$600 a week, yes we can finance you!

I think one of the things folks are missing is that with the exception of Tesla, we are not the auto manufacturers’ customers.

Automakers are deferring all the payments for like 6 months. Don’t worry. Economy is going to come back bigly and all those filers will have new jobs by then. It’s going to be incredible...like a miracle.

We’ve had 26 million people file for unemployment in less than 6 weeks. We can create all the supply we want, but if demand is nonexistent, it won’t matter. Nobody is buying a new car immediately after filing for unemployment.*

nice rake!  quattro or fwd?

Agreed. This is a nice middle ground on the exterior but holy shit that interior is obnoxious:

Also, I love the Fat Fives!

I have one just like that. Mine’s a 2007 manual. First time I saw this car, I feel in love with those smooth, clean designs you mentioned.

This is what attracted me to the 8v as well - it’s clean, handsome, and gets the same design language as Audis that cost tens of thousands more, so everyone thinks you’re rich when in reality the car cost me $18k slightly used.

On this note - I bought a 2015/current gen A3 2.0t from Carmax last summer to replace my deer-killed 2008 Legacy GT (RIP).

love the a3 hatchback! 

Man, I always loved those; then add in the flat/fat fives. Oh boy is that good.

I think those wheels really make it work.  Good looking ride you got there!

those wheels are chonks i like them! 

Bravo! Scathing comment and brief.

2 is the right number of fake vents. Around the fog lights.

I would buy a manual S3 or RS3 tomorrow.

Those damn kids and all their buying power

the modern a3 should be shaped like this with a few upgrades for flare.

I agree. I think Audi styling peaked here.
