      yeah! (about the German part!)

        I was a valet for a few years and parked everything from the ugliest beater you can imagine all the way through the Ferrari Modena shown here



        So I admit about the Porshe chassis I could be wrong, but I've heard from numerous sources that all Subarus have their chassis based on current/previous Porsche chassis. As far as the LS goes it's a sports sedan and from my previous work experience one of my favorite cars to park. It felt 95% similar to a Bentley for how much less??

        The Mercades with their stupid electronic keys that cost like a grand to have replaced. They also have about as much acceleration as a Honda Insight. I mean how long do you have to slam the accelerator before the car makes a reaction? Audi, VWs, Mecades (same parent company if I am not mistaken ... I COULD BE!!) parts and tune-ups cost a small fortune. Expensive cars STAY expensive is what I am getting at and I for one don't care that much about it to make my transportation one of the largest yearly costs like some ppl. Thus why I drive a 93 Civic lmao
        I don't get what your point is with all that. Yea, they are more expensive. That's why I don't drive one. But ideally, that is what I would want. I also love old Saabs. Not practical. So-frickin'-what?

        I think Audi is partly owned by VW. Mercedes is a Daimler-Chrysler make. Daimler-Chrysler and VW have nothing to do with eachother. I hate VW.

          VW and Audi are both part of VAG - Volkswagon-Audi group. Mercedes is owned/in partnership/whatever with Chrysler - and its showing for both makes - for Chysler - better stlyling and some additional features etc...for Mercedes...well...seems as if they are falling apart now...

            And yes - Audis are quite expensive to own - believe me. I've had numerous repair issues and I've also put money into various performance upgrades. I'm currently contemplating about a $10-12K investment to turn it into a super beast (its currently just a beast)...wondering what it will take to break the 12 and perhaps 11 sec 1/4 times...currently I'm somewhere in the high 12s perhaps low 13s - depending on the temperature and atmospheric conditions (cold and dense air is decidedly best). I love thrashing corvettes, porsches, BMWs, EVOs and STis in my wagon - lol - ahd while I currently do - for the most part - I want to be assured of beaing able to thrash all competition under any circumstances...and mainly its just fun to hear those turbos spool up and launch off really fast like

              I'd say go for it, depending on the reliability of the upgrades. $10-12k seems about average (for most already fast cars) to break into the 11s. However, I wouldn't call it an investment (or a really bad one) as you might get 2-3k added to your car's value after the upgrades. It's all in good fun though, right?

                yeah thats what I meant...(actually with the upgraded turbos and euro & perormance parts reliability is supposed to improve...)
