Default Picked up my silver 2.7T today with cross spoke wheels
Got my A6 today from Dave Strongs. Has the new Audi cross spoke wheels, that are made by BBS. I will try and post some pics later. I am having a clear bra installed today. And a blast driving it, any tips for me?

Default Congrats!! Pay attention when applying power upon exiting the twisties....
the engine/drivetrain we love so much can quickly put an inexperienced (relative to this particular car) driver at the outer limits of the vehicle's handling characteristics. Goose it coming out of your favorite corner and you'll know what I mean....its one of life's better experiences!!
