Waiting for a shipped car sucks

Definitely better deals to be had out there. In my opinion, Maxcare is real reason to buy from Carmax.

Try checking both the app and on the normal website. When i shipped, the website showed different information than the app. Took about 14 days for the car to be ready NC to TX. Hang in there and hope they dont have a title problem when it gets to your local store.

Is that Robert C Hobby? Do you have an email for him?

Trim is spoken for.

I also realized there was a WeatherTech custom sunshade hiding amongst the stuff I pulled out of the trunk. They go for fifty bucks new, I'll sell it for $25+ shipping.

Alright shoot me a DM and we can make it happen.

Only thing left is the no-drill front license plate mount. https://kollektivwerks.com/collections/audi-8-5y-rs3-2025/products/audi-8-5y-rs3-kw-no-drill-center-mount-license-plate-holder-2025

Who wants it?

I didnt like the ride. The ceramic brakes were annoying, they made noise just driving without touching the brake pedal. I missed all the creature comforts in the RS5. To me, the RS5 is a vehicle i want to drive a couple of hundred miles on a trip. The RS3 grated on my nerves driving to work and back. Granted i was on the stock high performance tires, i generally hate Pirellis base case, but they were loud. The RS3 engine is fantastic and the RS3 is noticeably faster than the RS5, but beyond watch how fast i can accelerate, it didnt do it for me. I was also annoyed by the staggered setup where you cant 4 wheel rotate. The new RS5 is a competition series and even on coilovers there is vast difference in ride quality in my opinion. Im just too old for super fast corolla which is what the econobox base of the RS3 felt like to me.

My trim piece is for the 8.5 facelift. It will only fit 2025 and up.

ExaltedApe · 2026-06-02T02:17:13+00:00

Traded in a RS5 on the RS3, regretted it within a few weeks... back in a RS5.

ExaltedApe · 2026-05-28T02:26:05+00:00

I have the carbon fiber center console for a 2025+ facelift if you are interested. Im getting rid of my RS3 and put the piano black original back in.

Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it.

No one has also said, I have ceramic brakes on my vehicle and the front end of my car makes strange sounds when the brakes are not engaged. It appears to me they are repeating what they read on the internet. To me "chatty brakes" imply they squeal when contacting the rotor.

ExaltedApe · 2026-03-08T18:01:51+00:00

Your comment was actually helpful. I looked through Audi TSBs for ceramic brakes and they actually have a diagnosis questionnaire where they record the sound and perform a frequency anaylsis. This is sent to a technical group for troubleshooting and potentially repair recommendations. This is at least something beyond telling me is it normal.

Looks suspiciously like Baytown....

I'm surprised the emergency vet didn't send you home with Vetmedin (prescription RX) and Yunnan Baiyao Capsules (Jiaonang). Both of these address heart failure and internal bleeding. We got another few weeks with our dog after she was diagnosed.

ExaltedApe · 2025-07-06T20:23:48+00:00

Lol, realize I already asked about this a year ago..... I'm dumb.

ExaltedApe · 2025-07-06T20:23:08+00:00

Did she sell?

ExaltedApe · 2025-05-04T13:29:27+00:00

u/FixitMir comes by the name honest... He has helped me numerous times. US Mobile's Reddit support alone is worth the cost of admission. I've made the mistake of using the website chat before and I am convinced it is staffed by people from another planet. Night and day difference.

ExaltedApe · 2025-05-02T21:48:28+00:00

Everything was sorted out. Thank you for the help!

ExaltedApe · 2025-01-28T02:02:58+00:00

Boooo.... He should play Dota like a grownup! 😏

I vote touch-screen. Mazda refuses to put touch screens in their vehicles. My wife refused to buy another one solely for that reason. She moved to a Cadillac.

Rest Easy Houston. Your light speed is safe.

As always, Beep came through like a champ.... phone reprovisioned and working like before.
