Hi all,
Since I can't make up my mind I figured I'd start a thread and get all of your comments on if I should pursuit this new path or not.
Long story short: Had a 2012 MCS, mod bug, track, kart-feel, unrealiableAF, sold, leased a 2017 A3 1.4tfsi MT.
Now its true what they say, once the mod bug stings...it stays forever. Hell I even put a Remus catback on my A3, RS4 rep wheels, lowering springs, and the honeycomb grill. DAMMIT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO STAY STOCK.
But anyways, I've always contemplated getting a second car as a weekend toy. The MCS was my daily as well as the A3, but modding your daily isn't necessarily the best idea, especially if you want to keep it super clean and looking fresh every time you drive it...and those dam rock chips fml.
So as the title says, I'm letting the internet decide if I should get a 2004 S3 8L 225.
Bear in mind I don't have any mechanical experience, I would have a shop do it all, not looking for 500hp on stock internals, I'm more of the aesthetics kind rather than huge power, I live in Chile but the VAG community is fairly big, hoping it will more reliable than a 2012 Mini Cooper S dear lord not fun.
So what do you think?
Here are some pics of my current daily 8v and a 8l on sale:
