[s-cars] Worthy projects (was Alum..was UrS $)

[Taka Mizutani]

Elijah-
I think you're taking this discussion way too personally. I don't think
anyone really disrespects your car. Heck, the whole reason we're all on this
list is because at one time or another, we had or considered owning an UrS
and have liked it to some degree, right?

It's a heck of a car, no doubt, but this is a very relevant concern of many
that as the UrS ages well past 10 yrs. now, people look to a replacement,
considering how good Audi is at keeping parts in stock and keeping the parts
catalogue current. (sarcasm intended)

I'm always comparing the S60/V70R to a chipped UrS with suspension mods,
which probably isn't really a fair comparison, esp. once you factor in big
brakes. Stock for stock, I'd take the V70R in the driveway over an UrS all
day long- the UrS doesn't have the power, brakes, or handling- *stock vs.
stock*. A modified UrS compares very well to a lot of cars. I'd take a full
RS2 UrS with big brakes and custom-valved Bilsteins and lowering springs
over my stock V70R, definitely.
