Ahh I got ya!.... reliability as far as leaving you stuck somewhere...


hey MWARSH dont get me wrong I mean hey ...I love my G also...as I'm sure Jason did and still does...but it aint a walk in the park ...
between the clicking axles, replacing the tranny, greasy windows, rattles galore, window motors, radio going out, brake fade, unexplainable uneven tirewear, etc etc etc

G's get harder to love ...at least for me.then you take a step back and look at it and all goes away.you fall in love all over again...(sadly until the next damn thing goes wrong)...lol

SELLOUT!!!! Just kidding man, the S4 is sweet. Can't wait to go for a ride in it again, and maybe drive it??

Once I get my new G, and get good at driving it, we'll go do some runs on the highway.....just don't get caught, cause I can get out of tix, you can't.

J - you beat me to the post!! lol I was going to post the pics I took yesterday - but yours came out much better!!

To everyone else who didn't see the car at the meet today - It is incredible!! I had the privledge of going out with J the other day. I got to experience the unbelievable V8. This car has everything to offer and more!! The power and handling is in a whole different league than the G. Great upgrade.

Best of luck!!

Very nice car jason.
Saw it together and its gorgeous.

Granted I really don't know much about Audi's apart from the electrical issues I keep hearing from others online.

From what I'm hearing the car is fast and comfortable.
Glad you like it and good luck with.

Thanks guys for all the comments... I still REALLY miss my G. Wish I could've kept both, but financially, that didn't make any sense.

But I have this V8 monster to play with now...

Kyle and I did some "runs" on the way back, and it was fun. At the Thruway after the EZ-Pass, he "tried" to pull away (even tho I was stuck behind a truck to start)... but I said to myself, "He's not pulling away from me!! And stuck to his rear up to a buck" lol

This was with ~200lbs of added unsprung weight (his bro) while he had his wife (a buck... maybe?). It was fun... Freeway runs are definitely fun, and hard to keep remotely close to the speed limit.

Haha - I failed to mention the few runs we did. I wanted to see what J's new ride had against the G and it was exactly what I expected. At around 70 we went at it till a little over a hundred and he was pulling away from me the whole time!! And the toll booth run.....let's just say I had an unfair advantage and he still stuck on my a$$ the whole time. Fun times - props to J for taking my brother so I didn't have to have 3 in the G. He says thanks - he had a blast in the new ride!!!

Also forgot to mention the "Doubling" of the off-ramp speed limit (you know, those yellow off ramp signs that "recommends" what speed you should take it?)...

From 287 to Garden State, the Yellow Speed sign said 45mph... I tried to double it. I got it to around 80-85mph with no hick-up, so tire squeel, nada... the AWD just sticks! Definitely fun...

Then talk to me, I'm on my 3rd transmission within the 3 years I've owned it. I don't beat on the car, its a daily highway commuter and I don't have traffic. The syncros keep going on me. The first replacement tranny went after 7 MONTHS! I've also had the radio replaced twice, my window motors both replaced, my door lock actuator just went, it had rattles, groans and squeeks that Infiniti can't/won't/doesn't want to fix and generally, I'm ready to jump ship with Vance, Jason and Duc.

F*ck infiniti, they can lick my sweaty prosecutorial balzac.

Hey Jason, BEAUTIFUL CAR! I hope you enjoy it and it keeps you safe! We have to get together again soon, maybe show off your car to the squad?

i believe that it depends on the car because my mom has the 06 a6 3.2 the car is great no problems wat so ever i also no many people with audis and none of them have had any problems and the service is great at anchor audi
