Default Damn...people like this make me mad...

A few "highlights" of this car...

1-1989 Audi 100 Quattro with only 69,812 miles!

WOW! a low mile quattro, cool! and only $500 right now!

I read on and:
Transmission: Automatic Engine: 4 - Cyl.

Hmmm...maybe a typo? Automatic quattro? 4 Cyl...yea this guy doesn't know what he's talking about...the engine: 2.0L L4 SOHC 8v CFI WOW! it must be RARE!

Another quote:
"1989 Audi 100 Quattro with only 69,812 miles!!!!!!!! This car is equipped with an automatic transmission, power windows, power locks, and AM/FM radio"

Grrr...as some of you guys may know I'm in the search of another quattro preferably turbo...and this one got me excited...but noooo it's a slushbox "quattro" which we all know isn't possible on Type 44s (except V8)<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=2408714029&amp;cat egory=6055">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=2408714029&amp;cat egory=6055</a</li></ul>

You should be able to tell just by looking that it's not a quattro. First glance shows the 4 lug wheels.

Default Yea I knew it wasn't a quattro at first glance...

it's just that people on eBay don't know what the hell they're selling...the car has no quattro badges anywhere and it has the "regular" 100 rims...BTW the quattros had 4 lug BBSs too on 100's till 91.

Default 4 lugs on type 44 quattro's?

I'm not aware that that any quattro's but the 80/90 style had 4x108 wheels. I thought any type 44 with quattro was 5x112

I see a lot of that on Ebay. There seem to be many people who don't know how to describe a car correctly if their life depended on it. Even if they aren't "car people" anyone with average intelligence should be able to at least read the owner's manual to see what exactly it is they are trying to unload....oops, I mean sell.

Default Looks like just a nice "Garden Variety" 100

Just a nice "Garden Variety" 100. Probably a good family car. Hey...nothing to get mad about. What does a Lexus dealer know about an Audi. Obviously didn't pop the hood to see that it is a 5 cylinder.
