Default My new 3.2TI

I just got my car back an hour ago after almost 1 month in the shop. All I can say is HOOOOOOOOOLY $#!T....

Can you say Active Autowerke's


This is an ugly pic of the engine bay taken as it was being delivered to me, unfortunately the early night came by the time I was out of the office and unable to take a better pic. I am sure this is only going to make you want more......


Full details tomorrow.

I'd love to go to the track once I learn how to launch on a RWD 5 speed. I have been driving DSG 6speed auto for 3 years so this will be fun, lol. I noticed my tail drifting a lot now and loving it. Can't wait to get my suspension on..

Just be careful it doesn't pass the front.

I know, it needs sway bars and strut bar with a drop to help reduce that drift.

A strut bar?
Any car can break loose in the right conditions.
