Anyone got any good pics of a V8 quattro? ;-)

Probably the best place to find V8 parts...Plus a lot of pictures...you'll see my A4 on there too!

nah, I just need to drive my dad's every once and a while

and then hop back in my A4 and I'm happy...

the place i miss my V8q is when I'm cruising at 90 on the highway at 2 am... in the a4, it just doesn't feel that comfortable. The wind can really push you around.

In the V8, if you're not doing 90 it isn't happy. And believe it or not, you an push that 3800 lb beast around clover loops quicker than an a4 due to the torsen center and torsen rear. it just straight up moves!

0-60, not so good. It really isnt geared for low end acceleration. Quite frankly, up to 35 it's a dog! I got beat by a stock Coupe GT! However, anything over 50 in Sport mode and your in for a treat!
