God damn this car rocks!
Oddly enough, whenever bryce and I talk about stuff, something related seems to happen (ack).
So yesterday we were talking about how quickly and sneakly the speed comes in this car....
Well last night, I was driving back from SFO. I was tired and I was definately not at my most alert (you've done it too... I just wanted to go home).
Anyway... I'm coming up some hill on 101... I was trying to hold the speed at around 70-73 or so... since I was the only person on the roads at 3am, and obviously I'd stand out like a sore thumb.
Just as I'm about to crest the top of the hill... i hear a BEEEEEEEEEP..... WTF?! Look down and I'd just tripped my speed warning (set at 80.. beeps at 85). WTF?!@ I didn't mean to accelerate up the hill.. I didn't feel a thing!! So I let up on the gas...... just as I crest the top (crusing down to under 75 now), what do I see over on the shoulder sitting in the dark but mr CHP....
Damn you Audi for making a car that so effortlessly breaks the law when I'm not paying attention! Thank you Audi for recognizing that it's exactly that and giving me that speed warning. I think I'd have my liscence suspended by now if it wasn't for that little speed warning thinggy....
Oh yeah... I broke 23k miles... it's slightly over 10 months old... and I've got no major issues whatsoever... goddamn this car rocks! =)

Well in the last month, I've seen another Imola on San Thomas a 3 times or so
Maybe that was you? I'm actually up in sacramento, but I've been making a lot of trips to the Intel area of santa clara.

I've got jersey plates and a Penn State sticker in the window ... beep and wave! =)
Hrrrm ... I wonder if you are the imola that caused me so much grief a few weekends ago. I was out of town and told everyone I couldn't make it to their parties...
I came back and everyone swore they saw me driving around town... heh...
