110,466 MILES | GRAY ON BLACK | QUATTRO AWD | CLEAN CARFAX | NO ACCIDENTS
Okay... BEFORE SOMEBODY ASKS WHY IT'S SO CHEAP... We're going to do something apparently revolutionary in the used-car business. TELL YOU EXACTLY WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. Ready? IT NEEDS A MOTOR!!! There. Elephant addressed. No song. No dance. No "it just needs a sensor." No "probably an easy fix." No "my mechanic said..." PLAN ON AN ENGINE. Either: A. GET A REPLACEMENT MOTOR. or
B. GET A VERY GOOD AUDI TECH TO DETERMINE WHETHER THIS ONE CAN BE REBUILT. That's it. THAT'S WHY IT'S CHEAP.

NOW LOOK AT WHAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY BUYING. 2012 Audi Q5 2.0T Quattro Premium
110,466 miles. Gray on black. Quattro AWD. Clean Carfax. No accidents. It's a practical AWD Audi SUV with a clean history... AND ONE VERY LARGE MECHANICAL PROBLEM. We're not hiding it. We're pricing it.

QUATTRO. Yup. AWD. Need something for New Jersey winters? Perfect. Rain? Snow? Bad weather? Quattro is exactly why people buy these. Of course... FIRST YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE ENGINE RUN. Details.

GRAY ON BLACK. Exactly how you want a daily-driver Audi. Gray exterior. Black interior. Clean. Simple. Easy to live with. Nothing ridiculous. THE ONLY DRAMA IS UNDER THE HOOD. And unlike some sellers... We're telling you about that drama BEFORE you show up.

CLEAN CARFAX? YUP. No accidents? YUP. Quattro AWD? YUP. Does it run? NOPE. Well... Three out of four ain't bad.

WHY IS IT SO CHEAP
I can already see the messages. "Is the price real?" YES. "What's wrong with it?" ENGINE. "Does it run?" NO. "Can I drive it home?" ALSO NO. "Why are you selling it this cheap?" BECAUSE IT NEEDS AN ENGINE. See? No detective work required.

WE DON'T GIVE YOU A SONG AND DANCE. That's the whole point. We're not going to make you drive two hours, show up, fall in love with it and THEN casually mention: "Oh yeah... there's one little thing." THE LITTLE THING IS A MOTOR. We're putting it right here. In giant letters. Before you call. Before you visit. Before anybody wastes anybody's time. REAL CAR. REAL PROBLEM. REAL PRICE.

WHO SHOULD BUY THIS? Audi technician? COME GET IT. Independent European shop? Perfect. Mechanic looking for a project? Here you go. Already have access to a compatible engine? EVEN BETTER. Know an Audi tech who can properly diagnose the existing motor and determine whether rebuilding makes sense? Now we're talking. Looking for a turnkey Q5 to drive home tonight? KEEP SCROLLING. This isn't that car.

THE PRICE IS THE OPPORTUNITY. If we installed an engine... Got everything sorted... And handed you the keys to a running Q5... GUESS WHAT? You wouldn't be paying this price. You're buying the problem. But you're also buying the discount. THAT'S THE TRADE. Our loss. Your opportunity.

AND NO — WE'RE NOT DIAGNOSING IT THROUGH FACEBOOK. We're selling it as a NON-RUNNING vehicle that needs engine work. Could the existing motor potentially be rebuilt? That's for a qualified Audi technician to determine after inspecting it. Could replacing the engine be the smarter route? Possibly. DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Bring your mechanic. Inspect it. Diagnose it. Price the repair. Then make your decision.

THE MARUTI WAY
No recon fees. No prep fees. No games. Advertised price includes the $499 dealer fee. Tax and DMV excluded. And on this one especially: NO GAMES. It needs a motor. We told you. The price reflects it. COME SEE IT FOR YOURSELF.

Want a turnkey Q5? WRONG AD. Know how to fix Audis? RIGHT AD. The problem isn't hidden. The price isn't pretending the problem doesn't exist.

IS WHY THE PRICE IS SO CHEAP!!!
