I'm from germany and i can tell you that i sometimes still see the cheaper sibling of this car, the Audi 80, today on german roads. I myself had an Audi 80 from 1994 as my very first car. The Audi 80 was a very huge success here, it once was one of the most common cars.
Do you remember the Audi 100 diesel ? A friend of mine had one as a first car here in States. It wasn't very quick but it would run and it looked good. Platinum silver with chrome trim, blue leather interior. that was such a long time ago. Good times.
@@josephdominics5935 i never had an Audi 100 diesel and don’t know anyone who had one. Diesel cars weren‘t very common here (except for Mercedes and Taxis) until the late 90s. I had a gasoline powered Audi 100 C4 from 1992 as my daily driver until 2021.
@@andi4life yeah man. It was an early 70's Audi 100 LS. It handled really smooth. At the time of remind me of a Mercedes. We would get on the freeway and just drive 100 mph as long as we could. My buddy was very into affordable German cars and was always tinkering on them. Later he had a 77 Volkswagen Scirocco with the round headlights. He swapped out the original motor and put a GTI motor into it. Man.. that car was one of the fastest cars I had driven back in the days. 😂. I was going to buy it from him, told him to hold it until my next paycheck... A few days later he hit a telephone pole and totalled the classic, hurt himself really bad. The first thing I was going to do was upgrade the brakes. It was just to fast for it's own good. Take care my friend and have a great day. ✌️
@@josephdominics5935 I still have a project 1984 Jetta coupe manual transmission, manual steering & manual sunroof in S California. The A/C stopped working though. Fortunately I retrofitted vent windows... But I might need to sell it in order to make room.
It was the popularity of the 1st generation A4 that helped save Audi from leaving the U.S. market. The unintended acceleration controversy really hurt Audi sales in the late 80's and early 90's.
It was a different time. Audi was the underdog back then and when 60 Minutes doctored their test car and lied to everyone, it had a massive impact on perception. It's not like today where you can go read about a car online, or watch video reviews from regular people. Your only sources of info were magazines and television, and people still believed media back then.
For sure, my buddy bought a new A4 1.8t manual in the early 2000’s. They seemed so different to anything else available and the interiors were incredible compared to anything else of the day. He had a few little electrical problems but the engine was fantastic. He did a turbo and chip and it was very fast. You didn’t see many around back then
I had a 1989 90 quattro and it was one of my favorite cars. Great seats, very comfortable. Trunk was short, but very deep and didn't have cargo crusher hinges. Not fast from a start, but once rolling it moved along just fine.
Is it really? I think that range-wise it's equivalent to a good spec S4. Where I live, in 2024, the S4 is a diesel now. And costs around 70k. But it's Euros and for a poor spec, so as the boxes for options get checked, it easily can go up to 85k.
As a former 4000 CS quattro owner, I can tell you that the firing of "team doorhandle" was one of the biggest upgrades on the 80/90. These didn't snap off in the winter. ;-) The only part I disliked about these (also present in my 90 Coupe quattro 20V) was the GM derived automatic climate control system. I would much prefer the manual setup of this car.
The designers did a great job with the appearance inside and out. It looks thoroughly modern for the time and I think it's still a pretty car, but when your smallest entry model costs more than one of your much larger models, it's probably not going to sell well. I'd take an Audi 100 over this for less money in a heartbeat. It's a no-brainer. That car was also very attractive and offered much better passenger and cargo room.
Beautiful car and amazing engine sound! Wish it was a quattro version. Too bad 60 Minutes faked everything in their 'testing'. How Audi didn't sue 60 Minutes for lost sales. I'll never understand.
Later 90 models are much better. Im picking up a 1995 Audi 90 5 speed 2.8 12v Quattro. Im surprised the whole rear under side of the car is the same as my B5 S4s. Literally all the same suspension and subframe and differential, fuel tank etc. After failing to find an Audi 200, I've made my mind up to go pick this car up tomorrow morning in near Mt. Dora Florida. I have a spare 4.2 40v V8 S8 D2 motor. After I get sick of the 12v 2.8..... ya already know whats going in.... but I feel like im going to have to use the 4.2 ABZ 32v motor found in Prefacelift D2 A8 (97-99) I think the ECU and stuff with the newer S8 motor, that is totally plug and play drop in swap into a B5 like the cars I have (yes plug and play V8 swap) is not going to work in the 90. We shall see. Im pretty excited!
I noticed that too. Almost Cadillac/Lincoln luxobarge levels of lean. Though I guess for all the bobbing it did, the car still maintained going the direction the driver wanted. I imagine a big GM model would have had the rear swinging all over the course. But they also weren't designed to handle curves well, just going forward very smoothly.
I test drove the 4-cyl 80 manual. The body porpoises like a dolphin even over bumps or small undulations. The 90's “Longitudinal inline-5 over the front axle” would make this nose-heaviness even more severe -- See 1:54 (Watch for a couple seconds) & 4:53 (Watch for a minute), LOL & “the ride is a bit harsh”, even with such loose suspension set up? To make a long story short, by 2004, I've discovered that the light-nose 4-dr RX-8 with standard 16" rims & soft suspension soaks up bumps softer than any sporty car yet still handles like race car!
I had a 1994 90 CS Quattro Sport. I never drove an earlier example but I suspect it was much improved over the first model year. It wasn't quick but it was built like a tank and it handled great. It compared favorably to the 96 BMW 325i I had later, though the driving experiences were very different.
I had a 1995 90 and the car was HEAVY! The suspension back then didn’t really embrace the “race style” of now days. And of course the power was also lacking too. But overall the car was beautiful and fit and trim.
“If it were not for the clever 4wd system, the car from Ingolstadt would fall straight through the grid into oblivion. It is hard to understand why Ingolstadt did not do a better job when tuning the Coupe's suspension.

