seems like there are alot these days....No bids at all...

maybe it's due to the fact that the GT3 is out, and the 996TTs are dropping in prices by...ALOT?

Fongster - You got an S4 too? I'm trying to add another twin turbo to my garage of the Porsche flavor though.

The rep. I heard when I bought my car a year ago was they had nice cars that were slightly overpriced but otherwise good to deal with. 3rd-hand hearsay so take it for what it's worth (probably not a whole lot).

Fongster - I hear you about warranty. Mine is good to 100k miles. AW=ekyub

ESL - You bought from them? They seem legitimate and honest.

No I didn't. They had a white C4S when I was looking and I asked a few people about them. To clarify what I meant to say, the only negative I heard was cars were priced high but the cars were very nice.

This thread might help.

At the current $60,000 price the "reserve" has not yet been met. The reserve is probably set at around $70,000 which would be around market price for a non-local buyer. (another $5k would be spent by the non-local buyer to fly to see the car and then pay to bring it home).

So - it's my guess that people are not bidding because they don't like getting jerked around on Ebay by a dealer who has no intention of letting this car go cheap.

These guys are supposed to be OK. I called
them and they seemed nice a couple of months ago.

I have heard nothing but high regards about the guys at True Speed.I have a close friend who does a lot of work with them and is very satisfied.I spoke with them previous to my purchase and they were very knowledgeable and helpful.When I found my car elsewhere they assisted me with transfer/shipping contacts.They deal in clean cars and know what they are worth.As they are located in a very affluent area there is typically not a problem selling quality exotics at top market prices.

Theres definatley alot of Audi drivers on rennlist. I drive a 1.8T quattro. Its definatley no S4, but its still alot of fun none the less.
Have you guys been to Audizine.com. Its a really good site. The overall layout is much better than Audiworld(another audi forum).

Try Audilife.com. A friend owns/runs that one.
