Dude! You must be so stoked about your car!!! What is the date of your delivery? I'm getting my TT on July 3 (Taipei time) so basically July 2 back home in Canada. It's an awesome feeling to get a new car...but I think I will be just a bit nervous pulling off the lot!

I'm sure you will find the right buyer for your car. It's too bad North American (and Asian drivers too...which in Vancouver is a huge part of the market for cars) don't like MTs. (Ok, before I'm flamed...I know in some Asian countries MTs are the ONLY transmission you see! And yes yes, I have many Asian car enthusiasts who love MTs too...I'm talking about the market! ) For people like me, I would prefer an MT over an AT (even DSG) if given a choice.....BUT...when I consider the used car market...my small preference for MT over DSG unfortunately gets dumped in favor of an easier re-sell. On the flip side for you CanuckA3....once you do find a buyer interested in the car...there won't be many choices for him either in finding another MT volvo...so the deals tend to get done quickly.

Post pics of your car soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I am stoked my friend! July 2 is tomorrow.....one more sleep (as kids say).My Volvo has been hit three times in the last two years. If anyone hits the Audi, watch CNN for the result!

I know that I am waiting for that particular person wanting exactly what I have. I have decided to wait for this person to arrive, rather than give the car away. Thanks for your support.

I will post pics once the car has been lowered and the CF valance is installed. I just hope that the ECU programmer works given that the A3 apparently has a new ECU as of 2008.5.

Gas prices just increased today to $1.52 per litre ($5.60 US gallon) to cover the new carbon tax. Does Audi make a bike?
