Having been driving the A8 the past year, my son and I both can vouch for 
why the V8 is in some ways a cooler ride. 
Certainly feels more sportier &that engine sound. We had the '93 drove to 
the wrecker with no real major issues 'cept leaks got $250. 
After a couple of Volvo R's I paid $7500 US for a virtually mint A8L, 2004, 
cam belt just done. 
All I have done to it, in one year, is to replace the original factory 
battery. 

A8's are $5K + 
V8's are $5k -

Out of the blue, I have received an inquiry about my car. The person 
writing is referencing the eBay listing I had of my car when I tried to 
sell it in 2013. After the eBay auction failed to produce anything 
remotely of interest in terms of money, I put the car in the garage and 
left it there until December of last year when I took it out, registered 
it and have been driving it since. I am about ready to put the car back 
in the garage until next spring. 

Strangely enough two days prior to my receiving this email inquiry, I 
had a conversation with my mechanic about both of our Audis and another 
conversation with a specialty car broker I know very well about the same 
thing. Then this guy writes out of the blue and after seeing pictures 
of the car wants to know my price. 

Right now, I have NO idea what I might "let it go for" as he put it. 
Having said that this isn't a bad time to sell it, as it will be put 
into hibernation mode in December and not emerge from its den until as 
late as May first, weather depending. At the same time, the 1994 Audi 
100 is really going to have to have some body restoration done and there 
are some other things I would like to do to the car, which is what I was 
discussing with the wrench. EVERYone I have discussed the matter with 
has said that the investment in the 100 Avant is simply not worth the 
money, and I am slowly swinging around to thinking that way myself. 
Perhaps this is REALLY the time for my wife and I to do the 
"intelligent" thing and go down to one car and make that one car 
something much newer. 

Soooo.....since everyone on the list by now has some good idea of what a 
realistic price to ask for what is a very nice 1990 Audi V8 (around 
100,000 miles). I'll ask you: what do you think is a realistic asking 
price for my car? 

Thanks, 

Roger
