Yeah, they look best in black. hides the ugly-ness. But they do sound good! Just like an S4 with exhaust

I honestly don't think they're ugly. The one I saw looked either silver or white - I was chasing it down in a movie theater parking lot LOL.

Fortunately for this guy, repairs won't be an issue.
1) wont keep it past 18mos
2) has an AM DB9
3) beater is a Lexus LS470(?)
4) owns a yacht and 3 other residences
5) donated millions to a local hospital

Luck SOB. If I had the extra $ I'd have one in my stable in a heartbeat.

don't get me wrong i love audi, but those cars in my mind are far more superior

if it was audi it would be a rs6

the m1 or one of the roundel cars do fall in the german catagory



and kolby you are out of the sticks, but right in the cornfields

Not off the top of my head, Il ask around. What are you looking for?

I know that there is a SV650S for somewhere in the 3k range, but its a v-twin sport bike like a
Ducati..

so, in the event that the CEL comes back on and i need to replace the intake manifold gasket(s), how much would you figure that to be.

is there something super duper i can replace it with so i have a mod on my car?

po 304 misfire
po 301 misfire
po305 misfire

he checked the 02 sensors and said they looked ok
said "fuel trims" looked ok

thought maybe "vacuum leak-intake gaskets"


i asked him to drain the gas tank. did all but a little over 1/4. i filled it at a reliable station with 91 oct.
the CEL is off now. i'll wait to see if it comes back on.

he has quoted me a price of $387 for remove and replace intake manifold gasket.
