Lava grey on black leather, first car was a charcoal grey saab 900 turbo with 110k miles on it drove that one into the ground. That darkish grey color has always been my favorite.

Stryker,

Do you have a rear sway bar too? It's not listed on your sig line, but something I'd thought you'd have by now. BTW, why are you getting the EVOMS CAI if you already have the Carbonio? Seems like wasted money to me. Could of had a tighter back end with those funds. And I'm not talking about your a$$. LOL

Cheers!

I have always been curious to see if there was a difference between the two, and i have a strong feeling there is. I already have a buyer for the carbonio so that is not a problem.
About the sway bar i haven't felt the need for it. Unless you can tell me that the feeling is night and day from the stock sway bar. Then that might just be my next mod.

BTW the engine cover that comes with the evoms cai. is not what they show on their site, they have one that looks like the stock engine cover with the 2.0 fsi on it.

The one i have is a black engine cover with the evoms logo on it, does not look bad just not what i expected. Make sure A3night reads this so he can bitch them out for me next time he talks to those guys. (i'll call them myself tommorow)

Going off subject for a moment, did you guys see Kelly Pickler on american idol tonight[8D], good lord in heaven does she look good, junk in the trunk, new ***** big ones small D cup if you ask me, very nice.

LOL

American Idol isn't on here yet, but I'll make sure that I catch it or at least TIVO. The RSB definitely has great benefit when cornering hard, but no change in normal driving conditions. I can bring the rear end around now and the car has some oversteer instead of understeer. It all depends on your driving style, but I definitely think the RSB is a worthwhile mod.

I'm not sure A3Night will be calling EVOMS since he is fine without the engine cover. I was originally wanting one myself but have gotten used to not having one as well.

So, what are you doing about your brakes?

I went with Ibis white with open sky and black interior...I love the contrast and wanted a color you don't see that often in the A3...at least not around here....ooooh i love it, sooooo sexy...will go very well with the plans I have for it too!! =)
another plus is it's a good color that hides scratches and swirl marks...not that I would ever put it thru a machine car wash

Manana is what you meant, but I don't know how to put the squigglies on the n?

I don't have any money to spend on mods at the moment, so I was hoping to spend yours. Oh well.[]

I did notice that we had another new member join in though. A new mind to warp with the mod bug!

Cheers!

No I wish!! My silver car was a 2003 Lexus IS300. The A3 wasn't out yet at least in the US.

Hi Skeebs-

So you're saying you prefer the A3 over the IS300? That is an excellent endorsement because the Lexus is probably at a more expensive pricepoint, right?
