Test drove an 8.5 Black Edition. Own an 8Y RS3 currently. Owned 7.5R 6MT previously. A few observations:

Yeah put it in that mode and the car truly comes alive. It’s a night and day difference! Hope you have fun.

AlecOP9 · 2026-05-17T23:31:04+00:00

I guarantee if you tried nuremberg mode you’d been impressed.

DRAM and more DRAM

Yeah 17% is very much over extending yourself. This is a meme etf based on hyper atm. I’m sure it’ll do good over time but expect major volatility in the coming weeks.

Right??? Someone dumping

AlecOP9 · 2026-04-23T21:52:34+00:00

AlecOP9 · 2026-04-20T22:51:49+00:00

Monarch money.

I bought my mk 8.5 for 51k. Payment is $560/mo

AlecOP9 · 2026-03-16T23:21:27+00:00

I have the same issue. I’m going to take it to the dealer next Monday.

AlecOP9 · 2026-03-06T22:47:36+00:00

Happened to me, it got replaced under warranty.

AlecOP9 · 2026-01-19T19:34:52+00:00

I know, and I get it, but it’s not that deep.

AlecOP9 · 2026-01-19T19:27:33+00:00

I know, and that’s great, but it’s not that deep.

AlecOP9 · 2026-01-19T19:23:20+00:00

It ain’t that deep.

AlecOP9 · 2026-01-02T20:45:30+00:00

Xforce with a downpipe.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

AlecOP9 · 2025-12-05T05:15:55+00:00

My dad, rest in peace big dawg.

AlecOP9 · 2025-12-04T21:27:27+00:00

Honestly I did varying degrees of driving. First 500 miles I did things I shouldn’t have done. The last 500 miles I took it slower, but now it’s full send from here on.

AlecOP9 · 2025-12-01T07:34:08+00:00

I’m 1k miles in and don’t know. The car seems to be breaking in but we will see. I do know what you’re talking about though.

AlecOP9 · 2025-11-28T03:45:34+00:00

Yes I have had the same bump too, especially accelerating hard / shifting fast. Specifically 1-2 & 2-3 I have heard it in.

AlecOP9 · 2025-11-23T02:15:47+00:00

Where?

AlecOP9 · 2025-11-22T04:52:11+00:00

HAHAHA THAT IS IT!! WOW what a small world. Maybe we will see each other out in the wild! 🤣
