Got t-boned yesterday, my car is a total loss.
Might as well get an avant, right?
LMK what you have.
Preference given to ones in clean shape and good repair over wildly modified.
Black interior only, exterior negotiable.
Thanks guys!!

Sorry to hear man, sucks to get hit. Hope your feeling okay, spinal injuries suck.

Thanks guys, I'm pretty bummed.
Missing work can be an expensive proposition, not to mention having to undertake an international search for the right replacement.
As it is, I'm sure this sick and twisted crew of gear heads will point me in the right direction

Don't buy the red one in Seattle area. Rumored to need lots of work and strange seller.

Had a quick look back at FS threads, seems $6k-$8k is reasonable?

I'd expect to pay more like $7-10k for a clean, well-sorted avant.
I know of one that may be for sale. Will send you an email shortly.

Hmmm, a no motor chassis could be a tough cross border project... and I still don't yet know if the motor in the sedan is salvageable. Hope so, since I just dealt with the timing belt.

http://audifans.com/afmktplc/index.php?page=item&id=721Seen this one yet? Looks rusty but may be worth looking into. The one from QW looks nice though.

Yes, thanks!
We've been in touch before about a possible swap.
Ive since contacted him again.
A bit leery of the mileage...

The rust scares me, but I am spoiled out here in CA.
