100 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To celebrate my 100th post, here are a few images my friend GOOGLE supplied, in no particular order, and with a few cut and paste comments from wherever I pull them.

To start with, one I did not know existed, obviously the same type of thing as mine (badge engineered Passat) 1978 Audi 100.

"Audi 5000 : To leave rapidly. The '80s 5000 was badged Audi 100 over here and got a warm reception, but in the States it was sucked into lawsuit hell when owners complained of sudden, unprompted bursts of acceleration. Turned out they just weren't used to the European closeness of the brake and accelerator pedal, but that didn't stop the expression from taking off. Correct usage is thus: "When she showed me her stuffed toy collection, I was Audi 5000." Falling out of use. "

Quattro all-wheel-drive (Torsen center and locking rear diff)
Pearl Effect White Metallic (0A9)
Graphite leather (M79-NX)
15" pearl BBS wheels
Bose sound system

General History
This car was originally purchased by my grandfather in Spring 1991. I "inherited" it in November 1998 when he purchased his 1999 A8. This was my second car.

It has not been in any accidents, although it apparently was damaged in transit prior to being delivered, and it looks like the passenger side front door was repainted and the window may have been replaced. It's a good match, however, because nobody noticed it for more than a decade. Also, the underside of the right edge of the front bumper was repainted by my grandfather after it was scratched. It looks fine from a distance, but up close (if you get on your hands and knees) it looks pretty bad.

I added the European headlights in April 2002, the Chinese-market (Audi 100 Sport style) front clear corner lights in March 2003, and the Custom Auto Craft V8 (Luxembourg-style) tail lights in April 2003.

Mechanically and physically, the car is in great shape. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the car, other than minor chips (and minor dings) in the body, to be expected on a car of its age.

And finaly.....

Just for kicks:

I like this.
