would have done the trick, but I want to get the car fixed sooner rather than "later." For 11 months and 12K+ miles the car was running just fine. It's fully loaded, prestige model, with a good record (no collisions) and is clean. With used car prices right now, made sense to fix it.
I’m going to guess with a cracked block it wasn’t running as well as one might think for as long as one might hope.
The 1970 'ring video that has made the rounds for awhile still takes the cake.

The a/c folks came yesterday and it needs a part to fix it. Again, we lucked out since they have it in their parts warehouse. It'll be fixed tomorrow morning as it's in the 80's here all week. Got down to 68 last night so not that bad. They put more freon in yesterday and said we could use it but be careful. So far, with our ceiling fans, isn't that bad so we're just dealing with it. Home today but going out for the afternoon and then off to work tomorrow. Was asked to work Sunday so said sure, why not.

What’s the difference between a (insert car brand) and a porcupine? A porcupine has the pricks on the outside
Hoovie bought a Shelby GT500. I think I’ve found what I’d flip the ZHP for given unlimited funds.
By the way, I seem to have broken the Jeep out of fuel and oil refresh mode. Got it up to operating temp long enough (about an hour in 20 degree weather).
I had read 30 min drive at operating temp would do it. It has been warm here so it has been working on electric. Who knows though, I had also read it will stay on ICE if cold outside (baby it’s cold outside )
“Hold my beer”. “Watch this”
That’s good. I’ve noticed my Prius seems to take a very long time to reach full operating temperature—much longer than a conventional ICE vehicle. But it produces heat from the HVAC fairly quickly.
