    Knock on wood, but I have had no issues with any of my Audi's that I didn't create in the first place. So I recommend them if you need a new car. As for the R8... they are sweet but a little out of my price range. The only thing I don't like about my new car is the 10 spoke rims, but I knew that going into the purchase. I am looking around at aftermarket ones to replace them. But I might wait for summer... have the current ones take all the winter/spring abuse first.

    Old Lexus LS400 x 2 (1991)
    My wife was rammed into from the drivers side door, in the previous LS400. She walked away, so we replaced it with same. I bought a blue one whilst looking for a replacement pearl white one, she didnt like the colour so I kept it for me. Great cars, little 4 Litre V8, cost about $8K and run forever.

    2008 Toyota 4Runner. Great car, lot of stupid issues. It does everything I need it to do, but last Toyota I'll ever own. No dealerships I want to deal with close by, either.

    Hey Squirrelman - I used to own a 76 Alfetta sedan, royal blue with tan interior, 2.0L with Spica mechanical fuel injection. Was my old man's car and he gave it to me. Unfortunately, it rusted away~

    '94 Ford Telstar TX5
    '90 Ford Bantam 1/2 ton pick-up (Guys from the UK might recognise it, based on the old FWD Escort)
    And no, I'm not a Ford fan at all, the Telstar is really a Mazda.

    99 vw new beetle
    [​IMG]

    71 super beetle
    [​IMG]

    I got the 71 in a trade for this bad boy. 1.5l na diesel 5spd
    [​IMG]

    That was my favorite car of all time. I should have never traded it for the 71. stupid project cars
    taking all the money away from potential motorcycle projects.

    the 99 has a full magnaflow system (cat and all), k&n cold air kit, poly bushings on sway bar and control arms, and soon to be a 272* cam with dual valve springs and a 93 octane tune. It almost depresses me that I have beaten v6 mustangs with it when it only had the cat back system and the intake.

    here are all 3

    and yes thats a cb antennea on the rabbit. my handle was "rabbid rabbit" for the fact that it looked crazy and belched black smoke from having over 200,000 miles and nothing but oil, tires, and brakes since it was new in 84.
