Default Before you go diving in...

Did you Carfax it?
Was the 40k maintenance service performed?
How much rubber is left on the tires?
Has the original MAF been replaced?

It's a great looking car, but for everything I listed above here you're looking for at least $1700 in upkeep, tires, and MAF replacement(01's were prone to failure)...unless you're doing it all yourself, then it's probably only $1200. If anything, be sure to use these as negotiators. You should get at least $2k knocked off the top.

Default do a carfax report and see if you can get the dealer where it was serviced>>>

that way you can see the service records...but it looks to be a hit ;-)

Default hiTT iTT

My 2001 TTQC was $18,900 stock, with 41k miles, a year ago, at a dealer (non-Audi).

I still have a timing belt replacement coming up.

If you can get the carfax, and the dealer service records look ok, it sounds like the deal to take.

why would someone do a timing belt at 39k miles and then sell at 39k miles?

Default Hit. The Neuspeed exhaust has a beautiful sound to it.
