Default Do you ever get that feeling driving when...

The car is running absolutely perfectly: alignment is perfect, engine running smooth, beatiful sunny warm day, not a spec of dirt on the car or inside, and you are driving a one most unique and beautiful cars ever made?


Ever since I got my car back from the alignment re-work, the car is just driving perfectly. Not a hint of torque steer, running like on rails, and just a gas to drive. Damn I love this car! I can hardly wait for the new one and all the mods that will be done for putting some bigger numbers down.

I've got a grin on my face every time someone does a double take at my car. A women is at a cross walk, and mid way she turns to stop and compliment me on my car. Countless other stories like this, and it always feels good.

Default If you find yourself alone, riding in the green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled

...for you are in Elysium, and you're already dead!

I always think of that quote immediately following a CEL going off. Makes me laugh every time.

Default C'mon you guys, you got me all wrong....

It's all about timing, and right choices. I don't make many mistakes, because I plan things out well in advance, and this is another area I won't make a mistake on. The FWD was never a mistake because it still is essentially a TT (albeit not quattro). In the long run, my waiting means the car has to be next to perfect. That's all that I am achieving with all my "waffling" as it appears to many here.

Default I felt that way once... then I changed the intake manifold and now my car is running like $hit

Doesn't help that I have zero time to work on the car. But on the bright side, it's not going anywhere and it's staying in my garage!
