    The first couple have landed in Canada (we got the first two models )

    Looks pretty awesome!

    Note the flower style rotors...

    Is that the one that is supposedly going to a 16 year old kid courtesy of his parents?

    RS5 is a mean car. I'd love to see the new RS4 avant come over here...but I'm not holding my breath

    Haha I heard something about one of them being sold to a young kid, no idea how young though. We have quite a few customers like that. We sold a TT-RS to a 19 or 20 year old when they first landed (February I believe) because his RS4 was "too slow".

    Yeah there are a couple kids around here like that. One kid, maybe 17, traded in his 2012 S4 with APR pulley/tune for a 2013 Boss 302 Mustang because his S4 didn't have enough power

    Yeah....... he needs a solid rear axle so that he can hide the fact that he has no clue how to drive a car

    Audi is the girl who was really cute in high school, but now puts on way too much makeup in order to try and hang out with the hot girls.

    those rotors will make for one rough ride if your wheels have been liberated while waiting for the light and you have to make it out of there before the rest of the car gets liberated from you.

    When your wheels get stolen from your car, you will have a rough ride as you try to get out that hell hole as fast as possible before someone steals your car, because the rotors are "flowered" and not round.
