Default New addition

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/29460/new_avant.jpg"></center><p>Picked up a new 2008 Avant Saturday from Continental Audi. Dolphin Grey / Ebony interior. 2.0T quattro tip w/ paddles.

I decided to try a lease this time around for Elaine. Also wanted to wait a couple years for the new products and technologies like diesel to arrive in the states. So hopefully we are in a good position to transfer into something new in 3 years.

I would like to get the new A5/S5. Got to drive one on the North track Saturday as well. A lot of fun as is. The S5 feels lighter than the B6 S4. Clutch is grabby and the shifting is short. Brakes are good too. Car felt well balanced and easy to manage. Throttle still digital though compared to my cable in my B5. Seating position was good and I felt planted even with standard belts.

Russ, thanks for the polka presets on the radio.
