Default bought a new beater today :)
got it for 2300 out the door. it was a new car trade in at my work. its a 1998 T/A A4 car. 139k on the clock. Black on charcoal leather interior. figured i needed something better on gas than the tahoe

sorry for the shitty quality pics

It still amazes me what people trade in and get nothing for from a dealership.
I have stopped friends before from trading **** in and just selling outright and they were amazed at what they got in just a few days versus what a dealership offered.
I understand dealerships need to make money too but jesus man they give you nothing for trade-ins lol.

Anyways nice find that is going to be a sweet daily driver.
