Speaking of which... Rodney, I will sell you a 2001 S4. Lots of maintenance done, new clutch, water pump, timing belt, serp belt and tensioners, fresh Bilstein sport shocks and Eibach springs, and a long list of new parts over the past 5-6 years like alternator, power steering pump, etc. :D :D And no, you can't fit into it with a helmet on. :(

Sounds like a nice car, but you know my rules; no helmet, no buy....

Why are you selling? Oh, I know... Jackie is going to buy that and finally going to sell me my ZHP!

Your timing is great! This one was bought for Pam though. I get to drive it on occasion. I still need to do the front seat mod and remove the spacer block from underneath the seat rail.

My son owned this car since 2006, and when he was moving to CA 2.5 years ago, I bought it from him so he wouldn't have to fuss with trying to sell it at the last moment. Since then I've used it for rain/bad weather, etc, and put some money into it, but I'm not using it hardly at all now, so no need to continue owning it really although taxes and insurance on it are very small.

It is comforting some things don't change :). I think everyone with car addictions should just swap them every so often. It would save a lot more $. More $ for tires and races that way :).

Definitely looking to buy and truck and trailer soon. Drop insurance and tag on the S and be done with that reoccurring cost. Just gotta pay for this twin-unit HVAC system first :thumbsdown:
