Default Change of plans guys, had to share with my Cayenne buddies

Sorry to disappoint you q7 fans,LOL
I recently change my mind and decided to just get an a4 SLine quattro2.0T as my snowmobile, and now looking for a track car either a used boxsterS or a 996.. prob in the $25-36K range..
If anybody want my spot for my order call Adam Levine at 925 2454959, from Livermore Audi.. prod week in may 8

here are the pics of the A4..not bad 3 yr lease .000075 money factor, 58% residual,LOL

Alex,
Nice Audi, I really love the looks of them. My only question, is it really an S4 with a 2.0T ? I see the S4 badging on the steering wheel. I've never known an S4 to be less that a Turbo six or V8?!?!?! ?

And why not go for broke and get the RS4 with 420 HP.

It's actually an S line badge, not an S4 badge IIRC.

You have to hand it to Audi; their interiors still set the standard for design/ergonomics.....makes me miss my 02 S4 sometimes

Alex, may I ask why a Boxster or 996 for a track car? Neither would have been my first reaction. The Boxster will require a hardtop or a rollbar and the 996 is a bit heavy.

I would imagine that you could purchase a fully sorted/prepared 911/964 track car for that amount and it would be easier to maintain than a 996 (re: much less electronics, M64/GT1 derived engine, G50 trans, etc).

Best of luck,

Congrats Alex. I would love to see some pics out in the sun - the same as for your sadly departed CT on the road.
Out of curiousity - are you a Gemini - hence the ambivalence?

The 997TT with Tiptronic is faster than the 997TT with 6 speed. Automatics are getting much better/more popular.
