Re: Audi Coupe GT
As an Audi owner, that is a good deal. Replacement parts are $$$, but
the 85 shares many parts of the VW Quantum GL5 (I had one of these,
nice car, pre-runner to Passat), so instead of going to the Audi
dealer tell your parts guy its a VW Quantum. Things to look for;
Bad Power Windows mechanism ($150 minimum to fix)
If it has a Brake Bomb (this keeps consitant pedal feel $700)
don't think 85 had it) the tech name
is brake pedal pressure accumulator)
Radiator/Heater Core
Exhaust System ($400)
Heater Contols (???)
Leaky Water Pumps
<Fuel Filter never replaced?? with badly corroded fuel lines>!!!

I was driving around at lunch today and at some off the wall little car
lot I saw an 85 Audi Coupe GT in really good condition. And they only
wanted $2650.00 can you believe that...I wonder if there is a bigger
problem. I know that the used retail of Audi's are extremely low due to
the high cost of replacement parts. This car was nice...red (bright),
black vinyl seats (boo...I liked the grey cloth ones better), terribly
worn out shocks, but sounded nice.
