Just took a delivery.....2011 S-line Avant! Coming from M3forum....

[som3]

hello there.

I just took a delivery yesterday.
It's been 3 years since I moved back from US to Japan...
Couldn't really afford $400/month for parking.
But found a really nice parking with half of the market price.
so..I pulled a trigger!

So far, I've put 100 miles and haven't really got on it,
but styling wise (exterior, interior), it is just a master piece.

I need more time to comment on performance side of this car,
although, handling seems to get much much better on B8 generation.

anyway....pix pix

Congratulations! The B8 Avant styling is really gorgeous, probably the only wagon out there that makes me do a double take whenever I see one... especially with S-Line! (I'm sure all the sedan owners are jealous of the dual-side exhaust)

Is that Monza or Ice Silver?

Wow that place in Japan is really pretty. And I do agree that the A4 Avant is the prettiest wagon out there.

So beautiful! Just got my B8 Avant not long ago. Great cars, very distinct look. Welcome to Audi life.

Wow. What camera/lens combo was that if you know? Those shots look outrageously crisp!

thanks for all of your comments!

For GTI, it was taken by digital compact camera.
For R32 and M3, they were taken by canon 20D with 24-70mm F2.8
For A4, it was taken by canon 5D Mrk II with 28-70mm F2.8L and 17-40mm F4L
