Another question - 353S 2008-08-20 18:09:56 (123 views)

No cradle, which is fine w/me. - Troy H 2008-08-20 20:47:41 (48 views)

Who at SC did you work with to order that? Want a special order myself... - Kradokk 2008-08-20 15:56:05 (50 views)

That's funny,, how were you able to keep it tight lipped? I thought for sure 353S would be the 1st. - roadstermadness 2008-08-20 13:49:04 (71 views)

Well, I just decided not to mention it. Thought it'd be fun to surprise you guys. As for the color, - Troy H 2008-08-20 13:56:07 (111 views)

Actually for the US, Audi is calling it Solid Orange... to avoid confusion as this. - 353S 2008-08-20 16:24:36 (50 views)

Not on my Monroney it's not. Might be special order vs. standard palette though. - Troy H 2008-08-20 16:42:19 (52 views)

I think it is. - 353S 2008-08-20 17:43:40 (45 views)

You sure? On audi.uk it's called Solar Orange Solid Finish (as opposed to say, Meteor Gray Metallic) - Troy H 2008-08-20 20:50:00 (58 views)

Hmmm... - 353S 2008-08-21 00:15:39 (64 views)

True, true. I wonder if Audi is trying to go to 2-character paint codes. I know other - Troy H 2008-08-21 08:25:09 (49 views)

I think the second pair is for roadster roof colors... - ebusch 2008-08-21 15:52:25 (38 views)

Can't wait to see it at Infineon in October :-) - joe@vwvortex 2008-08-20 08:23:57 (53 views)

Probably won't be broken in by Oct, so no track time. I'll try to get to the rest of the fun though. - Troy H 2008-08-20 08:44:50 (48 views)

My friend, if you saw the auto parking on campus, you'd know why I don't drive to school. - Troy H 2008-08-20 16:04:49 (45 views)

It's not the worrying, it's simply the fact that if you get there much after about 0730, you're - Troy H 2008-08-20 18:12:34 (58 views)

The older son, yes. - Troy H 2008-08-20 08:19:35 (50 views)

I bet he can't wait until he gets his license... LOL - quattrophinia 2008-08-20 08:47:54 (46 views)

Well, he's convinced he has to be 19, so the car will be 14 by then...he can probably have it. :) - Troy H 2008-08-20 09:44:38 (47 views)

LOL.... you'll have an R8 by then... - quattrophinia 2008-08-20 14:25:37 (39 views)

Thanks for your confidence, but that's a LOOOOONG shot. Unless, of course, you mean a - Troy H 2008-08-20 15:12:13 (70 views)

Nice.TTS vs 2.0Q chipped S-line.Worth the monetary difference?That's the question. - westton225 2008-08-20 06:38:38 (134 views)

I didn't think so (obviously). Now we just need someone to figure out how to recode the - Troy H 2008-08-20 09:51:05 (116 views)

Welcome to the Candy Corn family yo. - zerinNeedsMoreSTaSIS 2008-08-20 06:25:01 (57 views)

I refer to it as the citrus club. I have a yellow motorcycle, an orange car and a green van, lol. - Troy H 2008-08-20 09:45:24 (45 views)

Haha - zerinNeedsMoreSTaSIS 2008-08-20 10:07:08 (40 views)

Car looks great! A few things I noticed... - Phil G. 2008-08-20 05:10:58 (168 views)

Thanks, Phil...I love it too! Grille is the same as on '08s. - Troy H 2008-08-20 09:50:18 (53 views)

Looks like the exhaust gets the stainless tip treatment as well. Very glad I purchased those tips - Jeffc31337 2008-08-20 09:03:08 (52 views)

Only on the S-line. They had another '09 2.0T with regular tips. - Troy H 2008-08-20 11:44:08 (39 views)

Grill looks matte black vs. the glossy black or metallic grey - 353S 2008-08-20 07:17:47 (92 views)

Probably did what I did and take those stupid badges off first thing. - zerinNeedsMoreSTaSIS 2008-08-20 06:25:31 (55 views)

I like my little s-line badges. :( - Phil G. 2008-08-20 09:10:34 (50 views)

Precisely. Only badge still glued on is the rings on back. - Troy H 2008-08-20 08:20:38 (55 views)

What do you use? Hair dryer and dental floss? - BMWBig6 2008-08-21 10:18:15 (36 views)

Hair dryer and fishing line. Floss is weak & will break frequently. It will, however, leave - Troy H 2008-08-21 10:23:20 (49 views)
