Default Mine works great till it gets hot sitting in LA traffic (like on the 405) then it chatters a bit ...

from a stop. I love living in Southern California but the traffic really, really sucks.

Give yourself 2 weeks, it'll become 2nd nature.

Default Got my fuel sensor thingy replaced yesterday under the recall -

I think it has helped with the low rev stumbles and choking...

Default opted to lease. didn't use dealer though. much better rates achieved through ACS...

Funny thing: Dealer pushed hard with their prefered bank - US Bank - and came back with a money factor that was considerably higher than Automobile Consumer Services - yet, ACS also used US Bank - with money factor of 00219.

Methinks dealer was folding in fat commission onto the lease transaction.

Would have considered financing if able to get the Audi Bank 1.9% deal. But was not offered with the discount off MSRP that i got. Dealer flat-out refused to do it.

Dealer not happy that I went with ACS at last minute. Oh well :-)

I would have been foolish not too though. The money saved over three years will pay for several sets of tires.

Default I have the same combination, love the look...

...and lots of pedestrians do too, I get a lot of looks in NYC. You'll also find people jumping out of the way even if you're rolling up to a red light because the car is loud and looks so sinister

Next I would suggest tinting the windows to add to the dark overall look. I got that done the second day I had the car actually.

Nice pick, enjoy it!
