Well dad followed suit in fine style this weekend.  Geez.  Back a year
and a half ago, I bought my '91 pearl V8 and dad had to one up me and
get the 92 from Dr. Jones.  Now a year an a half later, the day I drop
off my V8 in Jacksonville to the new buyer, dad sells the 92 in 15 min
to get a jetta tdi wagon.
 
Grrr..
 
Well, I am officially a traitor.  Last Sunday I bought this '97 Laser
Red A4 from the President of the Audi Club of Florida's wife.  90K and
going strong it had the turbo and timing belt replaced under warrenty at
around 55k (nothing wrong, they just hooked Christian up). Sport
suspension out of an 01 S4, 29mm front and 15 mm rear swaybars waiting
for bushings to go in it, APR Stage 1 ECU bringing it up to 200 HP 243
LbFt, s4 Zenons, 17in borbet wheels with Khumo exta supra 712's.  Not
too shabby at all.  And a Manual to boot.
 
All in all it is a great car, nice and quick on the low end and gets me
just where I want to.  
 
Here is a picture on the last day I had the V8 before I drove up to
Jacksonville.
