You sure love that 1.8T engine

But how come you already own two cars at 21? (sorry if I can sound picky but well, you will agree it's someway strange and you could at least explain w/o to many details )

Nice rides, but you could sell those cars and buy yourself a big nice Benz

Not a problem, well the GTI i bought about 4 years ago used and got a good deal on it so its paid off
and i invested alot of $$ into it so I didn't want to get rid of it.
Plus I have a emotional bond with the car because its my first car
and its my first manual!

the GTi was nice but there are things that the car just lacked which
made me fall in love with Audi in general. So I felt if i could get
anything better than the GTI but with the essence of the GTI it would
be a a4 6spd with something ive always wanted to experience Quattro.
So I went to Audi with my best friend and I got my a4 sedan and he
got his cabriolet. He had a GTI just like me but he look at Audi in
a different perspective and wanted a VW Cabrio but without the
girlyness associated with have a VW Cabrio, and the fact that it
didn't have a 1.8T like his GTI. Plus he wanted to experience
somehting new so he choose the CVT transmission in a convertable.

The Audi is nice but my problem is that im never satisfied with a car.
I still haven't found the perfect car and there are alot of things i
hate about the A4.


Next how I can have two cars: Well first the GTI is paid off and
has dough in it, and its my first car so its hard to sell. Second the
note isn't that bad for me on the Audi considering so far I have been
very fortunate to have done what ive achieved in my life at my age.
Im in the insurance industry and have been fortunate to find a field
in which i can make a lot of money but do something that i love doing. 8)


Next: why not buy a Benz, good question and thats exactly what im
thinking about doing after driving the E500 yesterday and powersiding
it around the Galleria area in houston in the wet! Alot of fun.
But besides the fact that i was totally surprised i could powerside a
benz the fact that the car goes like its on crack and stops on the
dime helps plus the active contouring seats and the benz luxury make
me feel i have finally found the perfect car! So I think im going to go
for the benz but not until I can find someway to get out of the Audi.

The only car I could think of I would feel is more perfect for me then
the Benz would be a 911 GT3 but thats not for a couple of years down
the line

Thanks for explaining. And an excellent choice to choose for a Benz

And as for the Porsche, it will not be as comfy as the Benz.

Sorry about that, I edited the picture and reduced the size so that should help somewhat.

As for the benz vs. porsche. Your definetly right the benz is going to be more comfortable then the porsche but then ive never been a total luxury type of person only when ive had a bad day at work and im tired and just want to relax.

But when I look at porsche I see perfection in my eyes. To me it means perfection in my life, when everything has been said and done that ive wanted in my life im ready for a Porsche. A perfect car for a perfect life
