Certainly not Grassroots $$$, but we are selling her car. Here is a link to the FB ad.
2015 Audi S3 Launch Edition with 55,700 miles. One-owner, female owned, boringly driven(she's a CPA), kept in a heated garage, cleaned/detailed way too often and 1000% stock. The only thing not original are the tires, brake rotors/pads and Weathertech mats. I also have a set of winter wheels/tires/lugs, BBS wheels with Michelin X-Ice tires purchased from Tire Rack.
The Launch Edition was a limited edition of 350 cars worldwide. They have Daytona Grey pearl metallic paint, Magma red/black interior, 19" wheels, magnetic suspension, LED lighting and red powder coated calipers.
Located in northeast PA.
$27,500, but looking for a quick sale as her new car has arrived.
Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any and all questions.
Nice car - not in market but if I was.......
So what's the next one?
Northeast PA? How is the rust situation?
Super nice cars. If you can find a downpipe anymore and get the stage 2 tune they are beast.
I keep this thing as clean as is humanly possible. There is some surface on the leading edge of the drivers side rear wheel well that I need to touch up, but nothing underneath. Total disclosure, I did throw it on the lift last fall and shoot some "chassis black" spray paint on some of the suspension components which has surface rust on them. Also the rear swaybar was peeling and I painted that too. I keep up on cleaning the cars underneath as well as on top.
I have an undercarriage washing attachment for the pressure washer and a hot water hose bib in the garage which I use all winter on all the vehicles to keep them clean. It's really a great idea for those who live in these salt-infested climates. Our last 6 vehicles all received this treatment throughout the winter and it really helps. My 2005 Tundra had 274,000 miles and I still waxed the rockers! The Ram had 132,000 and did the same.
Ram rockers and frame.
Toyota rockers.
She is replacing it with something WAY a less fun, but it is her decision. After trying to get her to buy a small SUV when we built our house and had a long gravel driveway, she finally decided to do it. Unfortunately we paved the driveway last fall and now she can easily drive her beloved 4-door German sedan up and down the driveway with no issues. I told her that she did it backwards as far as the timing/decision making process goes, but what do I know?
Anyway, her new 2022 Mercedes Benz GLC300 Coupe finally arrived. We ordered it back in early October and a short 6 months later it hit the dealership. It's Diamond Pearl white with red/black interior and AMG-line package with the staggered 20" wheels and big brakes. I couldn't convince her that the AMG 43 or 63 version was a good financial decision for resale value like I was able to when buying the Audi S3 vs A3. Doesn't matter as it's a really good looking truck/SUV/cross-over/station wagon or whatever it's called.
Picking it up tomorrow, so I foresee a long night in the garage clay-barring the whole thing and ceramic coating it. Fun times.

Nice car - my buddy works at Tortoise Wacks and he cleaned/clay barred his new car and he told me how shockingly bad it was. This guy know wax too.
