Not the same wheel - mine are VS5 RS - but here is a nice pic I took of mine. I think all of their wheels look great and they are light and seem very sturdy....can't recommend them highly enough...
My old shop had a side business modding Suburbans (and possibly Escalades but I can't recall) - adding armour plating as well as additional lights (red and blue etc and otherwise) and com gear etc. As the Crown Prince of Dubai co-owned the building I think he and other Middle Eastern Monarchs...
Not on track....just runs from a dig. I never timed the car but think it was likely mid 11s give or take. Nothing got off the line like that beast....it would pull you down to the pavement and just go....only ever got wheelspin on gravel or snow/ice...
1gturbo - congrats - car looks great and I agree with you 100% wrt bronze wheels. Love that CTS-V wagon as well.
Always loved and respected those EVOs...but just an aside....back in the day I ran vs several (modded) ones with my Audi S4....and never lost (all were very close 1/2 car length at...
I have to say I just loved the driving dynamics of my mid-engined supercharged MR2. Certainly not as fast as a C8 (but it was a quick car for the time). Being so small and mid-engined made it almost telepathic in lane changes with unsurpassed ability to weave through traffic. The supercharger...
Got to admit - I really hated the look of the MK 5 when it came out....I wasn't even sold on the (looks of the) MK VI when I bought ours in 2010. They've both grown on me quite a bit.
I still consider myself an Audi guy though I've only had one Audi and both loved it (very much) and hated it (very much at times....due to its non-reliability issues). There has always been much to like and admire about Audis starting way back...though reliability has been an issue and not just...
I'm a big believer in seat belts (and have come around on air bags after first - a long time ago - being a skeptic). I wear belts 100% in all cars now. But it wasn't always that way. Up until maybe 5-10 years ago I wouldn't wear my belts in our old classic Mustang. My wife constantly berated me...
I hope its not an issue but I do have some trans clunkiness when its cold out. Though today I let the car heat up a bit before driving it and there was no hint of the problem...though the 2nd gear shift was still just a bit stiff.
maxm50 I think you got it completely 100% right. Its pretty much how I feel about the 4 V BW after 1 year & 10K miles of ownership. It checks all the boxes....comfort and quality and great handling and performance.
Like you it seems - I prefer smaller nimble cars....and before I bought the BW...
Both my boys are good drivers (with excellent driving habits WRT turn signals and all the rest)....though had my doubts during the learning phase. What amazes me is their general adherence to speed limits and such...particularly as they've spent much time in a car with me (and were always...
I've left mine on but not without serious consideration to disable. I have concerns but maybe it will save a life or damage and liability one day who knows. I'm a pretty attentive driver and don't think the feature will ever engage (for a good reason). Hopefully it will never be an issue.
Best of luck! But I'm not selling mine.
I like your cars BTW - my kind of car enthusiast. I also still own a 2004 BMW ZHP (MT of course) and absolutely love driving that car. Its a very interesting contrast to the CT 4 V BW. Both are similar in size but quite different in feel and character. In...
Thats great! Good for her (and you). You've taught her right.
Both my boys currently drive MT vehicles and even their prior cars were all MT. They fully understand and appreciate the joy of driving manual. And both have taught friends of theirs how to drive MT (as their folks either didn't know...
Kudos to all the makes still offering MT. I really like to see the Subaru/Toyota guys (and gals?) taking MT in the BRZ/86....meant to be. And I'm glad VW still offers them in the GTI/Type R....unlike Audi (which is now dead to me)....lol
I'm too a big fan of that car...but FWD I'm generally not a big fan of. I've probably watched all of Zygrene's track and upgrade videos with his Integra S and enjoy the hell out of his driving with that thing. I also watch most of his vids though think he should give the 4 V BW another run - he...
I'm very impressed with the Tremec in the 4 BW - perfect for that car IMO. But I've pretty much liked all the manuals I've ever had in my cars - to varying degrees - all not perfect. These have been exclusively from German or Japanese makes (and nothing recent other then the BW). Of course I...
I'm not poor but I'm certainly not rich either (like some of you here obviously...lol). But I've long been a car enthusiast and driver who enjoys performance and I've always bought and owned cars that to me fit the bill without breaking the bank as it were. I think most would say I've owned some...
