Although my B7 A4 S line was very fun modded up, handled really well with upgraded springs and shocks, as well as sways and they are getting pretty cheap now.. Sub 10k. K04 turbo upgrade and you get nearly 300hp and tqs.

Why not just DD the dsm you have, not a good dd?

Nice shot there, I'd like an A7 of some sorts in the long distant future, they are beautiful.
I do like having a racecar though.

FUnny you say audi's aren't great drivers cars, but of course the one you had fit the bill.

DD a DSM?
Been there done that, and auto's are mega boring esp. for my little drive.

A good daily also relates to the route you drive. For me it's 7 miles of back roads each day. Never above 40 mph unless I hit the freeway on a holiday with no traffic. I'd rather put the miles on something like this and have a fun summer/weekend car to really enjoy (which is planned)...
Nice, I have a 4.6 mile drive, about 2 of it is neighborhood and the rest is a 55-65mph divided highway with some curves. Be good for some pulls, which I will be doing in the summer time.

I don't remember the last time I was in one, but I have sat in them and I know the seats are comfy.

My friend said his old dodge spirit is perfect, turbo noises, decent power and gets over 30mpg mixed, his gf would get high 30s with hers.

A shit ton of room in those old things and giant trunks too.

As far any more person shots at me, I get bored super easy usually 9 months is the longest I usually hang onto cars.
I've kept a handful longer than that, but right now I do have desire to try and drive some real drivers cars and then to just get into some old shit for the heck of it.

Will it happen? probably not, too many other things that I have to spend money on that I WOULD rather spend money on, but having some knowledge of what out there is nice.
