LegGTLT Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 That is him! Just searched his name and this is creepy... but yes, I recognize his house and his car. I had no idea he SOLD it though! He's very local to me and I saw his car at a couple local shows and we talked. Very nice guy. P.S. Kick yourself once for me too! That car was SICK SICK SICK in person.

LegGTLT Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 I have looked at the 2010+ and I do like. No MT in AWD but it's becoming apparent that in the future, there will be no MT AWD cars.

BlazingAsura Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 You could go German and get a VW Passat with 4Motion. I once saw a Passat Wagon with the 3.6 VR6 Engine and 4motion. It was a beauty. Auto though. >.o "What's God, if not the spark that started life?" ~ Last Ride of the Day by Nightwish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegGTLT Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 I would go with an A4 Avant before a Passat. Smaller I know, not the best in value obviously, but there is something about that 2011-12 Avant in Prestige w/Sport package that does it for me... Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

BlazingAsura Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 They are nice. BMW is bringing over the 328i Wagon with an eight speed auto. Audi is releasing the Audi All-Road.

LegGTLT Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Ehhh, the new Allroad is A4 based and I think it needed the extra room in the A6 platform. I know the A4 and A6 platforms have grown since the original Allroad but I guess we'll see. I saw the press release photos and I'm not sold yet. Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

BlazingAsura Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I did just see a Volvo S60 R with AWD, and it had what I think is a manual...All I know is that there were the numbers from 1-6 etched on the outside of the shifter, but instead of the leather wrap that our cars had, it was a smooth flat metal surface...So AWD manual sports cars are still available. Hell, I may look into one of those. "What's God, if not the spark that started life?" ~ Last Ride of the Day by Nightwish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCHM1AN Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Those are nice cars. A friend of mine just bought one and loves it. And if you're into wagons, the V70R is nice too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tytek Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Go drive the new BMW 328 Sport. You will like it. Chip it and you will love. It handles like a dream, feels faster than it looks on paper, and the interior is very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It handles like a dream, feels faster than it looks on paper, and the interior is very nice. Really? I didn't even know the 328 could be chipped. Wagon option? e39 M5 God yes but no way can I afford that. Challenger R/T (or SRT8 if I'm lucky) or new model Jeep Grand Cherokee... Really not a fan of the 2-door retro craze. Original ones?

tytek Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Really? I didn't even know the 328 could be chipped. Wagon option? Yes, the newest 328i is a 2.0 turbo with 240hp and 260tq stock. A piggyback that is undetectable once removed (will be available soon) will bump HP 295 to and TQ to 330 ft/lb. Stock 0-60mph is around 5.7sec. The handling and steering is great in the Sport version, and the sport seats are just awesome. The F30 is larger than E90, especially in the back (by 2"), but not much heavier. It is not cheap, but if you limit the options, it does not cost an arm and a leg. Go drive it... it is only a fraction slower than an equivalent 335i! No wagon in the US... yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fysics Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I was really looking at the S60R at the same time as the Spec B, a guy I work with has one. 6spd, awd, heated leather and 300hp/295ft-lbs of torque and similar price range but the guy really had nothing nice to say about it. Fit and finish and lots of time spent at the dealer, though the guy is a bit prissy. 4 Corvettes in the last 7yrs, he's currently in a '11 Grand Sport.

Too bad there's no wagon. I think that's the next requirement/high desire that I will have. I really like A4 Avant and I still love the '09 XT MT. Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.
