This past Fri I got the call fro Audi Manhattan that my A3 had arrived. After completing the paper work I began my ride home whci should have took about 25 minutes. Instead it took me 1 hour and 45 minutes gridlock traffic. Let me say how well this car performs in the 2 - 5 MPH range! It was a truly horrible experience. Regardless, it is great to have it. One thing I was very happy to see was Audi now includes an AUX input in the center console for audio devices. Wish I knew that before shelling out $250 for the ipod option.

 

im just gonna guess that you bought the 3.2. Just by seeing that you hated the 2-5mph range...haha, i have a 3.2 also and in that range of speed its either im going way too fast and have to slam on the brakes, or way to slow. haha, its really hard to get around it

 

Congratulations on your purchase!! i hope you get to drive it faster soon. I am sure it was a frustrating situation.

 

PS: Deep sea blue S-line grey interior, open sky. all it wants to do is take off...

 

I don't think the manual would be any more fun at those speeds.

 

No, the manual in gridlock traffic is murder. I had my car in LA for over two years and I know that feeling. Sucks when you have 2-4 hours of stop and go traffic. So glad those days are gone.



Cheers!
