Haha, that's crazy. I'm at 2,425 hp with NOS. I wonder if that's wheel or crank.
 

Renegade - that the thing that drives on two wheels?

Anyone playing Pixel Car Racer?
 

Need pics of said woman in order to evaluate the situation.

I think down under the options are grouped together differently compared to EU/UK/USA and some are just not available
 
It has the comfort pack (whatever that does), the technik pack (sat-nav, bigger MMI, etc), and the S-line pack (appearance, wheels, flat-bottom steering wheel), plus the sunroof (meh). I've got the sunroof blind closed most of the time because of summer, although coming back to a dark interior it could be decent for the colder months.
 
The only thing not ticked is the driver assistance pack - of which the only extra item I would have liked is radar cruise control. The ability to soften the suspension a bit might also be nice but I don't think that's available on this model. It can reverse park itself, although I always forget about that and just do it myself.
 
I'd also have preferred the 'normal' leather seats - these have leather backs but are suede for the most part - but at least they still are heated (sure, not required, but once you've had them, there's no going back).
 
Audi Drive Select is installed with only the ability to set engine responsiveness and electric steering wheel weight. I have Individual enabled (Dynamic Engine + Comfort steering)
 
Dynamic puts the gearbox into Sport mode (just holds gears) but you can keep Dynamic and return to Drive mode so that all gears are used but responsiveness remains improved compared to Comfort/Efficiency modes.
Efficiency is quite interesting. It's just like Comfort but if you stop accelerating it disengages the clutch so that you essentially coast at higher speeds for longer (no engine braking).
 
Both steering weights are not ideal for me. If Comfort was 0 on a scale and Dynamic was 100, I'd like to set the steering at around 70 and forget about it (which I guess is roughly where the Mk6 Golf was). Comfort is great for navigating back streets (90 degree turns) which is why I often use it, but not great for the motorway or spirited forest driving. Dynamic just makes the wheel unnecessarily heavy and doesn't do a lot to improve the predictability of steering outputs. Or maybe it's just because I was cornering faster than I thought I was.
 
Cup-holder location is a bit of a pain as well if using bottles as they hit the dash. Door pockets are angled so no good for fast-food drive-thru runs.
 
 
Other imperfections with this particular car:
Strange rustling drivetrain noise under light acceleration from behind the firewall near the pedals.
Steering wheel emits clicking sound only when turning right
DCT is very jerky when downshifting/stopping, especially in sport mode. Never had that with my Golf or any other DCT.
Rushing sound heard left-rear as if a window wasn't closed properly, and strange window fogging there as well.
 
I seem to get treated like an 'Audi driver' a lot more often now though :(

I should probably get around to uploading these shots
 

 

 

 

 
I should also probably tint those windows :hmmm:

Here it is
 

 

 

 
2009 A3 2.0 TDI 140 with 95000km

in case you haven't heard, he can sing for real.

Oh yeah, Startdust, have heard that name before.
 
Out-of-the-box looks are certainly better than the C205, nothing new really, but I like this AMG Line version.
 
 
SEC :D
