Hey folks.. First time poster - I am looking into purchasing a 2005 audi a4 from a private seller. He is calling it an ultra sport (which I want) but the carfax report is calling it a 2005 AUDI A4 1.8T QUAT/SPEC EDIT.

I have not seen the car except in pictures.
I know the ultra sport came with 18in rims, and the spec edit w/ the 17 inch rims. So if he is truthful and it has stock 18 it must be the ultrasport.. but carfax is calling it a spec edit?

His description = [2005 A4 1.8T quattro ultrasport package in the dolphin grey exterior with black leather interior. Car Has all options except the cold weather package and the bose stereo. Has the lighting package and the premium package and the ultrasport package. 18 inch ultrasport rims]

How can you tell the diff between a ultrasport and spec edit?
Also, if it is a special edition.. what I am really losing from the ultrasport? The suspension tuning?

Car in Question

Thanks

 

register the vin number at audiusa.com in the "my audi" section, it will tell you all the options of the car installed at the factory....

 

yes it is a ULTRA SPORT the rear bumper, door blades, and wheels prove it
since it has all the options but cold weather its better then a SE casue its an ultra sport which is just hte sports package wit the same suspension and items excpet u get a more aggressive lookin front and rear bumper, 18 wheels, door blades, lip spoiler, basicly its just a sports package wit a bodykit

supposedly there is a section where you can view all the details of the car's options (i have a 96 and the service starts for 98s i believe, so i can't tell you exactly where the info can be seen)

 

jstrebel...........let us know how the deal goes! Love the color combination (that's ebony interior..right?) Plus, it would be nice to have another B6 owner!!!!

Bent.....I'm telling you i'm on a mission to get more B6 owner's then B5's!!!!!!!!!

 

wanna hear the kicker.. guy is throwing in 19in rims.. and stage 1 APR chip.. What would you pay?
2005 quattro 6M 5800 miles.

 

$30k

 

good I am gettinga deal for $29 then

 

that is definitely a deal, i was giving a low estimate...blue book isn't available yet, but i would say it's probably worth 33+
