Hey, Mr Angry Corvair,  

I thought maybe this would provide you some inspiration on how to make the plain a$$ white Audi wagon of yours more interesting.  

FB asking just $10k, seems cheap, compared.  

28" rims and a satellite dish on the roof!   You have those tiny a$$ wheels and though you think you've got "tech" you ain't got no satellite dish!

My mother told me if I didn't have anything nice to say I shouldn't say anything at all.

 

But my mother isn't here and that thing is berking clown shoes.

If they gave me 10K with it, I'd be glad to put the poor thing out of its misery.

I can't be the only one to know that AC could pull that off with flair.

Speaking as another Audi wagon owner, I can safely say I'm not inspired. Unless the goal is to inspire one to not make those choices.

Though if I could get a third of that asking price for mine, I'd take it and run.

That is a set of tires and rims and a overland roof rack away from being really cool. I also like the green and gold. Reminds me of a Cadillac a friend had.

That is totally hideous, but those wheels are Dubs and the cheapest 28" floater dubs are $2100/ea. He probably spent over $10k for the wheels and tires on that thing. Good financial planning.

I am certain there is either a Playboy Bunny or pornst*r reference somewhere in that build.

[edit]  Oh, and was it posed in front of that sign on purpose?  As if we couldn't tell.

Oh, because I fell down the rabbit hole on this one, I found a vid from a few years ago where someone did a 'review' on the car. I guess in 2021 it was the 'first ever' A6 wagon on 28" gold floaters. That's all I know because I copied the link and killed it. I almost wanted to skip to the end and see if the owner answered the 'why' question but I'm not that bored yet.

Yeah, I kind of dig the green and gold, too. The rear-aspect picture is kind of cool. The wheels are, I think, way too big; and the grill is really goofy, but the green/gold reminds me of, oh, I don't know... Lexus? Or Toyota? The gold exhaust tips are pretty cool, too. I like the overlander idea, Dean!

edit: I thought I was here to find another of my kind. Another Audi wagon racer! devil

Looks like it pretty much killed the ride quality, raising it up enough to clear those wheels.......I like how you can just make up a name and plaster it all over your car......Magic Boy #5?

She seemed pretty impressed with him too......

This car violated my strict "do not mod the daily" rule. You know there's no way I would NOT daily that.

I haven't raced mine yet. But it may go to an autocross or track day this summer.

Unless it blows up first. You know, normal Audi things.

If I got it for free, I'd drive it around. Just so I can see how many times I hear 'what the berk?' whenever I get out of it.
