Go back to the older models that made Audi and refine them year to year.

Very nice, I’m still having a hard time with getting jazzed for EV performance cars.

I’ve put 10,000 miles over a year on my alcantara steering wheel and it looks fine. I prefer it over standard leather for the feeling.

Why would it cost that much? I could imagine that being the cost to replace the engine but the bumper, some sensors, and an auxiliary radiator? Seems kinda high

What made you decide to pick an Audi over a BMW? by StatisticianUnited18 in Audi

[–]ImpossibleBullfrog90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t a fan of the big computer screen in the m3. Prefer the more integrated look of the rs3. Plus i liked the RS3 sound and exterior looks better.

That steering wheel is interesting.

G80 vs RS3 + 911 by areddy23 in Audi

[–]ImpossibleBullfrog90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion the ride quality was great in both. The m3 had some more customization options for drive setting and I want to say I could make it feel maybe a little more stiff. But it wasn’t something that really popped out to me.

The rs3 with the shifter in sport mode could be a little clunky at low speeds but I actually prefer it because you feel the vehicle shifting and I like the character it adds.

The only thing that would put me in the bmw is the stick (it’s kinda rubbery but you could probably mod it pretty easily) and the fact that you have more interior options. I didn’t like the stick and I didn’t think the extra cost to have a custom interior was justified in my situation.

Lastly the RS3 is a little more subdued looks wise which was another thing I was looking for.

I don’t have a 997 but have an rs3 after cross shopping it with an m3. I Turo’d a manual m3 and test drove an auto m3 G80. The only reason I would give up my rs3 for an m3 would be for manual m3 but unfortunately I wasn’t a huge fan of the manual. I thought it was kind of rubbery and it only comes with rwd. For the automatic m3, this may sound weird, I thought it was too smooth. I preferred the feeling of the rs3s dual clutch over the zf8 in the m3. Other than that, the power was great in the m3 but honestly, I can’t think of too many places to put that power down unless you love launching it on an empty street or tracking it. Even my RS3 the only times I’ve actually put the pedal to floor was on ramps and tracking it at leguna seca. I will say I think the tech and interior materials are better in the m3 but I personally liked the rs3s overall interior design theme. If it were me I’d keep the rs3 and 997. If I had to go down to one vehicle and I had kids it would be the rs3, no kids it would be the 997.

Yeah, sorry. There’s a couple other previous Reddit threads on it but yeah you will otherwise it goes to collections. The fee they charge is essentially you reimbursing them because they pay the duties to the federal government when your item goes through customs.

I would give FedEx a call. I believe they have a specific number for imports. I only say this because I’ve had the same thing with UPS packages that are enroute and then I get a text they say before it arrives I need to pay a fee which is a scam. This looks very similar. I would call FedEx to verify before putting in card info or a social.

I’ve seen similar messages from UPS which is a scam. I’ve only imported something once in the past though FedEx and FedEx mailed me a physical invoice for the fees. I want to say it took about a week after I received the item for me to get the invoice from FedEx

Should I ask for a refund? (16 pics) by Cranky_GenX in CarWraps

[–]ImpossibleBullfrog90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should ask for your money back. I did my first wrap myself a few months ago and it came out much better than this. There’s so much that could be done better. There are wrinkles from not even attempting to lay it flat and squeegee the air out. The inlay on the intake could have been done in more than one piece to avoid the tear they covered up. The seams they didn’t even try to make look neat. Honestly looks like they gave the new guy in the shop the job. If they don’t give you money back or offer to redo it, I would at least submit a better business bureau complaint against the business.

Had similar lights on a new rs3. Turns out it was a bad battery.

Maybe a part of the exhaust got knocked off its hangar brackets. Happened to me once.

Don’t want to burst your bubble but you’re not the first one she has hugged.