7:05..............when MotorWeek didn't like a new car, you KNEW it was a REAL POS. 1987 had been a VERY bad year for Audi, as their Sudden Unintended Acceleration scandal on their 5000 models cost the brand a lot of US sales, not to mention their reputation in this country. The 1988 Audi 90 was a beautiful car to look at, but, unfortunately, that beauty was only skin-deep. The car just lacked the polish necessary to bring the company back.
These must've been really really rare because I don't remember seeing a single one of these things (I grew up in the 80s/90s.) I remember previous Audi's and ones after this but not these. In fact I don't think Audi really started being popular again until the A4 came out. 60 min did them dirty.
Huh interesting! I grew up in Wichita Kansas which might explain the difference. I could see how these would be popular in wealthy liberal suburbs. We had plenty of money but I just remember Mercedes and Bimmers with a few Jags. A lot of people drove huge trucks instead.@@williamegler8771
Meanwhile, Cadillac was selling the Cimarron. 😂 This car was pretty nice. It's no sports sedan. I'm not sure Audi presented it that way. I think it was just the way Americans percieved Audi, BMW, and Mercedes back then.
I remember when BMW rolled out anti lock brakes for their first motorcycle. The rider rode those brakes as hard as possible on gravel, something that would almost guarantee a wreck, and still came to a straight stop.
@@ibrahimcehajic Um, I’m going to have to disagree on that one. Why haven’t automakers made an ABS disabling option since the beginning. I have driven on all of those surfaces with and without ABS and I can tell you that ABS is a necessity on snow for sure. It helps you keep more control on gravel for sure.
@a.person7825 decades ago most awd 4wd vehicles had abs off button,abs today is more sophisticated and abs is not functioning at speeds bellow 5-8 mph specifically to counter the never stopping scenario that older vehicles used to experience,now add bigger wider tires vs 13 and 14 inchers from olden days and a way more sophisticated abs and traction control systems and someone like might come to a conclusion you did.
The 80/90 and the 100/200 replaced the 4000 and 5000 after 60 Minutes falsified a story about cars over powering brakes, which cannot happen. When a person panics they often can't think straight or remember what happened.
The hit job that Audi took on the unintended acceleration hoopla really almost tanked the brand. I always wonder if that is what caused Audi to miss the huge boom of BMW and MB going into the 90s. The interiors were always one of Germany's best.
I fell in love with Audi after driving a friend's 100 and thought this was the right car for me. That same friend told me if I got one, I better be able to afford the repair bills. With that and later learning of that aspect of their reputation I never took the plunge. I really wish Audi had put better quality into their cars for America though. I sure did like them.
Not sure which generation of 100 he had, but the C4 (starting in 1992) were very well made and surprisingly affordable to run. I've spent more on maintenance on my Toyota. But it does leak oil if you don't maintain it! 😅
Wow io ho posseduto un'Audi 80 1.9 TDI del 1994 l'ho avuta per più di 13 anni dire che era una bomba è poco oggi possiedo la A4 del 99 è la A6 del 2002 non le cambierei per niente al mondo si è capito che sono un' audista😊😊😊💪💪💪👌👌👌👍👍👍
I would likely get the 1988 Audi 80 or the 90 with a four cylinder engine and an automatic. I will never get any Audi model with a five cylinder engine.
Don’t know much about Audi’s but neighbors BMW is loaded on a roll back about once every 2 months and driven 2 110 miles to the nearest BMW dealer to be worked on.

