Default then again, i have a very early '01 180q (ATC engine) and it's been quite good....

i've owned it from 40K to 73K... no major problems except for the bizarre propshaft CV joint explosion that happened in the 1st month. I fixed it myself for under $300.

Default srsly.. how does the 3.2 affect the handling versus the smaller engines? and is the quattro worth th

the added weight?

Sure. No front license plate holder either. Audi Sport rear license plate frame.

Default no, there's a 180, 225, and 3.2

the 180 is like every other audi 1.8 and it also comes in a fwd variant. the 225 has stronger internals and a bigger turbo only quattro, and the 3.2 is n/a. 6 cyl

best bang for buck is the 225 Q. chip get's you to you 260-270. all other goodies get you some more and a race gas program with other bolt ons probably gets you near 300 hp.

Default I have an '01 225 which was first delivered in Oct. 2000...

I bought it in Dec. '05 with 15,000 miles. I have since put 22k on it, and my only problem has been the coolant temp sensor (7 dollars). Mine is also fairly well modded, but seems to be a good car.
