Default I expect that if our cars were parked side-by-side, ...

yours would get more attention and favorable comments. Hopefully we can meet up some time at an Audi driving school and put this theory to the test -- perhaps at Road Atlanta next year?

Default well said greenie. The only thing that made me mad was that

noone asked this guy for his opinion on my ride. The thread was completely about some different topic. I have nothing against peoples comments on my ride and I appreciate them too, but Attacking other people is different. I had many people commenting on the car when I first posted the pictues and there were disagreements on some parts which I totally understand, but take a look at the way he stated his comment where noone even asked him to, it would make anyone mad if it was their car.

I totally agree with the comments you made though.

Default I hope i can make it. by the way today I saw

a beautiful black S8 with 20" brabus rims with 255/35/20. black S8 is my next car for sure, not doubt about it. I also noticed that the car was not lowered, but the rear had no gap at all compare to my car which has a gap even though lowered on H&Rs. I think that putting bigger tires with the wheel offset that i have in the rear causes that. I am thinking of getting 20" with the same setup you got on your car. I think it will look better on the A8.

Default My two cents

I agree we should keep the conversation amicable and on topic. But in Krisko's defense, Scarface, he never attacked you. He stated an opinion on A CAR, not on you. You have to be able to separate the two (hint hint). And it WAS made in the context of a thread about a car that had been modified with yellow paint. He simply was tying that thread to his opinion on your mods. You chose to take it personally. I appreciate everything you've done to your car to personalize it, but not everyone will like it, and you need to have thick enough skin to accept that. No need to go off on Krisko with personal attacks and epithets when he simply stated an opinion on your car after seeing it in your sig.

I'm quite sure not every person I've met likes me, and probably says so to others when I'm not around, but I don't think they are a**holes because of it. That's life, brother.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.....

Default I guess you are right

I apologize to krisko if I was rude. Maybe because I never criticized anyone about their cars even though they did something that I didn't like, krisko's comments were kind of harsh for me at first, but I am over it. I appreicate your comment.
