I am going to the dark side. I have ordered a Subaru WRX STi. My 2008 Audi A3 is for sale. 7100 kilometres (4400 miles). S-Line, open sky, 18" 5 spoke alloys, power driver's seat, IPOD interface, heated seats, 60 month Audi Care, Eibach Pro-Kit springs and rear sway bar, Dunlop snow tires on MSW wheels (shown). Lava Gray with black leather interior. I am asking $34,995 CDN, hoping to get $33,000 CDN.

 

Traitor. You deserve nothing. NOTHING, I say.

 

After all that waiting for your baby the love affair was so short? Sigh

You need a TT-S and that will sort you out properly...the STD, er, STi?

 

Thanks for the laugh guys!!! Yes, I will say that the STi is not a sophisticated girl....but she is BAD!!!

 

Why STi!

Drive an A4, S4, or another car with true quattro! Your A3 has a similar AWD system to a scooby, haldex electronic differential AWD. The rest of the Audi line has Torsen, except the TT, and that is TRUE AWD.
Just test drive one before you go scooby, kay? Please?

 

I've had the opportunity to test drive an '09 A4, a 135i and a C300, nearly on consecutive days - unfortunately no STi. While I am sure the STi is a beast, I have to say that surprisingly enough, the car that seemed to be most fun was the A4. They really have done quite the job on the 2009 generation - it is a completely different experience than 2008 models. And while the 135i is hands down the fastest of the bunch on paper - the smoothness makes it - dare I say - boring.

 

I watched a review about STi and they said the stick is very hard.

I'm sure you'll be back to the light side in the future ;-)

good luck!
