All i have to say is give it a month and you will be askin for you CL back, ps, make good friends w/ your local Audi God, cuz if not you are going to be paying an arm and leg. Good luck w/ the 300hp though....

just curious, what has been done to the audi that gives it 300 to the wheels? stock that car has 150 crank hp, shit the 2.8 only has 170 crank hp. does it have a massively upgraded turbo/headers/exhaust/tune?

I feel you man. I had it bad for Audi A4's back in the day. I don’t know what it is, but I love em . I would have gotten one but what I was looking for was not in my price range. That and the cost of maintenance and insurance as stated above. I'm happy with my CL though, glad I bought it.

Hey, your young. Get the car, if it doesn’t work out, its a lesson learned.

i guess i just don't see how a more expensive car with serious mods(because it would take some serious work to get 300 to the wheels of a 1.8t) make more financial sense than your CL. Unless it had a salvaged title or something, isn't the audi more expensive than a CL?
whatever makes you happy man, I would have to say my first love would have been the Rx-7(FD), but maintenance prevents me from getting that bitch.
hurry up with the dyno lol gl with the car

105,000 with a turbo. if they are going cheap on you,then i would rethink about the turbo with that many mileage. don't let them fool you and let them say that they only used it for about 10000 miles

well guys i just got back from jersey test driving the audi.....the car was amazing and was in immaculate shape for high milage. but i decided to come back without it because of maintenace and other things like that....so im going to be the market still and hopeing to pick up a 2.3 or 2.2 cl manual tranny so i can put my h22 to use. let me know whats for sale..i dont care if it has high milage it just needs to be rust free and the frame in good shape and mods idc whats done to it unless its gay....and lets set the price under 7000 LET ME KNOW!!!

i saw a couple good used CL's at dealerships in jersey while i was researching and trying to find one to buy. If you're willing to drive out to jerz again, i saw a couple really clean titanium metallic ones under 7K

There's a 2.3 up in warrendale not far from best buy you should check out. I'm not sure if it's auto or manual, but it's worth a look.

You know you could save a lot on insurance by switching to Geico...

Good choice on the Audi. No way I would buy an Audi with that many miles.
