Find of the Day: 2003 Audi S6 Avant

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="68956"] words: Bill, photos: Chris Mangold What is it about wagons that have gripped enthusiasts but not the general auto-buying population? Perhaps it's due to very lackluster wagons out there and the stigma of a mom-bus that soured prospective buyers but some companies fought back including Audi. Stuffing V8s into wagons has been around for years but Audi seem to have hit the sweet spot with the C5 S6 Avant. That fabulous 4.2 growl and ta...

We also got Tom's take on Le Mans 2023 and Audi's return. "Mr. Le Mans" is published by Euro Publishing. It can be found...

Audi Club Sweepstakes Upgrade: RECARO Expert Seats for that Sport quattro Cockpit Look

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="68416"] ENTER SWEEPSTAKES HERE One of the unique aspects of the 1985 Audi quattro procured for the grand prize of Audi Club North America’s Spring 2022 Sweepstakes is that its original seats had been replaced at some point with more bolstered units from RECARO.

Upgrade: Porsche Classic Single DIN Radio for Our ur quattro 20V

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="68214"] There’s a challenge most purchasing a new-to-them 80s car like our Audi Club Sweepstakes 1985 ur quattro 20V can attest, and that’s the challenge of audio. With a brightly lit and colorful head CD player, our quattro’s audio system looks period incorrect for our car, and we needed a change. For that we turned to Audi’s brand sibling Porsche. Cars of the 80s had both less-than-stellar sound and a nearly universal-sized single-DIN...
