Hey guys, had the pleasure of working on a pretty rare and unique vehicle this past week. The owner of this 1995 Audi S6 approached me about breathing some life back into the paint. After covering 178,000+ miles, the exterior was understandably tired. Surprisingly, the interior, specifically the leather seats showed very little wear.

The owner had originally decided on my hybrid correction, but we ended up doing a multi stage due to the rock hard paint.

Thanks Mike, unfortunately no before shots. This color was hard as hell to get defect shots of! I was also on a tight deadline so after not being able to get decent before shots, I just concentrated on the work at hand.
 
Great turnaround, you'd never think it has 178K, maybe 78K!

On a sidenote I used to work at a dealership back in the metro Detroit area and got to drive a 1995 S6 to a hotel near Road America because a customer of ours needed an axle for his Lotus. Our car was pearl white w/ bone colored seats and had 02' S8 wheels on due to the fact that it had Porsche clampers on the front. The car had an MTM tune along with an S2 exhaust manifold, car was fast! Loved the straight 5 in that thing, smoooooth and full of torque!

Wonder if wants to sell it now that it looks so good?!
