Yes, it does.  Although plenty of power for a fwdriver.  ESP is
perennially in 'off' position with that car....

	Yep... cheap thrills.  I bought mine from a fellow CO Audi
geek... a well maintained sport equipped A4 1.8tq.  I threw on a Koni
coilover kit and some 18x8's.  It already was chipped.  It isn't boring
in the power department, but after numerous years with the pumped up UrS
as the daily driver, it leaves you wanting more.

	Ha!  I'm driving a '04 Jetta 1.8t (one of 2 years they put the
180 bhp fwd TT motor in).  Lotsa sub 3,000 pound fun with a Dahlback
stage I chip (215 hp/250 lb-ft), 17*8 wheels and rubber and some H&R
Sports heh heh.  F-A-S-T!!!  And still under warranty!!!

		True... I just don't like maintenance processes that
begin with " 1) Remove engine. "

		Actually, I've found myself greatly entertained by my
latest ride... a little ole B5 A4 1.8t.  A rather small car, but very
fun nonetheless.  It's just a little short on poop... but that can be
fixed.

		And why do I get "d9d" everytime I try an follow one of
those audiworld links?

		You know... the S8 is a flat out fabulous looking car.
But I just can't
		make the leap.  How does one go from an UrS to an S8
without suffering
		at least some pain?  It has a slushbox... and it DOESN'T
have the all
		important hairdryer. 
		I'm not 20 anymore, but I still can't imagine driving an
automatic.  If
		there were a reasonable way to convert it to a 6
speed... I might
		consider.  As is, I just can't do it yet.

		Random ramblings....
