Formal introduction

Hi Guys!

I've been active on the B5 forum even before I got my B5 in May of 1997. More recently, I've been lurking here on the B7 forum.

Thanks to all of you, especially those of you who have posted photos of your cars. Your posts helped me choose colors and options for my B7 and kept me from going crazy while waiting 3-months for my car to be delivered.

Thanks!

Very nice! Were you as impressed as I was when you traded in your B5?

Oh Yeah! Night and day between B5 and B7 in terms of sophistication.

The B5 was Audi's 'come-back' car and it put Audi on the map by offering a lot of bang for the buck.

Audi is moving ahead with much more confidence now and it shows in their design. I can't think of any car at any price that fits my needs and desires better than my B7.

I am more impressed with my car each time I drive it. I ordered sport suspension without being able to test drive it, but my concerns about a rough ride were unfounded. The sport suspension nails it in terms of ride quality vrs handling IMO.

My name is Robert and I'm an Audi-holic.
