Audi A4 Avant 3.2L
« on: October 17, 2007, 08:06:41 pm »
ok i caved in.   the tsx is gone and the  A4 avant 3.2L is in.  the stats.  6spd manual,  quartz grey, light package (xenons), sport package, prem package.  i have always have loved audi designs but was afraid that i was walking into a repair nightmare.   (we will see about this soon enough i guess  ;)  thank god for extended warranties )  having said that, i must say i am totally seduced by this car. 255hp and plenty of torque have me looking down seeing if i have passed the new legislated "point of no return" - hummm, i better learn how to set that self imposed speed warning.  i have had this car for a week and have only owned hondas and acuras so i am still getting to know this car.   stand by for more commentary soon.

Awesome, but (1) there's a "show and shine" section, and (2) :ttiwwp:
"Geography has made us neighbors. History has made us friends. Economics has made us partners. And necessity has made us allies. Those whom nature hath so joined together, let no man put asunder. What unites us is far greater than what divides us." -- John F. Kennedy, addressing Canadian Parliament.

Was so excited when I saw this thread to only open it and see no pictures  ???

Good luck keeping your speeds down. I can't do that in my tq-less under powered wagon...that thing will be a real challenge.

In all fairness, he posted this in "new cars" and a moderator moved it here.  But regardless of where he posted it, you HAVE to post pictures when you get a new car.  Especially if it's an Audi  ;D

Kevlar, what do you do for a living?  :think: Oh yeah... isn't it photography???

WHERE ARE THE DAMNED PICS?!!!!

Further, what sort of nonsense is this not informing us of this momentous occasion until A WEEK after getting the car?  Oh the shame.

 :nono: :nono: :nono:

(oh, and congrats on a neat purchase)
