^^^^what was this thread about?

Vincent the torque feels stronger in the cgt way stronger than my old tts. All I can say about that repair is holy $hit. That's one expensive repair.

Vincent you should have one and sell the CS. That's the Porsche you need in the garage.

It's about you buying a few more cars and loaning them to me from time to time. My wife said she likes your spider.

I'm done buying. Just a couple on the radar with no space to park them close. I'm trying to talk Vincent into the cgt.

Sorry for the hi-jack David but I know you know I have a new love for Audi as well..

Mark that isn't a repair job. It's a 4 year routine service . $20K clutch job gotta sucks. In any case I would love to have a red one with red stitching.

Hi-jack? Where? This is how all post are. I love it.

Got the windows tinted today. Made a huge difference. Pictures suck again since it was getting dark out.

Anyone want to take some good pictures for me?





Here's a before picture for comparison


No plans on anything else really. Wheels will stay for now. I will run these tires until next winter, then they get a set of winter tires. Then in spring I may do a new set of wheels for summer time. I am actually liking the car the way it is.

Yeah the tint looks good. So I assume that car has the same 4.2 engine as the R8?

The S5 is a great looking car...catches my attention everytime I see one on the road. What % tint did you go with? I'm guessing darker than 35%, but perhaps the pictures are deceiving.

Not exactly the same. Detuned a bit. Different cams. different tuning, and some other things.

Sounds good to me. I suck at taking them. I need a new avatar with the new car, but need some good pics for that.

35% of the sides. Looks darker in the pic due to lighting. Rear window is 15%

If Exotics at Renton is on this weekend, I will be there. Would like to do Gig Harbor this weekend, but my kids have sporting events on Sunday.
