I know what you mean…my Audi is 12 years old and has the same paint. It still looks pretty good from a distance but when you get close up, it really needs some TLC. I’d love to get it repainted, but spending a couple grand on a daily driver just isn’t practical.

I love the way the coupe’s look. I noticed your posts up on AZ and I’m curious to see what those guys say.

I dunno, it’s tight but a tank and doesn’t have that great of a pickup. That one in particular looks saawwweet.  
Not sure what class…my luck prob sm with that seat. Otherwise sts, just a short throw shifter and suspension. The rest is stock.

Yea your still fine for STS. The air intake, exhaust, and ECU are all pretty much open also if you wanna do that stuff while your at it. Though a dirty part of me wants to see you turbo that bitch, toss on some race tires and go run SM.

no reclining back ☹ Like it makes a differnce. I need an handicap sticker or soemthing b/c my big ass is squeezing into a tiny coupe. wtf. I really don’t care, not like Im going out for the points race or anything. Just like to go out there, have fun and play fair in case anyone gets all shitty and starts bitching.

5hp? Hell no, I did it for street credit 🙂 Actually I just wanted some weight outta the car. Long as your working on this one and plan on autoxing it, give it a little front camber and some azenis (or RE01’s if you can find them). You should be able to beat up on some people then. Or just challenge Whitey and his drag car hehe.

UPDATE: Since my DD broke, I never planned to drive this thing as soon or as long as I have. Once the DD is fixed and done kicking me in the nuts repeatedly, this will be sold whole immediately, followed by the DD. Cars have left a bad taste in my mouth this year. I think it’s time to be more realistic and get something reliable with a warranty. Regardless, this Audi runs like a champ and is a perfect car to fix up, if you have the time/money.
