anyway, gotta sleep so i can get up early and watch Atlanta Hawks try and make NBA history. Celtics should/will dominate at home...nevertheless, will be fun to watch.
g'nite,
e

saw this too.... I assume they use insurance information so I bet it's pretty accurate...

There are way too many articles about "chick cars" and "gay cars" If anyone wants to doubt my manhood based on the car I'm drining I'll drag out my Elva Courier and put their balls (and their kidneys) to the test.

yeah....my wife drives my lowered, chipped, 18" inch rims A3 as the primary driver......of course my insurance company knows this!

i gotta tell you, def see lots of women driving them in LA

are you supposed to tell your insurance company your chipped?

Sure, go ahead and tell them. And paste a few hundred dollar bills to the note, too. That will save them the stamp for telling you your rates have just gone into the preferred risk pool.

Ill pass lol...I just didn't know if you were supposed to

I don't know about percentages but I'm a female and drive an A3

I think A3 does have a special charm to the female crowd somehow. When i showed my A3 to my mom and other lady friends the first time, the very first thing they said Oh it's CUTE!....
No matter how I try to defend the machoism of my ride, it still comes across as cute.

give it up guys, we have a cute car.

When I showed my wife the A3 for the first time, she was like, "it's a hatchback???" WTF???

Albeit, she is a huge American muscle car fan, so she judges cars by a different set of criteria than me.Her judgement is morelike from a mullet perspective, rather than a cold, calculating German vantage. LOL


Cheers!

Neelie, good choice of automobile.

Chef, I am with you on the practicality part, I have never understood the American disdain of hatchbacks.

BTW, my wife and I also own a Mini Cooper S. Never get one of these if you don't like hearing "cute" car.

x2 what omni said -- but it's different now with a lowered suspension, time-attach wheels and 20% tint all around.

Well, I just bought my 2nd A3 last week and I absolutely love it. However, I must say that I've gotten quite of few looks from the fellas on the road. :D So, it's an automobile for everyone!

HAHAHAHA. Ya man, my girlfriend used to say that it was awesome, her favorite car....and to top it off, she had to add that it was CUTE. I'm like, "no no no, look at those eyes! They are angry!! the bi xenons have no feminine attributes, they are pure evil, muscle!"
haha, but i've come to face facts that its "cute"...

No feminine attributes? But then you reference the bi xenons as pure evil and angry? A3s415, it's cool you're not married. When you do get married - you will definitely see those 'bi xenons' focused on you.... Dang. You hit it on the head about the bi xenons - that look is definitely a woman. :eek:

My wife definately prefers the A3 over our 9-3 Aero. She calls the 9-3 the "grocery getter" which says alot since I would on the face of it call the hatch that, not the sedan.

All my friends said that the A3 is "CUTE"[&:]

Mine said the same thing, but said ...it's a station wagon...
