Farewell to the Stage3+ ....

**LA_AudiTR** · 08-19-2008 10:59 AM

Well, after a full year of procrastinating and not accepting offers, I officially sold the car last week. AS hard as it was, I had to say good bye. So for all the OGs who helped me out in the beginning and everyone I've met in my journey - thanks for all the advice and help through out the years.

Other than looks and comments about the exterior, I would say I would miss getting those surprised looks from M3s, STis, some EVO owners and all the other 300+ HP cars out there that never expected me to beat them or at least keep up! They never see it coming. All those looks were well worth the APR Stage3+ . You will be missed ...

So here are some parting shots for old times sake.

And now hello to my new BABY: for more pics and the story of why I sold the car, pls go here: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=230381

My thoughts exactly. So beautiful. I see a few S6s around here but none of them are Avants.

Avants FTMFW!

What brakes did you have on your A4? Looks like Alcons if my eyes are still 'good'.

Wow - what an upgrade! That S6 is sick!!

They were BREMBOs with the LOTUS calipers in silver. I loved them BREMBOs.

your car was amazing man i always admired it. how much did you let it go for?

**LA_AudiTR** · 08-19-2008 12:30 PM

thanks bro. id rather not share the sell price since the new owner 1) might be joining AZ, and 2) he probably woul want to keep that purchase price to himself.

I will say tho - he gave me my asking price which was well above the KBB value. It made the decision to let it go a little easier once he accepted my asking price.

Yes I finally got 1) an avant, and 2) the car I always said i would get when it first came out. But i do miss that head jerking action when you floor the Stage3+. I get some of it in the S6, but its defintely more noticeable and immediate in the APR kit.
