The writing is on the wall that it's getting close to time to sell the " Fast Taxi " I'm not in a hurry but will entertain offers from serious parties. I will try and describe the car as best as possible, if you have a question though, please ASK either here or via PM. With that said:

2003 Audi Rs6:addict:
97,xxx miles as of 4/2/2011
Imola Yellow ( 1 of 3 known )
Black Interior
Carbon Fiber Trim

NEW OEM front rotors w. EBC Red pads w/i last 30 days
Motul 660 Brake flush performed at the same time
SS Brake Lines
Phaeton Cooling Ducts installed
Wagner Intercoolers :hahahehe:
Stasis Sport fully adjustable coil overs :incar:
OEM Sport Enhanced Exhaust -or- 3" straight pipes ( your choice ) :music:
70k Timingbelt Service w/ waterpump, t-stat, etc last replaced at 70,xxx miles
Matching set of tires less than 30 days old
SS Racing pedal overlay's
Revo Software w/ SPS :revs:
H-SPort Rear Swaybar
Sportec Splash Shield Update
Updated OEM Transmission, TC, and MTM TCU Upgrade
Upper and Lower Control Arm kit replaced w/ CV Boots inner and outer

I have driven this car at the Texas Mile to 170mph , I have crossed the front straight at Texas Motor Speedway in excess of 157mph ( GPS confirmed ) , as well as several DE Events. While I have driven this car to it's true potential, I also have had the means to keep up with the service needs. I have also had an extended warranty the entire time as well. ( This means if the car needed something between having my own shop and/or extended warranty , it has been addessed ) :mech:

This is a driver's car, that has 97,xxx miles on the odometer, it's NOT a garage queen. You may pick this car up and drive it across the United States without worrying if you'll make it. You could adjust the suspension and do the Gumball 3000 coming up and IMO have a chance at winning, or, you could buy it just for the bragging rights that you have 1 of the 3 Imola Yellow Rs6's known in the United States!


Points that may be discussed:
1. I can get a Protective extended warranty for the new owner if purchased prior to 100k Miles.
2. I will complete the 35k Service for cost if you want to do it in advance prior to taking delivery of the car.
3. Delivery of car within the United States
4. I have a second set of OEM Rs6 wheels w. yoko Advan A048 installed 50% tread left
4. Sales Price is open to discussion - this is not a fire sale though
5. I can provide new owner with another Yellow Cab Co sticker kit in case you want to earn some extra money! :hihi:

## Disclaimer: The car was in a rear end accident over 2 years ago and was repaired by Detail's Ltd in Addison Texas using new OEM parts. This may or may not show up in a CarFax report. I have pictures of the actual damage for serious buyers IF this is a concern ##:doh:

# SOLD #

Local Buyer ( Dallas Texas ) Great guy, really loves performace cars, knows his stuff! I pondered the sale to someone out of town so that I wouldn't see my " Ex " driving around... but in the end the best possible buyer came along. I consider him a personal friend , who, as I found out, lives across the lake from me.

So, I will still get to see the car when it comes in for Service from time to time, and if things go the way he wants to I'll see it really take a jump in performance. ( Read: VAST Performance 800hp kit )

There was a yellow one for sale a year or so ago and the ad said it was the yellow one in the US. I guess he was wrong. (?)