So..al usa sedans of the day in the k car segment did 0-60 in what? 4 seconds? It was precision engineering as thoi brochure dub this, and the body would not rust because of z1nc but this thing i find difficult (rain and roof / house innit/ but 4 markets than only knew Golf 1 and Beetle , your market, go extra mile for rust proofing was a good idea. Worlds fastest sauna is more relevant critisizn the percentage of glass is very large therefore it heats up quickly. Its handling is very good as the video shows?! but the race track voice narrator je just dont believe it i guess .. ..
I remember this era of Audi's....they all looked so boring. The Honda Accord of this era looked better, had similar if not better features, and were rockstars for cost of ownership on top of owning the reliability segment. Why own this generation of Audi when you could have a Corolla sport or Honda Accord for cheaper, with better styling and better cost of ownership.
@@JamesGadbury I dunno about that. My mom was in multiple accidents in her 86 accord, she wasn't super injured in any of them. My dad's 92 camry was T-boned on the front passenger side (where I was sitting) by a car doing 30 MPH and everyone, including me, walked away without a scratch.

I had a 1988 90 from 1995-2001. I've regretted selling it for years.
I had one of these , it was an amazing car back in its day. One of my favorite non performance cars I’ve ever owned
I have one of these cars with quattro( which is a must) and it feels surprisingly modern to drive still

These cars were beautifully assembled luxury cars. I remember my dad test drove one of these. Very expensive and small. E30 competitor.
I am not really a car person, but I enjoy the sleek infomercial presentations done by MotorWeek, to me it is the 80's a nutshell 😃
The pricing of this car is absolutely bonkers - $26,000 in 1988 is about $70,000 in 2023 adjusted for inflation. No wonder it didn’t sell well
Is it really? I think that range-wise it's equivalent to a good spec S4.
Where I live, in 2024, the S4 is a diesel now. And costs around 70k. But it's Euros and for a poor spec, so as the boxes for options get checked, it easily can go up to 85k.
That 90 had the same animated icons as my 04 cabriolet has. I love this era of Audi design.

Front passenger wheel left the road for a split second at 1:55!
The Audi 90 has a name that predicted the look of all cars in the 1990s, aerodynamic, fast and futuristic.

No,you want the snow or sand to build up in front of your tires to stop, abs on snow or sand would just keep cycling and take forever to stop.

The Honda Accord of this era looked better, had similar if not better features, and were rockstars for cost of ownership on top of owning the reliability segment. Why own this generation of Audi when you could have a Corolla sport or Honda Accord for cheaper, with better styling and better cost of ownership.
Because a Honda or Toyota feels like it's made of tin in comparison. The reliability might be good, but the build isn't the same.
@@JamesGadbury I dunno about that. My mom was in multiple accidents in her 86 accord, she wasn't super injured in any of them. My dad's 92 camry was T-boned on the front passenger side (where I was sitting) by a car doing 30 MPH and everyone, including me, walked away without a scratch.
In 91 you could have the 200 20v turbo quattro. All wheel drive and good for 160mph in factory form. That's why.
