Default A4=$24k, APR=$399 learning something new about my car=priceless.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/990/97headlight.jpg"></center><p>O.k., I'm sure every other A4 owner in the world knows this, but I just discovered something new to me today.

It's been raining all afternoon, so I'm just hanging out in the garage, Rain-X-ing the windshield and headlights when I notice the bulb sizes (H7-high, H7-low and H1-fog) are stamped on the headlights!

Cool!


That's it, you may now resume your surfing.

PS - Drove a MB C320 Friday. Felt weak to me, but then I'm spoiled on my A4 and wife's Maxima. At least I'll be getting $75-Amazon gift certificate from MB for flogging a C-class.

Default Yea, I got a postcard from MB a while back...

I'm not sure how I got on that mailing list, but to get the $75-gift you have to take the postcard to MB dealership, drive a C-class and they put a sticker on postcard. Mail postcard and then (hopefully) I will get gift code.

As I expected, when I arrived at dealership (MB of Memphis) one of the salesmen quickly guessed why I was there and offered to just give me the sticker. I told him I was at least two-years away from buying a new car and wasn't really that interested in a MB. But also told him that I have never driven a MB and would like to if he had the time.

He was cool and asked me what I would prefer, the C230, C280 or C320. Duh! The C320 was very solid, but slow.
