    I think they got the mileage and scrambled it a little to get the price;

    Mileage: 24949
    Price: 29499

    Around me it would be about right, 3.2s are hard to find and some dealers are still asking in the 30s for 08s with less than 30k miles and they still can't keep them on the lots.

    Good car if you wanted to build your own US version of the RS3 - slap in a stage III HPA turbo you'd be pushing 500HP, suspension and brakes, some Euro spec seats and interior trim pieces and you could justify a RS3 body kit if you wanted to go that route. Of course you just spent what a real RS3 would have cost.

    Ha I wish, there is a 08 A3 here with 80k kilometers the one dealership has asking 32k haha.

    If it didn't have the tan interior, I'd consider giving them an offer. But more like 25k

    That car would be a lot more desirable if it had the titanium package. If I could snap my fingers and change one thing about my car, it would be to have the all black interior (and those alcantara sport seats, of course )

    I would love to get the black interior for my car. Wonder how hard it would be to at least find the a,b, and c pillars in black.

    I'm thinking that someone ordered and paid for a 3.2 at the end of 08 and it was a special build or something to fill the order. I've never seen or heard of a facelift 3.2 before and it's listed as an 09. I assumed it was a mistake until they showed the badge and engine photos - super rare car.

    hmm... I always thought it was 08 because I know the 2.0T quattro replaced it and that started as an 09 car.

    I have been on the hunt for a 3.2 now for a few months and the newest I have seen to date is a 2008... If I could find a 2009 that would be the cats ass.

    That's the first 09 I've seen. However, here's something cooler for sale in MA. A two door with the old bumper. Granted it's only FWD but still.

    Oh wow, I remember when I was 16 I lived in Denmark and my host family had a gold colored 2 door, that thing was awesome I loved it.

    But now I kinda like the 4 door one more...

    Yeah, there are a handful (like 60) 2009 facelift 3.2 A3's out there. I think there are two guys on this forum (Maitre Absolut, and one other guy I can't remember) who own one.

    Haha they really should eh?

    All of those are good deals for sure, just to high of Km's for me. The few I am looking at in the states range in the 50-60k kilometer range

    I put on a lot of Km's with road trips and what not. My Gti I bought in 08 with 70k, currently sitting at 215k.
