Default New here with new car, Cab 3.2FSI Quattro. From "Amsterdam"

Hi guys! (and girls ;-)

I'm Maurice from the Netherlands, I live near the city Amsterdam (thats more common for the most of the US members)
I've always been a audi nut, and I'm driving audi for the last 6.5 years now. I started with a new full option 2000 A6
2.4 V6 Quattro. I loved it so much that I drove it 6 years
In June 2006 I ordered a B7 A4 3.2L FSI V6 24v Quattro Convertible with almost
every option. It was a hard decision becaus taxes on cars in my country are around
40/45%. So a empty 3.2Cab Q costs around 75K US dollars [:@] and you also have
to pay those texas over every option on the car.. Pain in the neck I tell you! But a
Audi is worth every penny!!

So after 3 longgg months I got my Cabrio on 19th of august. And YES it was still nice
weather over here
After around 900Miles I could open the tabs of the new 3.2L FSI engine. It's much
better than the 2.4 V6 I had before. The 3.2L has much more torque (the 2.4 didnt
had anything below 3500 revs) It's still no turbo charge torque feeling, but's enough
for now! It's quite stiff compared to my old A6, but you dont lose much comfort.
It's also quite heavy for a car, but the stiffer suspension, low center gravity and the
50/50 torque split really helps. Yes its still little bit understeary, but I know after 6
years how to handle a Quattro
My overall view of the car is very positive! It just feels like your always driving in
your money hehe.

For now its still standard with in my opinion the best looking rims on the convertible
option list (to bad they dont have them in 18")
My further projects are 18" rims (I'll use the 17" rims for winter tires) Wheel spacers,
I dont know if it's the right word, but the thing that pushes the rim little bit more to
the outside of the car.
Maybe the new RS4 oval muffler or the bigger round caractere mufflers.
And If I'm getting bored of the power I'll maybe get 1 of those supercharger kits from
MTM that will boost the power up from 255BHP to around 320BHP


Here are some picture's from 1 day after I got it (aug 20, 2006) I still need to make
some nice nature pictures or something like that

Can you legally drive around smoking a massive doobie with the top down? Damn that would be the life
