Nice that color is gorgeous. The engines in those things are sweet! Just like the Golf R.

Still so damn expensive though and kind of tiny.

A guy around the corner from me traded in his A5 for a Golf R. Nice little thing...

The S3 does look super nice, but I agree, it's expensive. What's the price difference between that and stepping up to an s4? Seems like it'd be the wiser choice overall.

After about $5K in repairs in about a year or so, predatorbird gave up on his tuned golf and went ford st instead.

Both are cars I love since I love hatches.

Even the engines in the A5s can be tuned pretty damn well... Lol

S4s are surprisingly small too...

And the Golfs have issues...

The more I forum A5/S5s the less scared I am to jump into that world. The 2013+ are solid as hell.

Those S3s remind me of the 3G TL a lot... Anyone else?

Haven't heard back from him. It's a best friend of my old best friend. We're friends but not too close.

I like KBP, kinda. It's nice.

Chad, I know the type and the convo...sounds like the deal struck with my buddy that was a sure thing turned into a "sure thing" when it came time to find the cash and get past the wife. Also brutal getting a used auto loan on a 12 year old car when you're asking more than it's worth in their opinion.

I'm not worried about selling it. It'll go fast enough around here. Also not really sweating a $1000-+ sway in price...

And yea that's pretty much KBP but I was talking more about the body lines / headlights from the second pics angle.

Neither was I...and with all the interest I got via conversation/posts, I was surprised at how much effort I had to put forth for someone serious to ACTUALLY buy it. I'm sure you'll end up having better luck.

I was just wishing you luck, not being sarcastic.
Yes, it sold quickly when I got serious about pictures and actually listing it on CL/AT/AZ.

I gotta fix my cd player first though. And maybe wrap the interior parts. The latter for me more than the buyer. I'd hate sending her off ugly like that.

Like you I'll probably detail her one last time so she's off to new hands in the best shape possible.

It's good replacements can be bought for a decent price from wreckers.

Fuck...

Homie texted me and told me if I had my RE license I would have been able to get a double deal.

Selling his house for 555k buying new one for 625k. Would have made like 25k possibly more on that shit!

I need to stop bullshittin' around.


*Edit. I would have made $41,000

Yeah but you'd have blown it on dat lean, written mediocre rap bars, OD'd and people would make really shitty assumptions when yo kids would tell them they don't know they're Daddy when they're older.



Some see missed opportunity...
I see a dodged bullet, really.

My wife is all, just focus on your photography.

I have put that on the back burner too.

No such thing as "blowing money" on lean. That's a sound investment.

Especially if you're blowing guys so that you can blow money on lean. Then it's just a means of supporting a hobby. Ain't nuttin wrong wit dat.

I love your photography, Kev!

You should start a business and take the website name "idophotography.cum"
