Hey guys. My names Phil; Im a 26 year old small business owner from the Toledo Ohio area. I just bought my first Audi.. a black 2012 A4. My previous car was an 08 M3 sedan. It was amazing, but a little on the expensive side in pretty much all fields... payment, gas, insurance... etc. I had always admired the elegance of the A4, and figured that I would give it a try. I took it for a 26 hour test drive and fell in love. Im also really excited to go back to a turbo (had a 335i) with its ease of tuning and boatloads of low end torque.

First day with the car:

Not the nicest day out.

I definitely plan on modifying this car, as I feel it needs a little bit of help reaching its full aesthetic potential. I got a base model so it looks a bit like a "mom car" with the factory 17s and high ride height. Not being a huge fan of chrome, I just Plasti-dipped the front grille.

Up next are some VMR v710s (had them on the M3), a healthy drop, and a nice tint. In the spring I am planning on a full exhaust and an APR stage 2 flash.
