View Full Version : what do y'all think of the 5k platform? coupe d'mike 10-03-2005, 10:05 AM i'm looking at a 5k wagon for a winter beater. it's turbo, how much power can i get out of it cheaply? the coupe needs a bit of work to get her ready for the ski season, it may be better to let it sit in the parents yard and rack up miles on something i don't care about. |skolnick 10-03-2005, 10:10 AM Just-Emre 10-03-2005, 10:12 AM OWDLVR 10-03-2005, 10:13 AM The 4000's were phenominally built cars. The 5000's were terrible. Electrical nightmares, front suspension issues, etc. etc. -Dave AudiSport4000 10-03-2005, 10:20 AM coupe d'mike 10-03-2005, 10:36 AM need something to keep the mileage off the coupe. having trouble finding a clean 4kq in the nyc area. OWDLVR 10-03-2005, 10:50 AM Let me put it to you this way, I have NEVER driven a _good_ 5ktq unless the owner has admitted to me beforehand that they probably have spent more time/money on the car then it is worth. -Dave quattro.pilot 10-03-2005, 10:54 AM |skolnick 10-03-2005, 10:55 AM quattro.pilot 10-03-2005, 10:57 AM 4Driver4 10-03-2005, 11:49 AM The type 44's are showing their age. <zips up flame suit> koupekrazy 10-03-2005, 02:17 PM great idea about 15-20 years ago, waaay over engineered and none of them have been maintained proporly. soo, having been a 5k owner (i shudder at the thought) and mechanic my sugestion is a BIG NO |
