'95 was the first year for mandated passenger airbags. It also happens to be the best year of the Gen1 Q45.
A simple ecu reflash will get you a 7,400 rpm redline to the 4.5L V8 engine. Some say that will be good for 320 hp and the auto trans will actually go all the way to 7,400 if you keep the pedal down. Rear drive with factory limited slip.
wait, you haven't bought the phaeton yet? that thing looks awesome.
Interesting. That ad wasn't up when I was searching.
But I've pretty much decided another sporty car won't solve my problems.
Okay, left field time!
How about a class B RV? Fits wherever a van fits. Race ready? It'll tow your race car! No bathroom at your garage? No problem - you've brought your own!
That thing is sweet.
2007+ Volvo S80 V8 with a nice exhaust and a rear sway bar.
They sound goooooood with an exhaust starts at the 1:00 mark
Edit: and you can't get much safer than a Volvo
Just throwing it out there as a possibility: my '01 740i Sport with all the work done to it is an excellent daily driver and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it across country. But there's a low mileage 740i Sport I want REALLY bad that a friend owns. He'll sell it to me for much less than the asking price ($11,500 is asking), but I still need to sell mine first. So I'm going to take a slight loss and offer to sell it for $7000, including MD inspection. But only to someone who will love it like I do. Yeah, it's not in Chicago, but... And if he sells his first, I'm not selling.
I vote Phaeton, you already have sports cars and sounds like you just need something to haul everyone around. That looks like a lot of car (5,000 pounds worth) for the money. The V8 is the Audi unit, so should be reliable in that regard with only 113k miles on it. You won't find a Bentley for that kind of money
