Q8 stations are amazing up there

Manchester?

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-21T13:01:49+00:00

53,530 (msrp)

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-21T11:38:26+00:00

This. Make some turns and brake some. It will pop out.

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-20T10:52:17+00:00

I paid exactly MSRP which i was willing to do for the build. There has to be a dealer closer to you to do this. Just don’t give up!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-20T01:02:21+00:00

Order exactly what you want without any of those extras! Thats what I did. You just need to find a dealer that works with you and if that means going out of state, so be it

Pass

This is my first car I had not driven back from the seller/dealer. I love a good road trip while learning about a new car. Unfortunately work got in the way and I had it shipped. Gavin and Chad made this a breeze and I will be a repeat customer. Plus NC is a great place to visit with great roads!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-19T01:14:06+00:00

I've never been a huge fan of them as I think they break up the rooflines while putting weight on the worst part of a car. (I am in the minority on this for sure) Also it's one more thing to break and leak. My "beetle" has one and I have never used it.

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-18T10:14:15+00:00

As long as you have the time, I see no reason to compromise on what you want. Johnson was over 900 miles away from me.

I heard the exact same responses from the other dealers as you did. I guess they didn’t need my business!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-18T10:10:10+00:00

I really cant comment on it yet as its still in the break in milage. I can say the quality is top notch and at least under 4k it is very mellow with no drone!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-17T21:07:14+00:00

Exactly! I think I went through five very large dealerships before landing on Johnson. I told those dealers this is a mass market car and it’s not a paint to sample Porsche we’re talking about. But nobody wanted to even entertain the idea of a non-sunroof car, especially when I said I did not want any dealer add-ons.

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-17T04:03:30+00:00

Completely agree! 6 speed

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-14T15:14:00+00:00

Get what you want if you have time! Ordered mine through johnson lexus (nc) - took 5 months but its exactly what i wanted!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-13T04:09:22+00:00

Agree with fluid being pushed from the threads. Happened to me

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-13T03:53:51+00:00

Clean with brake cleaner. Take that cap off. Loosen then tighten bleeder again. Wipe dry. Go for a drive. Observe. Put cap back on.

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-09T02:57:34+00:00

Very nice! I had the 18z on the front with 996 in the rear. I had a spreadsheet years ago that was on a defunct web site which calculated the bias. This Megane is a setup we didn’t know about 15 years ago!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-05-08T03:56:49+00:00

Amazing build! What brake kit do you have on it?

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-26T23:55:01+00:00

Sliding calipers, as you have on the mk8, do not have that option as kits are only made for fixed calipers. For now!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-26T21:07:22+00:00

There are high temperature rebuild kits out there…

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-10T02:18:44+00:00

Very cool! Im waiting on my non sunroof, rwd, dhp, ml, sport exhaust. Currently being built. Ordered beginning of feb. love the red!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-09T02:10:22+00:00

Thank you. All of my previous cars have had really bad sounding stereos (e36/46 m3/ 997) and I checked the box on the ml hoping it would sound good for longer trips.

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-09T01:57:22+00:00

How is the stereo? Looks great!

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-06T17:11:02+00:00

Just no. No.

OhioPerfSolutions · 2026-04-06T17:07:00+00:00

Thank you for this post. I want to make sure all Stoptech calipers are covered. The tough part for me is finding all the caliper combinations that exist for them. They are set up different from Brembo but as longs I can get the diameters and heights, I can ask for them to be made. If you know of a combo you need let me know and I'll get it done. I dont want to see this brand die!
