Default I hate lambo doors on anything other than well, Lambos.

Lately, with all the loss I've experienced within the last 6 months, I'm a seriously practicing pacifist. I'm like water, my friend. No resistance, I go where there is no resistance.
More realistically, I spent some time at the dealer and sat in a TT with Alcantara. While the A3 and TT seats are designed by Recaro, the new TT with Alcantara have a smidge of sophistication that the S-line A3 seats are missing. The Recaro designed TT seats with Alcantara are simply amazing! The TT seats offer true ergonomic fit, and sublime support. Supple yet ready for any high-g action. The Alcantara TT seats are freaking the best. I noted how the TT has slightly more softness to the press of the dash material leading to the impression of better quality and luxury.

Default I went tonight too!

Test drove the new TT. Even though it was supposed to be a lighter weight car, the sales guy told me the front of the car is aluminum - it felt slow. Then again, I have APR, hehe.

All in all, the inteior of the car is good. I loved the seats, so much more comfortable compared to the Premium A3 seats. However, the brushed aluminum looked kinda cheap to me.

But that yellow RS4 is what really got my attention. First time seeing one up close and personal. Noticed the aluminum trim all around the windows and near the trunk - sweet!

Then noticed the S8 and S6, what a bargin!

Default HPA car...550hp. I meant to take a pic of the spec sheet but forgot.

My friend said he talked to Marcel last night and that the car was built for a client of theirs who already has a 500ish hp HPA r32.
Apparently his son drives the R32 all the time so he decided to get this one done for himself.
Cost was roughly 50grand on top of stock (canadian or us I don't know) Car is painted lambo orange...the doors actually look ok in person. 0-60 3.2 1/4 mile in under 12sec.
Should be in a car mag soon...can't remember which one tho.

Here's an A3 pic for good measure.
He'd just returned his black A3 because his lease was up...replaced it with this.<img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/97981/oetty.jpg">

Yeah, I got there pretty late. My car would've been the dirty one with matte mirror covers.

Default whoa!

Somebody got the Oettinger kit already. Nice. I guess he spent all the money on the kit and didn't have anything left over for nicer wheels... =P
