That looks F@@king stunning its definitely in the polishing procedure where they've inflicted the swirls as it very glossy looking especially for Daytona l thought you'd chosen a saloon

And the cause of my dispair…

Maybe I'm getting old but I felt similar about mine when I first saw it on the ground.Walking back to car with Dog and just thought 'Why would anyone think this needs lowering?' wheels sit pretty nice in wheel arches in my eye.
(Apologies for the car needing a wash)

That's a pretty awesome startup sound! Did you give it a little rev at the same time or is that just a start in RS Performance mode?@Daggerit what's all that then that's caused it to go back to Audi?
My cars started to make some serious disgusting noises on startup. This is completely stock.

Yeah RS Performance start. Revs slightly higher on the crank over. oh sh.. not good with the alternator belt :|That's a pretty awesome startup sound! Did you give it a little rev at the same time or is that just a start in RS Performance mode?
The last picture in my little group is the alternator belt. It decided that it didn't like being in one piece or attached to the pulleys anymore so had to go back to Audi for a replacement.
Plus the big like chin spolier and the rear like diffuser man and i'm then like away with the like superstarsTut,Tut...Mike, you won't get any Instagram likes unless you lower it and stick spacers on.......
I have noticed mine with the ASR kit appears to be getting noisier, maybe due to the 'extra' use that the open exhaust route now gets ?@Daggerit what's all that then that's caused it to go back to Audi?

Is that Los Angeles in the distance ?

Yup. Newcomb’s ranch is in the mountains to the north.
It’s a nice 1hr30min loop from my door to Newcomb’s and then back to my house.

Finally got the opportunity to take a few quick pics of all our Audi cars together
That is some fleet! Is that the "standard" yellow or a special colour?Finally got the opportunity to take a few quick pics of all our Audi cars together
It’s actually a wrap by inozetek called super gloss sand. That’s the color in the sun, in the shade and night it’s brownish.That is some fleet! Is that the "standard" yellow or a special colour?
R8 on my bucket list, must have one before my body gives out.

Have they fixed your car yet?That's a pretty awesome startup sound! Did you give it a little rev at the same time or is that just a start in RS Performance mode?

Just my thoughtsNo the dealer had them done when new.
I like the mirror caps though, won’t be changing them.

Just my thoughtsI always think wheels and mirrors should be matching, like women think shoes and handbag should match
Did they also do the door/roof trims black as well ?
Yes, they actually had it done by Thursday which I was fairly impressed by. Apparently it was just a faulty belt because all the pulleys ran true and free so they couldn't figure out what had caused it.Have they fixed your car yet?
I 'used' to think mine wasnt a long term car either, but since the ASR controller has been on i'm liking it a little more now, it seems to have given it a little more character-which a standard car lacks in bucket loads, it could do with a little more induction noise and I think I would be happier.Yes trims were wrapped.
I’m not doing much if anything to this car, as on any given day I could just decide to move it on.

But that 'electric' car pulling up at the lights scenario is still pi$$ing me off, it's like end of an era that I don't like too much, but also don't really like the alternative yet either
I think i'm getting picked on tbhI don’t get involved in ‘traffic light gran prix’ any more, just makes us seem like DH’s and not worth it.

Someone felt the need to overtake me in an ID4 the other day in a place where you would never normally overtake. There not even fast! I think some EV owners think they are quicker than they are. I didn't respond.I think i'm getting picked on tbhand to be fair if I had a decent performing EV I would go Golf R/RS3/M2 etc 'hunting' as well, in any traffic light grand prix an EV draws virtually no attention at all and you have nothing to loose,
If the ICE car makes loads of noise and clears off everyone thinks as you say 'DH' , If the EV clears off no one notices anyhow (except for you sitting there in your RS3)
I'm afriad it's a win either way for the EV
More EVs means less cars doing roads like the NC500. At least until they sort the range with better batteries or faster charging..Someone felt the need to overtake me in an ID4 the other day in a place where you would never normally overtake.

You seem obsessed with EV Mike , you should get one! I say the plaid version then you can destroy everyone at the lights.
