1984 AUDI GT COUPE
VIN: WAUBD0855EA126008
208,334 MILES
“What I love most about the Coupe GT is its maturity. If this Audi were a person, it would be a successful professional in their early thirties, would be in great shape, and would have their head screwed on straight. This car doesn't know from theatrics. It just gets the job done better than a hot knife cuts through butter.
The GT is one of those special cars that are almost unflappable. It eats rocky pavement for breakfast. It loves to sprint through the gears. But it's a true German on the highway—which is to say, cool and collected when the speedo needle points to the big numbers. And just for good measure, the GT is always ready to play.
Like its stablemates from Audi AG, the GT is a pleasantly mechanical car. The tires thump on expansion strips, the motor hums contentedly, the shifter notches into each gear. The GT seems to say, "Hey, it's just me down here doing my job."
There's a lot to be said for steadiness in cars as well as in people. As a matter of fact, if the GT were a person, I'd want it as a friend.”
—Rich Ceppos - Car and Driver magazine
This rare, tastefully styled, collectible 2 door coupe remains attractive today, forty years after it was produced. The car is finished in black with a contrasting light tan interior. Importantly, the car can seat four passengers comfortably, due to the full rear seat. Actually, Audi called this a five seater because they installed three sets of seat belts in the rear. It is powered by a 2.2 liter five cylinder engine connected to a close ratio five speed manual transmission. The engine runs smoothly, and the transmission and clutch operate as they should. It will accelerate from 0-60 mph in 8.3 seconds and will get 27.3 miles per gallon of gasoline. The car is equipped with power brakes (discs in the front and drums in the rear), MacPherson front struts, lower A-arms, front and rear anti roll bars. It has a large sunroof, air conditioning and an upgraded Sony sound system with Sirius XM. Attractive aftermarket TSW 16” wheels add to the car’s handsome appearance while the slightly used 205/50ZR 16 B.F. Goodrich G Force Comp 2 tires enhance its cornering abilities.
The odometer reads 208,344 miles. Despite its high mileage, this 1984 Audi GT Coupe drives excellently. It has been well maintained and driven conservatively. Recent service includes replacing the brake master cylinder, replacing the sunroof seal, correcting rough idle, replacing worn suspension bushings, ball joints, CV boot, performing a wheel alignment, repairing inoperative power windows and replacing the fuel hose.
The vehicle has had three owners. The current owner purchased the car in 2020 and drove it sparingly. The body is in excellent condition with no visible rust. The paint, however, is delaminating on the hood and roof and there are numerous paint chips. The interior shows well, although the driver seat cushion has a crack on the bolster and there are two small cracks on the instrument panel.
