Default In your ad, you say it's just like the Ronin car. It isn't. Ronin was green/tan, pre-1998 model....

Pre-facelift model... Notice amber side indicators and lack of bumper fog lights and early-style S8 wheels.

Notice the Audi badge on molding. This was removed in model year 1998 and above, so the Ronin car is a 1997 or earlier model.

Notice the interior. Standard tan, comfort package seats, 4-spoke pre-98 steering wheel and black dash, which in facelift cars was converted to a darker brown shade to lessen the contrast.

Hope that helps

Default That's not my ad.

Don't know the seller, just happened upon the ad and noticed that except for the mileage and seats, the car identical to mine.
