Vehicle Detail

This is a 2007 B7 Audi RS4 in Avus Silver with an ivory leather interior with black piping and the Premium Package and almost 64,000 miles that was originally an Audi corporate fleet vehicle used by a senior executive living in a $3m house - the home address on the navigation before I acquired it. Since being in-service, it was pampered every few K miles…probably each time it was at a dealership - multiple oil changes, spark plugs, etc. I originally purchased the car certified pre-owned, from an Audi dealership in New Jersey. I was meant to keep it forever, so I spent months looking for the right car in the right condition. I am selling because my new job entails an abundance of travel – I now barely use the car at all which is a crying waste. It is accident free with 90% highway miles. All maintenance since was done at Winner Audi in Wilmington, DE and it was garaged both at work and at home. Note the full set of pictures were taken across different days – hence the pictures have different lighting and shadows. Email me if you have questions. I try to describe all my auctions and listings accurately and you will have confidence in your purchase as I have over 518+ feedback at 100% over 10 years. This listing only has a handful of pictures. Access all the images and a walkthrough of the vehicle here: picasaweb.google.com/crashingmarkets There’s a good number of shots from a great number of angles and perspective. Many are of parts of the vehicle that are overlooked as well to illustrate the level of cleanliness and detail throughout. If you would like to preview it in person, please do email me to set something up in either of Philadelphia, PA 19147 or Wilmington, DE 19802. Understand though that I am unable to go any further due to added mileage to the vehicle. The market? Not that many around...definitely not as available as the BMWs. At July’s end, there were over 75 M3's on ebay and about 550 on cars.com. As for RS4s, there were 5 on eBay and 28 on cars.com.

If you are inclined negotiate and agree to a price, please email me through eBay messaging to discuss. eBay allows closing an auction up to 12 hours before the auction end time. In this case, sellers may offer the vehicle to any ebay member at a predetermined price. As long as your purchase is through ebay, you’ll be protected by their VPP Vehicle Protection Program. If you don’t already have an eBay account, setting one up is easy. Both the buyer and seller’s ebay accounts just need to have a feedback rating of zero or above on the listing’s end date and the accounts should be in good standing and not suspended. In the event that you are unable to see the car prior to purchasing, you may use eBay’s recommended inspection company SGS to have an ‘InspectMyRide’ done. This service looks the car over on your behalf. They have a network across the country, the cost is $129 and the 150-point inspection reports are available within 24 hours of the completed inspection. If you arrange this a reasonable time before the auction's end at a location near me, I will gladly have it done. Check eBay for details. There should be a 'Order an independent inspection' link on the right column of the listing. Incidentally as well, if you are unable to pickup the car, eBay Motors also provides buyers a service to arrange shipping in the ‘Shipping Center’ of the auction page where you can get an instant online quote. They now even offer financing, which most probably don’t need, and that is available through their Finance Center. Buyers are responsible for all state, county, and city taxes/fees. Service History since its CPO acquisition July 2009:Castrol oil topped up intermittently between servicing since these FSI RS engines are a little oil hungry. 2009 Sept at 33,730 miles35,00 mile serviceOil filter, air filterBoth front wheel bearing assemblies replaced 2009 Sept at 34,028 milesLeft rear hydraulic line for strut replacedCross-bled DRC systemNew battery terminal cover 2010 Feb at 41,960 miles45,000 mile serviceFront and rear brake pads and sensors replaced 2010 June at 48,250 milesNew Yokohama AVS all-season tires installed on front wheelsAll tires mounted and balanced 2010 Sept at 53,654 milesNew Yokohama AVS all-season tires installed on rear wheelsAll tires mounted and balancedCenter armrest replacement installed 2010 December at 58, 974 miles55,000 mile serviceReplaced spark plugs, air and pollen filters, battery test, oil and filter change, scanned for faults 2011 FebDRC Dynamic Ride Control recall for RS4 completed. It involved the entire DRC system which meant replacement of the shock absorbers, dampeners, central