Default Guess I'll make it official

Tomorrow I am getting rid of this (the red one):



And picking up this:



03 PPW Touring Edition 6 speed 91k Frost interior .. mods that I know of.. K&N intake, TB spacer and something either done to the exhaust or it has aftermarket (no name on the tips though), its def louder then stock, but not crappy or raspy sounding. It looks lowered compared to others i've seen pictures of.

Great car!
Are OEM wheels darker or is it just the lighting?

one of the PO's painted them very poorly. I plan to get them back to silver for the winter and figure out something for the spring.

The rims on both of the Audi's dont really seem to...match the style of the car.

Congrats on the Z though (:

The cars are both european styled. both are low for the chassis, stretched, poked, or "stanced" if you're a scene kid.

the blue car is my buddies.. t3/t4 50 trim with unitronics tuning.. 20psi on stock motor.. roughly 300 AWHP.. the borbets are really rare, especially in 18x8.5 with a 5x112 pattern.

My car's got vette wheels on it, stock turboed, rolled front fenders, pulled rear quarters, s4 interior, moderate mods here and there.. best thing about it, 77k miles.

Thanks guys.. I will be active on the board while I have the car.. The point of the car was just to flip it up for some cash and buy something else. I might turn to like it, depending how some Blizzak's will treat me in the snow. With the Audi, standard all seasons and a foot snow was no problem at all for me.

so... you're gonna see how it handles in the snow?

make sure you have gap coverage bc you'll be totaled in < 90 days.

Thanks!

Is this the most active 350 forum or is another just as active if not more? In my old world I had Vortex which is the VW/Audi Mecca, or there was Audizine. 'Tex was more about appearance and the scene and 'Zine was more about performance.

it'll get drove in the snow... yes... is it getting tracked or drove aggressively in the snow? well come on, think about that one.

I wont have a loan on the car.. its mine out right but I keep full coverage on everything I own.
