Meet The Rohrlla


Draco-REX

Recommended Posts

Car is looking great! It was nice to get to meet you. Hope you enjoyed getting to take delivery on the showroom floor the other night. We didn't need that dumb R8 on the floor anyways. Also if you need to change a few things with VAG-COM I have it also. Make sure to join Audizine too.

 

Is Audizine the better US forum? Seems there are a lot of half-used Audi forums out there.

 

I wasn't sure if the Showroom Delivery was normal or not. It was really cool. :fuckyeah:

 

I need to make a list of VAG-COM changes I want to make.

I like Audizine the best. The other big one is AudiWorld, but I don't like the format of the site

 

The showroom treatment isn't normal, but I'm doing my best to make sure to do something special for everyone when I can. Just makes work a little more fun and less like work.

 

I would say no winking, VIM, hidden menu, and windows via remote should all make the list.

It was very cool. Flattering that my car sat where the R8 was. :D

 

I just signed up on AZ and I'm poking around it now. I'll check out those options and see what I come up with.

BTW both sets of my SSR GT3s came from VWVortex, but you have to act fast and check out the buyer before doing anything.

 

Just made my introduction post. I'll post as soon as they approve me.

Go attack some round-a-bouts in Hilliard with it already.

Got to play in a couple today. It's surprisingly nimble and composed for a 3800lb car. Once I get more comfortable with it and it's out of break-in I'll start flogging it more.

 

The DSG isn't as bad as I initially feared. In regular Drive mode, especially with the comfort throttle, it's just like every slush-box I've cursed to hell. But with the Dynamic throttle and set to Sport or Manual mode, it responds like a manual which goes a LONG way to making this car liveable for me. Manual gearshifting is fun and I'm getting better at driving around town with the paddles. I do need to get some extensions though.

 

Exhaust is looking more and more certain. I really like the AWE exhaust design, but it's hella-pricey if I don't want any drone. And considering the nature of the DSG, the AWE is likely the only exhaust I'll be happy with.

 

CCW wheels are out. I don't like the profiles they use. I'm eyeballing BC Racing wheels at the moment..

On my B8 I always drove it in dynamic/manual. Really was quite fun.

Dont be too easy on the break in. :)

Sport mode FTW! That is how I always drive them! Really does what you want when you want I feel. Not like other cars where it just revs the car higher.

 

I know it would be hard to find, but what about some Volks? TE37s? Hmm would like nice if you can find the right fitment.

 

 

Check this place out. They make some good looking wheels I think.

OK, I know I said I wasn't going to do it, but I think I'll bring it out to the AutoX fun event on the 19th. Should be interesting throwing a 3800lb car around.

 

As a side note, these are the current wheels at the top of my list:

in matte gunmetal.

I like those, but this might help if you didn't see this yet.

I'll be shooting for matte and adding 15 or 20mm spacers too.
