Add the Cobb tune and intake to the raptor. Like a new truck. Extra power is noticeable and transmission seems to shift better. Best truck available IMHO unless you pay $150k and get the Hennessy V8 raptor

Agreed....love my new Cobb 1+ tune on 91 octane.
Didn't notice any improved shift pattern yet. Although I hear Cobb intends to develop a specific tranny tune by next year.

I didn't know the F Pace SVR was out already. I've been following it but thought this would take a few more weeks to reach the showrooms. I might want to get one in ultra blue for the house. I think this suv is perfectly sized - I now have a pos Infinity QX80 Limited that is too big so it doesn't get used, so might be a good move to something like this. Your ownership impressions would be appreciated at some point.

please let us know your impressions once you've driven it for a bit...I was looking at this as a winter DD, but wasn't coming to my dealer til April and I needed a DD back in November, so went with the Alfa Stelvio Quadrifoglio instead....the wife's XC60 inscription lease is up in a year, so maybe add this then, but I will miss those messaging seats!

Default DD


The most fun i’ve had in a DD...raucous engine, a blast in the snow, so chuckable. 400 hp 5-cyl, DCT, quattro...perfection!

When not driving the touring

Reliable as a top

Cheap to maintain

Doesn't depreciate

I stopped in a Honda dealer today and there are still 7 people on the wait list for a Civic Type R. Is it worth it to get on the list? I thought it'd be a good weekend car, once in a while DD, and track car for my wife and kids (and me!).

I had a base A3 quattro loaner last week and it was great, fast, fun little car! I have an S6 as a daily driver and love it, but a bit too big and heavy sometimes. The RS3 must be a blast!
