Winter driveway situation:

Since he's talking about used, I would bet there are 5x as many used RS7s on the market as RS6s, and they depreciate much quicker. If we're talking new, then RS6 all day every day.

There's only one way to get this sorted out. Swing through Philly on your way home and let me drive your car for a few days to "evaluate" things.

I agree that a 4BW with snow tires would make a great DD pair to a 5BW, just ask @Tall Steve about that. But if you want something AWD, fast, and with a larger back seat, a Tesla Model 3 performance would fit the bill and be cheaper, quicker, and more reliable than any of the options posted...

Automatic only...so, worthless. ;)

Oof. I really do not like the new 5BW face. Hard to make a judgement on the new larger screen until they show it up close, but anyone else notice the PRNDM display illuminate in the screen on the manual Blackwing? 🤣 Of all the things in that video, the new green, Typhoon, is :love:

After 1.5 years and 17,000 miles with the sky cool grey seats, I can say that they do get dye transfer and can show dirt. However, both dirt and dye can be 100% wiped off with some interior quick detailer and a microfiber towel. They are very easy seats to maintain, mine still look brand...

If you mean the fastest color to be mistaken for a white car that's dirty, then you're correct. ;)

Congrats on the manual! Surely @dribs15 can't be far behind?? Reserve your judgement on power until the car is fully broken in!

Two weeks into my Blackwing owenership I scraped the hell out of the front corner pieces when pulling into a friend's driveway. Went on an angle, which didn't help because the lowest part is in the corner.. This is a driveway that I had pulled into several times with no incident in my S2000...

I very nearly got the vanity plate BLUWING...my car is Wave metallic.

Heh. Your license plate says blowing.

Respecting opinions? Thoughful and civil debate? Sorry, that doesn't fly here in Cadillac Boomer-ville! Next you'll be telling me I can't conceal carry in my kids elementary school!

Guys! I am so lucky....I've been married to a supermodel for the last 3 years! Wait, wait...it gets better: she's still a virgin!!!

Why are EVs always a political argument? It's not even an argument, it's just science. Not all vehicles or all propulsion systems are good in all circumstances. Any vehicle can be optimised for efficiency. Why is that so difficult to understand?

Did you know some people also alter their driving style to save gas? But you only "can't make it up" if it's an EV. :rolleyes:

I did 18x9 in front and 9.5 rear. The rears have a bit more offset than stock, while the fronts have slightly less...I might add a 5mm spacer in front for next year. My first choice was the Konig Ampliform, but they were backordered for a while...these came out looking pretty good though.

These cars are perfectly fine in the snow, just not on the stock tires.

FINALLY got my winter wheels on. I ran Conti DWS 06+ on the stock wheels last winter and they were great, this winter I got them their own set of wheels: Konig Hexaform from Discount Tire Direct.

Congrats man!!! The new car looks awesome. Good luck dodging the weather...hopefully you can thread the needle between the storms tomorrow and Friday!
