It's been sticking around 30* all day here. The roads are already bad and it's supposed to keep it up until at least 9:00 or 10:00pm.

Nice. Its about 35 now, all rain, but the ground is still cold, and there is some ice. A 12 car pile up on 70, 1 dead, 2 semis involved! Looks like its gonna be doin this for a while here too. looks like you are barely on the snow part, springfield is about the cut off where it changes to rain.

guess that depends on what you paid for your car?


i know you started the bidding upwards of 15, maybe closer to 17.......... now you are down to 11............

that is a 4-6 grand hit, what it would take for the work to be done........ gpop ko4's are only 750 a side + gaskets so 1600.......and will mount right back up to your car........ they flow almost as good as ko4's with ko3 flanges so no manifolds needed....... just frp, upgraded ic's, injectors, and tunning

but i don't know all the stages, i would guess you could run with your tunning and junk and k03 and that would be an upgraded stage


that is far less than buying a new car

lol that is where your still wrong again lad! I bought my car for 14k there is something that exists called time and over time things lose value hence the current price of my car. Also to take my car to where I want it, would cost far more then you think, so as I said above a little thing called time exists and time decreases value of goods and buying a certain someones S4 who has already put 20K+ into it to bring it to where I want it for less then half the price of the upgrades applied that that Joe paid for, factored in to the total price = a great deal for me .

Edit: See the reasoning behind it all is that if my turbos do go out it will cost me quite a bit to replace them and if I did wait for my turbos to go out then I would have three choices which would be sell my car for less then half of what it is worth or pay for the replacements, or sell my car and buy a decent sedan. So why not just spend the money that I would have to pay in the future now on a stage 3.

P.S. Im sick of silver everyone has it, its ugleh.

you are looking at buying the auto?


oh no


and i agree on the silver



and s4's really don't depreciate......... it is called supply and demand........ you are in a part of the country that demand isn't all that high..... put that fugger on ebay.....reserve it at 15.... start is at 13 watch it go to 17-20
