Thanks Jay. I thought people would hate it but so far mostly thumbs up.

Ha! Yep. What was with the crowds there? It was like Christmas season, then again that is normally the only time I go there so…

Such an awesome color. I actually saw a picture of it over the weekend on someone’s Instagram feed. Can’t wait to creep it in EA.

Thanks. My nephew showed me the Instagram picture. I actually talked to the guy, he had a sweet Golf R.

There have been a few pictures/videos of it. My 10 year old daughter said she hates riding in it because people stare and take pictures. lol

I was at Schmitts and the salesmen were just staring at it. No thumbs up or whatever, just staring.

wow, this is the best ‘went out for a…’ thread i think…

RS\_Anything is awesome… i dont like the rear 3/4 of the RS7 but that’s just a personal preference… these are incredible cars.

Congrats man. You really needed to "avoid the tax man this year huh? LOL 😉

Sorry to see the Carrera go, but I am sure you hardly drove it that much anyways…

Thanks guys.

I wrote off $350,000.00 last year thanks to the 179 rule. (New DMG-Mori machining center) 🙂  
Driving the Carreras S to Toy Barn to trade it in was the most I drove it. ☹

Toy Barn is a pretty cool spot. I went there with a friend when he picked up his R8.
