As a through and through Nissan fanboy growing up all my life, I got to work at a Nissan dealership back in 2014... that really destroyed the brand for me because I saw that their cars are absolute garbage and not even 30% close to the Nissan I knew growing up.

I hope it’s that cheap! Lol! I’ll be either looking at spending that money on an M2 or the RS3 in a few more years!

Drive a TTS and come back to me, seriously! It really isn’t too bad, but you can understeer if you approach a corner wrong. The beauty is you can also pivot if so. The S5 is a pig until you put thick anti-roll bars, which helps, but it still understeers. The Euro sportback is also harder to move that heavier rear and

Your points you’ve made and also your name! Enthusiasts are 90% of the time mediocre salesman. I enjoy sales and also happen to enjoy cars a lot more, but I can attest I would have not been a good salesman at all had I not been trained well as I wasn’t molded by car sales, but by phone sales after I did car sales. A

We’ll see what happens. I’m sure you’re right, but I’d like to have some hope here.

LOL!

Preaching to a choir here. I only drive manual RWD cars. 240sx right now is all i’ll ever need!

Anytime! Good luck to you and your journey from the mundane Toyotas!

There is no way you ever ‘barrel down I-35' anywhere on 35 in ATX. HAHAHAHA!

It’s going to have a performance oriented Haldex. Shoot, the new R8 uses a ‘backwards’ Haldex. It’s unfortunately not mechanical anymore :(

Lease options can go up to 20k miles a year, but that inflates the payments by A LOT. Stick with pre-owned and you’ll be just fine!

LOL! That does not help, big guy! Hahahah!

Step into a luxury dealership sometime... Lot of true gear heads all over those! I know all of us at the Audi dealership here in Austin are super passionate about cars. When I worked at Nissan down the road, everyone always asked me questions about the cars there because I was ‘the car guy’. I never asked for any half

HOLY SHIT YOU NAILED IT! Now, if only consumers knew this...

This x100000000. One person in the car business could only hope! Shoot, I don’t even work off of commission anymore, just volume bonus. You’d be surprised to here salesman that still work off of full commission now a days. It’s all about moving volume. I’d love to still keep my job, but work directly for the

You’d shit your pants if you saw how many uneducated buyers came into the dealership. I know the salesman and ‘stealership’ is a dying breed, but we try to make a living somehow too unlike how it used to be (at least thats what I hear from people in the car business for more then 10 years). The average income here at

I think I know what I’m talking about? ...I sell Audis on a daily basis (at least attempt to LOL). New, you’ll rarely find them under 50k because the dealerships order them with extra packages on them (premium plus, black optic, you know, the stuff you want). Incentives and rebates definitely help get below 50k. The

The beauty of this coming out is the sport setup for the suspension and Haldex setup. I know it’s technically FWD, but in sport mode, it dials that ass-end in. I can get an S3 currently to slide out a bit, and I can tail flick a TTS even more so! It scares the hell out of you at first because you’d think it’d have

It’s not that bad, but you’re right, it is tight. Im 5'11 and I fit really perfect back there (I think 5'11 is the perfect height for driving little cars, hence why I always say to my friends who happen to all be taller then me that I love my height). I would not dare stay back there for over an hour though or else
