My New B7!!

[JDillon15]

Alright, so as some of you might have seen, I was rear ended sitting waiting for a train on 2/17. After much debate with the insurance company, they finally agreed to total my previous vehicle and send me a check. That check finally arrived last Monday (3/30). On Wednesday, I flew from Muncie, IN to Fargo, ND to look at another members car. Ended up buying the car that day and driving it 13 hours home. This time, I got everything I wanted in it (manual, black interior, RS4 wheels).

Did I mention that the steering wheel is beautiful? Already has APR stage 2, I hope to get into JHM this summer, maybe. I bought Xexons for it today. It also needs 034 RSB and I think I'm going to swap the interior trim for aluminum. It currently has vinyl wrapped trim (dark wood underneath). Also looking for an S-line filler plate!

Looks great!!! Definitely get that JHM tune for some added power [evilsmile]

[Lastsummer]

Car looks great my friend!! Makes me want to get a cupra now. Congrats though on the complete pickup of everything that you wanted.

[brandonpham]

Congrats man! Looks great, except I've just never been a fan of normal silver lol.

Is that an RS4 shift knob? And seeing the Nav I hope it is color DIS as well.

I thought RS4 wheels looked more aggressive on our cars, that doesn't look bad at all. Hard for me to find a reasonable set of wheels price wise when my stock Ti wheels look soooooo good.

It is an RS4 knob, and e-brake. The Nav was retrofitted. I am thinking I will get the color dis in the future.

Yeah those Ti wheels are sharp.. You might be able to get a decent price on them though ;) I see them go for right about 1k.

Wow! Great pickup![up]

But then if I sell my car its not a complete Titanium! Lol I've always been picky about having all my OEM parts with my cars.

RS4 wheels are 19s with an offset in upper 20s right? Like 29? I forget.

Honestly not sure off the top of my head. They are 19s, though

You wouldn't know what size center caps I would need for those, would you?

[Aim high]

I'm really wishing I held out for a manual transmission... Damnit haha

That was me for a year... Do a tranny swap if you have the skill! ;)

[DeadPin]

I'm pretty envious! I'm wishing my A4 was a manual. I'm seriously debating on doing the swap as its first major upgrade lol. I find it really hard to invest in performance upgrades on an auto ;/.

Lets not total this one shall we?! Lol

[DannyDeez]

Very nice man! Congrats on the car!

[Samsonite]

^That I do not know. Are you wondering for your wheels? Are you sure those are OEM RS4's and not VMR's? Either way these caps work on both..

how does that steering wheel feel? cushioned well?

Not sure what you mean by cushion... I do like the way it feels. The groves make it a little... different. Feels good, though.

[Tenedorr]

Great looking car, good for you!

[rnp614]

I meant how spongey is the wheel at the 10 to 2 range? Much thicker than a stock wheel?

[JDillon15]

Maybe 50% thicker... Going off memory here. Not uncomfortable.

You can see from the groves, the wheel, it is still comfortable at 10 and 2, but is more natural at 9 and 3, as if you were on a track.

leather quality ok? i'm looking at getting that wheel off ebay
