congrats. looks like a LOT of fun!

 

You've barely had you current A4 for a year and you're already getting a new one!

When I saw you a couple of weeks ago, your wife wasn't happy about you getting VAG-COM but she's letting you get a new car? WOW.
Are you trading in your A4 or your wifes Golf?

 

Especially with all these motherfucking hurricanes taking all the gas away.

 

hahaha yeah, no kiddin! My old A4 was getting too expensive to maintain. We basically put about 1/2 what we paid for the car again in maintenance and replacing dodgy "upgrades" from the previous owner. Instead of paying another 2k for timing belt (not 100% sure if it was done by the other guy so was more of a better safe than sorry) and to have the wheel bearing replaced as well as other misc crap that needed fixing like the heads up display.

Figured it was better to cut our losses on the old one and get a new one that is under warranty.

I picked the new one up today, it drives like a dream. I'm not a huge fan of the exhaust that put on the car, makes my brain vibrate at 3k RPMS in 5th and 6th gears but it sounds hellishly mean from gears 1-4. It also has what I think is 35% tint all the way round which is awesome.

I'll wax her up and put up some pics in the next couple of days....
