Default I don't want any other car now

I used to own a 1998 VW Jetta VR6. Thing was tough, I was beating all kinds of cars without even sweating. Even my friends 97 A4 2.8L.
But new years eve my Jetta's life came to an end. But that gave me the chance to get a car that I've been wanting for a while. An Audi...
I bought one about a week and a half ago for 13k with only 55k miles. And it was an 02 A4 1.8T.

That car is slower then hell when it compares to what I used to be driving. But, It looks WAY nicer, and drives even better. Unfrotunatly the day after I bought it the engine craps out on me. So now I'm in over my head trying to get Audi or the dealership to pay for a new engine.

But no matter how this turns out, Audi is the car for me.

I know no one cares, but ha...this is what I do when I'm bored. Entertain myself.

hi, im sorry to hear that you already have problems with the car. I think you should search for a new engine at the scrapyard first. Going to the stealership its the best way to throw money away.

haha, ya I'm def. not going through the dealership if they are going to charge me for it.

And unfortunatly the scrapyards out here don't have engines that are in any good condition. The only one that I was able to find, was a 2.8L with blown heads.

*shrugs* I'll find out what happens in the next few days.

welcome, it's kinda a sh!ty way to start your ownershi process but it'll get better, and yes the stock 18t is gonna be a good deal slower than a VR6, but have no fear that can be fixed
