The Germans know how to make a good car that's for sure.

I don't have a picture of it but this is what it is, also the same color.

I love it, truly a great car. Super fun to drive.
Do you have the touch navigation/system?


No, unfortunately not. Is on the radar for future project though!

This is the radio I have in mine, not my image, taken off google as I am too lazy to walk outside. xP

Oh okay, this is what my wife has.

Also a picture from google. But it has car play for the iPhone which i think is awesome.
My Jeep has the same thing but not as good as hers.

Yeah, I would love a touch screen radio but not really a priority.
I just got her Xenon Angel Eye headlights for the car, we are getting them installed next week.
On my jeep i have green ones and i love em'
You should look into them, they look very nice and are bright


I love the bulbs I have in mine, I'd like to black out the headlights and tail lights. It'd be sick af.
I'd love to put some red LEDs in my grills and stuff for car shows and stuff like that.

Be careful though, it's illegal in some states.
Before i became a police officer i got stopped because i had blacked out lights on my jeep, i switched them to green last year.

I was living in Dallas at the time so it was a metropolitan area so that was why. If you live in a rural area or less population area, you may be fine.

What plans do you have for the car? There is a lot that can be done to these cars, and they aren't that expensive to mod.


As of right now, windows tinted, louder exhaust because the car is quiet af, newer intake and air filter, some interior stuff with the radio and leds. After that I have no idea.



I would go with a cold air intake, may be a little more spendy but you're going to need one if you plan on doing any tuning.

The 2.0T engine is really under tuned for all markets, for instance my 2010 A3 has a similar 2.0T engine and just doing a simple ECU flash I was able to go from ~200HP to around 240-250HP. Same kind of gains for torque as well.

There's a few different tuning companies out there, I personally went with APR and had nothing but great things to say about them. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] is another one, I believe NextGenUpdate is running one of their tunes on his Audi as well.

I think you made the right choice by going with a older one. This one looks nice. What do you plan on doing aftermarket to it?
