Default "it looks much better in person" some said.....

but when I saw it sitting in the middle of the dealership showroom,it looked quite meh IMO.

People were not mesmerized by it or buzzing about the car.

Didn't want to waste my time getting acquainted with the interior but from a glance those seats looked really good.

Guess what car I'm referring to...yep you guess it.

It's just another Audi. Looks ok but nothing compared to MK1's great entrance.

Default Steve-

I'd love to, and I would, but:

The busted alternator/electrical goblin means my seat budget has moved to next year. &lt;sigh&gt;

I really do like your seats.

Default Hans- they were 53K for the seats I drooled upon in the delaership yesterday.

Sadly, InTTruder was getting probed for some electrical goblin that sidelined it enroute the Dragon.

The seats were small comfort.
