EXACTLY what I wanted!
About this Current Vehicle:
Searched until I found EXACTLY what I wanted: 06, A4, Torrid Red, Red Leather, Full Sport Appearance Package. The only hitch: I live in Indiana. I purchased a vehicle from a dealership in Oklahoma City. In May 07, I flew to OKcity and drove the car back. Took 11 hours. Had 3200miles on clock when I pulled away from the lot.

FRCs and modified rad cover
Got the red resprayed...the color difference was bugging me way too bad to just leave alone. It was off enough that i was embarrassed to show anyone. NOW, it looks awesome. I detailed my engine bay and took new pics. Let me know what you think!

Got the painted fuel rail covers and radiator cover back from the painter. Installed those. The red is off just a tad but still looks great!
Ported & polished the throttle body. HUGE difference in throttle response. Feels like i gained 25hp. Very pleased. Intake manifold is next.

Mods
Well I axed the headlight eyebrow idea and the rear wheel wickers looked retarded.
I've modified the radiator cover and it's getting sprayed red. The FRCs are also being painted red. The panel between the taillights is getting painted black and I'm going to blackout the taillights to match.
After those are done and on the car, I'm going to pulled the center stack and console and have it painted the same silver as the SAP grills.
At some point SOON, I need to pull the diffuser back off the car and have it cleared.

Ok. This is probably a stupid ? But whatever. What do you think about GTOs in general? I am asking this because you have a vehicle that I am thinking about purchasing... And well... I dont want to get in debt for something that Im going to hate in the fut
You asked me what a z28 take off exhaust was about 2 months ago lol - and I just noticed. I cut out a 2 3/4" stock Z28 exhaust w/the dual mailbox tips to replace my 2 1/4" single out system. Cook county sucks with exhaust tickets so my cutout
