I went out to buy a new Subaru...

[thrash]

Did i see/hear this car last nite driving near the apartments north of home depot?

I've seen one Red A3 in town before. The car i saw last nite didn't sound like a stock exhaust; seemed a bit on the loud side for factory Audi parts.

Thanks. I didn't really like it in the pictures, but when I saw it in person I loved it.

Man, not a whole lot of love here.

You bought the lowest model Audi makes in FWD and wagon, what do you expect?

In all seriousness tho, they really do look a lot better in person. Saw a silver one at Valley today and it didn't look nearly as gay as it appeared in the pictures. Looked less like a station wagon and more sporty than the pictures indicate.

Most likely. I live just NW of Home Depot. It's all stock though.

Yeah, who would want to buy a crappy American car....

Nice car, congrats! Does it feel quite a bit faster than your Prelude did?

Definitely. This thing would kill the Prelude. It's supposedly quicker than an 02-05 WRX, but I dunno if I agree with that. Either way it's a blast to drive, though.

I like it. It's kind of different.

I like the A3's. There was a really sick white one in a magazine that I read a while back. Had black wheels and a lip kit and stuff.

Because red is by far the fastest color.

[thrash]

the A3's quattro system is FWD biased haldex, just as it is in the current Jetta/Passat 4Motion and the Audi TT.

So its better than plain old FWD, but not really in the same ballpark as the fully mechanical systems in the A4 on up, which are Torsen based.

Whatever though. A guy could do a lot worse than an Audi A3.
