Whew! Long day for me. Left at 6:45am, back here at 9pm...
Flight to JFK and back to Rochester. 300 miles drive back. This car is a winner. Period. Throttle response is sick and the chassis is dialed. Is it firm...yes it's firm. Car feels like it can do anything and I've been driving a Cayman daily.
AND...I got 21.6 MPG with three major parking-lot style traffic jams. I filled it up and the numbers are real.
OK, pics, pics. I'm tired. I just washed it to get the bugs off the thing. Phantom pics on Tuesday sometime.
It does feel like the clutch take-up action is improved here and requires no ankle gymnastics while attempting to blend the throttle. Oh, did I mention the Sport button. Boo-ya! -Pete
Thanks to Tony and everyone at Danbury Audi. What a facility that is.

glad to hear you made it safely....
I guess my return trip mileage wasn't a fluke...got 320 miles on my first tank of gas. I agree w/you on the clutch too, they got that problem solved for sure.
Bring on the mods!
