Default Sad Day..... Ruby's gone

By far, the most fun car I've ever owned. She's gone to a good home, on the east coast to a new owner who is really going to appreciate her for what she is ... and more importantly what she can do on the track.

And..... we got a new (to us) Audi Allroad 2.7 Twin Turbo to accompany the 964 in the garage - a well-suited car for a growing family with dogs.

hahaha In all honesty, I had to hold back the tears.. since my wife was standing right next to me. Otherwise, I would have just let it all out.

Congrats on the Allroad (I had one a few years ago, great car). Get the APR ECU upgrade and bump the power to 318 hp
And whenever your air suspension starts acting up, you may want to consider the coilover conversion: http://www.arnottindustries.com/part...17_pid124.html

I got the GIAC chip in my A6 2.7T. It was awesome - instant 70hp and 110 ft lbs torque, so it's in the cards for sure.

Arnott also has aftermarket air suspension components with a lifetime warranty, so I'll probably get those when I need to as I like driving in deep snow.

Also, an air suspension is just plain old cool.

Depends if you are happy to sell or sad to sell. In my case, I was sad to sell, so seeing that truck driving off into the sunset was tough!!

The allroad is nice. Had one with the GIAC chip too, installed one of those sway bars as well.
