can i get a witness posto, pk, paskalooney literally- i hear you all. here
i am with a s6 avant "garage queen" and an admittedly entertaining
modified golf tdi beater looking at the future of automobiles- not to
mention audi and not seeing much of interest. i agree audi left the path of
the enthusiast
in the late 90's and currently does not want to import many cars with manual
trans. this may be blasphemy to some, but i actually like the fact that my
s6
doesn't have EDL- i like my diff lock dispite its limited usage- i always
know what my car is doing. no electronic nanny for me. - rob
