Default While looking for Chipotle in Irvine... saw a semi-debadged silver A4 parked in plaza off Yale.

It had some (avantgarde!?) side skirts, S4 or painted rear and an RS4'ish front. Anyone else seen that?

It looked pretty good from the glance that I got.



Who could that be? Anyone here? Is it fast?


Found Chipotle, by the way... good stuff.

Default Actually, I DID know that... but only learned it earlier today ;) It's like...

...It's like a Subway (as they make it in front of you)... only actually good.

The first time I had it was just last week on my business trip (in Cleveland). And the one here tasted EXACTLY THE SAME. That's your fast-food-chain consistency, eh? Maybe the best thing about fast food chains... consistency.

By the way... I say lots of Audis in Ohio. I suppose it makes more sense that they have the AWD in a place that actually snows... eh?

Default Heheh, I've eaten at McDonalds in Southern China on the mainland...I swear to god it's identical

filth all around...poverty like crazy...but like a shining jewel (actually hate McD's) there was McDonalds, sanctuary from chickens feet (you heard me right) entrails and other unmentionables. The burger I had was a CARBON copy of what you get in the US...amazing :-)

Default Ha!

That's too funny.

Yeah, the girlfriend is Chinese... so I'm familiar enough (for my taste... pardon the pun) with the chicken feet, the cold chicken wings, etc.

Funny about the McD's, though. Never considered that it'd even be the same in China. I heard that in India they have lamb burgers. Crazy!

Default did he have stock 17" sport wheels and dumped? If it was then helped do

the install on his bumper and sides. It would be Big Nipper's friend.

Default I thought they might have been aftermarket wheels... but I can't say for sure.

I would have liked to have gotten a better look at the front bumper.
