Was going to post an update on my last thread, but it's been so long that it's archived.

For those who don't know, this is my second vehicle. I used to have a 2001 kia sephia that I purchased when I was 16. It got the job done, but near the end I had the suspension go out in the rear passenger side so it was time for a new car. Ended up finding the 2010 Audi A3, and feel in love with it. I've always been a fan of hatchbacks, and I love Audi vehicles since I was a kid. Ended up going with a FWD option, as any AWD version was sold within a day or two in my area.

Specs
2010 Audi A3 2.0T
FWD
~270 HP
~320 ft/lb tq
106000 miles

Mods
Stage 2 APR Tune
CTS Cold Air Intake
Billieboat 3" Downpipe
RS Style Grill

To be installed
Koni Coilovers
Energy suspension Motor Mount


Plans for the future include a new exhaust system, new set of springs & struts, sway bar, upgraded calipers, slotted rotors, 35% tint, new headlights, and a RS style grille.

Also plan on getting a new set of rims, and tires. Plan on going with the rotor style rims, and a set of summer performance tires on them and use the other rims as my winter set.

Can complain all you want about the auto, but for the amount of driving I do in the cities with stop and go traffic i'm glad I have an automatic. When I want to have some fun I can throw it into manual shift mode, and use the paddle shifters.

Quite an alright car, if it can get you wherever you want to go, then there's nothing wrong with it

Don't know how I will feel about black wheels, maybe gun metal gray.

Plan on doing black HIDs in the future, will look like this

Having an automatic as your daily isn't bad at all. I have a standard and do lots of driving in the city and its annoying sometimes. People always love to hate when its not standard.[/align]
