you got something in mind for trade yet?

I'm not sure really. I'm down to one car at the moment my A4 which I really have never enjoyed.
I sold my S4 in the winter. I picked up a 337 GTI to replace that but it wasn't practical so I sold that in January or February.
Soon as I fix the A4 I may trade it in for a lease on new S4 or buy one out right. Depending on what financing options I have, my sweet spot is around 400-600.
I'm also playing with the idea of a 335i x drive coupe because they're pretty cheap. After I get that sorted out I'm pretty hell bent on an RS4 at the moment, although I'm considering V8 S5 coupes it's just finding them at a decent price point with less than 60k miles.

It's really a pain in the neck because I'm trying to save up for some property projects this year.

Carbon buildup is like 3-400$ done every 30k miles. Talk about hyperbole on your part.

:heh:


BMW fanboys are beyond corny.
How am I a BMW fanboy? I really don't care who makes the car as long as its good. I drive a VAG product currently. Bottom line the RS4 will cost more to maintain. That's why comparing new to used is useless.

I finally saw a 435i in person the other day. I pulled up right along side of it and I must say that it is one beautiful car. :wow: If only the N55 was as mod-friendly as the N54.....

Yeah this thing is bad in person. One of boys has the 428 just got it its real nice.

The 428? The engines that go into the BMW 28's are horrible. Slow. Unresponsive.

The 428 is way overpriced.

Sidenote: I drove a CLS63 AMG for 4 years and only sold it because I'm moving across coasts. I was either going with the 528 (535 would have cracked the payment ceiling I set for myself) or a GS350 Fsport. After driving the 528 I went with the GS (without even driving it). The 28 engine is garbage. Maybe I was spoiled by my 63. I don't know.

You think most people care though? Its for stunting,looking cool, things like that for at least half. Cats ain't worried about no YouTube review on drive quality or no shyt like that. It look nice when you out and can it do normal city/hwy driving quick enough? We know the answer to that so all that other stuff that's just personal to each person.

It's an alright looking car but it is huge. It's probably as big as my four door A4 lol.

I had a 5 cylinder Audi which probably weighs as much the 428 or whatever they're calling it, I'm sure it's quick enough for the weight but it wont be fast.


Picking up an RS4 or B8 S4 this summer. After that I'm looking at stick Turbo's or GT3's.


Can't stand the direction cars are going.


key difference between audi and BMW

FWD = shyt. I have never owned a FWD car in my life.

My wife has a Mini cooper S, which is fun to drive. However FWD is not a real driving experience.


the M235 is probably BMWs best car to come out in years. Lightweight, tossable, Balanced and nice looking.

The 4 series looks like a boat.

I saw a 4-series for the first time yesterday too, on the highway. It is really nice.

The majority of Audi's aren't fwd. The systems with awd on the sports platforms are rear wheel biased as well.

I really like the M235 but I feel that it is overpriced. I just realized they have an awd version which is cool but it doesn't come with a stick.

The 4 series is huge, especially the coupe. I don't like the lines on it either.

The new M3/M4 is a nice car as well but again it seems very large. I also feel it's really expensive for what you're getting. I've driven the last two M3's and the E46 is the best one imo. The E92 is large as well and I'm not a V8 guy.

I ended up picking up a B8.5 S4 a couple of months ago, no regrets.
