So the wife and I went to a BBQ at her parents today. Like usual I have to be the center of attention and park the car on my father-in-laws driveway (everyone else parks on the street), couple of my wifes relatives were commenting about how nice the Audi looks. None of them could believe that it's 5 1/2 yrs old. Guess it just shows how timeless this body style is. Plus the tasteful mods contribute to the ageless beauty.

Indeed. I don't think I can bring myself to "upgrade" to the fish mouth look on the C6 or A8. Sigh
