Hey guys,
Just moved out to the Phoenix/Tempe area from the NYC/CT area. Some of my best friends from home are on this forum back home and figured I'd see if there is anyone here in my new location. I'm 22 years old and looking to meet some new people. Don't know anyone personally out here yet. I'll probably be hitting up the meets around here.
All the best,
Rob.

Hahaha, well I caddied and saved for 4 years in high school from a nice little NY suburb (caddied for Sean Connery once). I had a B5 S4 and decided I didn't want to deal with repairs anymore at 170k miles. So I tore it down and sold it piece by piece including the frame for a guy to build it into a race car. The most I got offered for my fully built stage 3+ B5 S4 was 6.5k. After selling all the parts I made 19k and still have the block to sell, plus some misc parts. So the combination of the 2 netted me a 2010 S4 all in my name. I'm still in awe I pulled it off myself! Hahaha
Here are some pics (Believe it or not these are all iPhone pics):

^^^Thank you sir.
siiiiick! Always nice to see another addition to the AZ community! I recently moved out of Tempe down to Gilbert for school. My mom bought a B8 S4 6MT, so I get to drive that around every now and then this summer since I'm on internship at a country club in my hometown. Sweet cars for sure, and yours is definitely baaadass! congrats on it, sounds like you deserve it, that stance combined with the color combo is amazing.

I'm actually living in Gilbert right now with my grandfather until I get my own place somewhere around the Old Town scottsdale area probably, or close to it. I like the scene over there ;)

My favorite pasttime in old town is flipping off 23 year old trust-fund babies in ferraris.. Lots of old money there, but consequently also lots of cougars with deep pockets! Good luck haha, it's a great time going out there.

Seems to be a good idea to me to move to permanently warm weather haha. Well, permanently warm to us northerners.
I couldn't believe that Sean Connery actually sounds like that...until that day I always thought it was a movie voiceq or something lol. Great guy. Tips very well too!

Hahahaha, how you been Craig?? Long time no see. I've wanted to move out here for a while, everytime I visited my grandparents I loved it here more and more. And when they took down the speeding cameras on the highway (I know they still have them on some city streets) I was all in! Plus Marissa and I broke up about 6 weeks ago now. Tough one, but I think with the current female situation the Phoenix area seems to have, I think I'll be ok! Ha!
Oh, and read Craig! Read! lol

One thing you will never hear about is the lack of talent in Arizona. Welcome to the valley.

Good to hear Rob. I always said, if I was going to college and not even worried about the academics, ASU would be the first place I would go. Hope all is well, have to think its a very solid upgrade from Blacksburg

Yeah welcome to the valley Rob, we met at the meet on Sunday. You live right down the road from me, Guadeloupe and Val Vista. I think your buddy Craig has some hatting there for ASU, thats alright though, most of ASU is a party/don't want to work school. Should introduce him to the Biochemistry and Genetics program they have though, lol. But, anyways, your S4 looks awesome! Perfect stance in my opinion. Once you get her down here you'll love the roads compared to NY.
