Congratulations and best of luck. Very attractive car.

(BTW, what's wrong with D90's and flags? )

Slappy, what's that black thing in your front markers? Looks like a smile with a tooth knocked out!

hehe, thanks guys. I am pretty excited to drive it. It's waaaay different than my AWD S4 already. Talk about pushing in the corners, the C4 is nothing compared to the 50/50 split Quattro. Even stock this car handles really well. I went out last night and did some canyon runs in an area that I know is safe to do so. The experience is very visceral. Just a blast.

I can't wait to get some mods going. My wife wants to leave the car stock. But you can't live your life preserving everything. I say enjoy it, not abuse it, just enjoy it. So the mods will be reversible, and I am going to go have fun.

Yes, the engine tray is on it. ;-)

Okay - D90's, flags, AND an undertray?

You have really got to get started on those mods.

Glad to see you held out for the one you wanted. I don't think I've seen a 964 in that color. Get that baby out of the garage and take some more pics!

Very nice choice. Glad you waited- that's both a question and a statement from me. The right one does come along. I love the piping on the seats; kinda sets them off a little more.

Yeah, I am glad I waited for sure. It didn't take too long in retrospect.

I spent last night removing the aftermarket stereo amplifier and wiring. It wasn't working properly, and it's heavy, and I don't want it. I will just use the stereo amp right to the speakers. I also fixed one of the window switches. What absolute fun this thing is. I will ebay that stuff to add to the 'car fund'. Today I plan to hit some twisties with it back in the hills, and Thursday/Friday is my Sears Point DE with the Audi Club. I had not planned on taking it this soon, but my Audi is in the shop.

Thanks again for all the nice words everyone.

Congrats kgorman! Looks like a really clean car.

Where was the consignment lot at where you bought the car??
