Well, there was just a low mileage 82k (stock) one in the city (ny) on autotrader for ~ $15k.  I just looked and the ad is gone now though.
 
Good luck - hope you can get your money out of it and parts back.

Greetings Fellow S//folk

I am really bummed. A couple of Sundays ago, a minivan driven by an
individual whose head was deeply inserted into his posterior orifice
attempted to make a left turn from the far right lane, crossing 4  lanes of
traffic before the intersection. Unfortunately, I was going straight in the
left lane. In spite of my (and the 4 pot AP brakes) best efforts, his rear
driver's side bumper corner hit my passenger headlight, doing enough damage
to total the car. I was in the car with my wife and two kids, everybody is
fine, and I am thankful for that.

I cannot express with enough sarcasm what a joy it has been dealing with
insurance company reps, cops, body shops (the car was initially deemed
fixable, until the shop opened up the hood, and found the radiator came into
contact with the spinny engine bits) in New York.

So now I'm reaching out to the list for any info on recent purchases of 95.5
Avants. Especially Europa ones with 90K miles full RS2 (EM, Turbo,
Injectors, MAF, 3bar software, Samcos, Hyperboost BPV, Eibach/bilstein, rear
torsen diff, Stromung) as mine was equipped. I am trying to work with the
adjuster to establish the car's value based on past sales. I understand
there is a registry that was compiled with this purpose in mind, but I could
not locate any reference to this on the s-car site. Any help, or friendly
advice would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

Serge Filanovsky

95.5 S6 Dead Avant
