Default Love that car. - I'm hoping Audi offers the Mustang brown interior for 08'

But I doubt that they will since this is the last year for the model.

Default Thx - First White Car i've had in awhile...

I had Roadblock - applied to the front end, fenders, and door sills. Detailing will take alittle extra effort - clay bar and spray to keep those surfaces as WHITE as the IBIS. Considering doing a Light Tint on Windows...Suggestions ?

Default I'm in Ann Arbor...and my RS4 is filthy ;-)

I won't put the summer tires on until next month probably. I've gotten a car sideways in sunny, 39 degree weather in those rubbers.

Yikes! Sideways?! Was the ESP off?

I'm going to have to be even more careful...

Default It was in my TT a few years ago

The ESP was not off and the TT had Quattro. I wasn't even going particularly fast. I was on some windy curves and the whole car just started sliding into the oncoming lane and the backend came around on me.

The rubber in the high perf tires doesn't really grip the road below 40 degrees, regardless of rain or snow. So take it easy! :-)
