Looking forward to being part of the community.
I'll shut up for now.

UPDATE
Finally
Took delivery of the Avant on 13 Feb 2012.
It’s been a long road in finally deciding to go down this path, but I’m glad I did and I won’t bore you with the details… at least not for now.
It’s a 2011 A4 Avant, Prestige Package, S Line in a pretty cool Pearl Red over Black Alcantara interior, (all wagons should be as “sporty”)
As the story goes it was a VW of America “executive car” so it has every possible option including lottsa stuff I have no idea how to use yet; radar controlled cruise control? Really?
Which means it has more goodies to play with and more goodies to eventually fail.
I bought it sight unseen from a VW dealer in Mt. Pleasant, IL. Huge leap of faith for someone as anal as me. I did have a trusted local friend do a visual PPI.
It desperately needs a thorough cleaning / polish / wax since it’s only been washed by lot boys previously.
The only mod’s currently planned are;
- Install a Campy sticker on the rear window
- Refinish the passenger side wheels. They were curbed at one point and the dealer did an embarrassingly bad job covering up the damage. I can literally just peel off the resprayed paint. I may go a bit crazy and have the wheels painted in as close to Porsche 993 Turbo S finish as possible.
Here are a few photo’s. The Subie sold 2 days after I put it on Autotrader,
