Very nice, my friend's dad has the same car and color too. I guess you got your torque fix now.

i made my wife scream - we still had our clothes on.

it pulls pretty hard for a bone-stock 3800 pound car.

it was pretty funny - on a test drive the salesguy was raving about the "short throw" shifter and i laughed. i told him that compared to my S2000 - this thing has throws of epic proportions!

i got the 6MT anyway. don't really like or trust tiptronic trannies.

36 more months and it's all mine.

first time ever I bought a car with absolutely zero dollars down. there's audi financing on CPO cars. 1.9 for 24 months 2.9 for 36

picked it up in bellingham so it was only natural that we should christen the car with a ride down chuckanut.

y'know how radios display info on songs/stations these days? i thought this was pretty funny. it was almost like the car was greeting me.

it's certainly a thirsty beast - but it's hard to keep your foot out of it. that V8 rumble is intoxicating.

Congrats mang! I'm glad our chats helped out and you finally got what you wanted!

I loved my s4's great cars, and I know you'll enjoy it.

the only thing that'll really surprise you is that it gets faster after 1000 miles and really begins to open up and run smother/faster after about 5000 miles.

Let me know when your back in town so we can grab that beer.

enjoy!

David

great getting advice from someone who knows the ins and outs of the car(s)

I am grateful. Hopefully @ Tacos you'll let me buy you a big Dos Equis.