valves, et al. That’s a day or two in the shop, sometimes more. Details: Window Tint and Front full paint protection 3M polyurethane film installed across the front of the hood, entire front bumper cover, side mirrors, headlights and driving lights. The film has some age appropriate wear - but everything on the front end has been protected since day 1. The blemishes seen in the pictures are on the film, not the paint. Once worn enough to replace, probably another couple of years, a company like Shades of Gray in Pennsylvania are great. They installed the window tint for me and use VentureShield paint protection film which is 100% clear, laser cut and will not fade or yellow. Side Mirrors: The driver's side film has a couple of chatter marks on it but on close inspection, the mirror housing is intact. Waiting to replace the entire front end film together for a perfect match. Passenger Side Mirror is in perfect condition. 19 inch rims with Yokohama AVS all-season tires are on all four corners. Tires are all at about 60-70% tread remaining. Front rims are in great condition, rear rims have some wear appropriate with a pre-owned vehicle. Front Driver rim is excellent, Front Passenger rim is excellent, Rear Driver rim is fair, Rear Passenger rim is fair. Upgraded brakes to Centric Posi-Quiets which have less dust, no screeching, great bite. Interior:Front Driver’s Seat: Good condition. Slightly more wear, where the outside edge of the seat and back have some crease marks, a good leather restorer can fix that, and a little surface chatter. Some pictures throws a shadow and exaggerates the creases. The back of the seat has a little indentation, see picture, from when it was lowered when something was still underneath it. No discoloration or tears, just a dimple which will even out over time.Front Passenger Seat: Perfect. Barely used at all. No marks or scuffs on it.Rear Seats: Good to great condition. Even less used. Passenger side seat has some surface chatter on the leather, likely from a jeans button. See pictures, it is not obvious unless you are close up, and it is a surface imperfection, not a tear. Paint is in fair condition: Front hood wear is mostly on the paint protection film, there are no major stone chips or dings on the paintworkFront driver quarter panel has a 6 inch line from a shopping cart on top of the paint protection film. Have not addressed this in order to keep the original paint and remove any ambiguity from ‘repainted’ panels. Not noticeable unless looking for it as it is near the fold line for the quarter panelDoors are all in perfect condition – always securely parked where possible. Rear bumper has 2 slight blemishes in the middle from other vehicles license plate screws from one of the few times it is parked in a full public parking lot. Horizontal scuff line towards the bottom of the bumper cover has been buffed out, can only see remnants of it at certain angles Questions I have been asked. Please feel free to email if you have others and forgive my non-technical terminology: Servicing history available?Winner Audi has serviced the vehicle since I took it over in 2009. History for the work done on the vehicle is available and will be provided. It is also noted in the body for the description above. Has the carbon clean been done?All Audi FSI engines have carbon build-up. This car has not had a carbon clean done as it has not needed it. Long story short, they are done if and when you lose a noticeable amount of top-end power or it is specifically requested by an owner. Most cars (like Q7s who are notorious for build-up) don’t require it as long as there is no power loss. My Audi tech confirms this and also noted that if that power loss ever became a recurring and more common issue, it would be dealt with through their voluntary re-call process. Any previous gasket leaks?None. Gasket leaks would inevitably leave rust and discoloring on the metal parts around the gaskets. See pictures, there are no signs of leaks or odd discoloration. Was there ever any food/drink spillage?Never had food in the car. Only capped drinks in the vehicle. Nothing has ever been spilled. You’ll see from the carpet and upholstery. Ownership, Title & Registration status?I am financed by Audi Finance, and there is still a partial balance on it. There should be no problems having the title and registration transferred quickly once they receive the payoff. We have up to 30 days to have the title released and re-titled to you. The car is titled in Delaware, thus only a rear-license plate is needed. An original front filler plate is on the car, so there is no ugly front plate bracket.
