^^^Since 3yrs ago when I bought my car you were looking to buy yours. It seems like as every year goes by you not getting around to do it and your budget is increasing.

Ohgadoi!
You correct mostly about the increased budget. Luckily, I got two vehicles in between that weren't what I wanted but too convenient to pass up. Allowed the budget to fatten :grin:

Habit, does the Fiat bravo come in manual?

Question for tuners in general: What cars can be had with a manual transmission here?

just want to say thanks to this board.

Just purchased a new Audi A4. Came here and the price comparison for the new cars saved me a lot of time. plus the tons of reviews on different models of cars.

the base price of the car was $355k 1.8. But then I added a ton of features which brought the final price to 395k. (bang and olsen sound, electric front seats, comfort key, parking assist front and rear, electric back blinds, manual side blinds, headlight feature (cant recall the name), folded seats). I thought about the Q3 but I did not like the space in the rear compared to the a4. On my list as well was BMW and also Mercedes Benz but somehow the A4 really pulled me.

I have not decided if I will keep the service at the dealer or not. will try for the first year and see how it goes.

Congrats man. No matter how much i think about the BMW 3 series and the Mercedes c class. There is something about audi that makes a statement they don't. That's just my opinion. Hope the service is up to par because that's all remaining to sway me.

Not locally, they only offer the dualogic transmission which is like a single clutch version of the VW's DSG. But it is pretty much like a manual transmission without a clutch.

same thing i was wondering...yes any car can be jacked but some tend to be jacked a whole lot more than some others...and you assuming that they will take your car and tell you bye bye...some will kill you with one shot to your chest then take the car.

It does not matter what car you have if bandit want it they will come for it dude, so saying if someone buys a certain car they will get killed is BS. I understand your point but I dont really care about that, the most I can do it protect myself and insure myself and the car. dont see why ppl acting like a SGV is an almera lol

I didn't say if you buy a certain car you will get killed. What's said is that some vehicles, models and makes tend to be more targeted. What I was saying is that people simply assume that they can buy a highly targeted vehicle a day put car search on it and alarm and the world will be forever alright. Some times, sometimes the bandit doesn't steal it when you are off the scene. Sometimes it happens when you are on site and the come for the car. They don't come asking nicely they come with arrogance, nervousness and you never know what nervous trigger fingers could do.

We have seen lots of examples. Don't let me sway you lol I know I can't do that, I was just making an observation.

Lol.

160hp and 240Nm in torque. Check the torque on the de. Hp alone is only piece of the picture.

Is not only the HP and torque figures ... The jetta have Boost from 1500 rpm all the way up thanks to the Twincharger, so no turbo lag at all.

a stock sr20de now is how old? almost 2 decades? You really expect to challenge a modern direct injected twin charged motor? It still surprises me when people feel because they have sr20 in dey primera it means they could gee dem. You better off against a CK4 4G92 Lancer GLXi or an nze corolla.

Jetta's locally are 158hp and not 160hp...not like its a big difference anyway.

lol @ gee dem. and the nze corolla 2010 and up models might smoke you too, depending on the driver....hint hint...but aces point is well made...no comparison between old and new tech...1.4 engines doing as much as old 1.8 l engines in terms of torque and hp these days...no turbo lag and torque for so to gee dem..and dont start me on dem euro autobahn machines...primera was the owner of its time...but sadly its time has past...requiem to the sr20....moment of silence...

no sir my almost namesake sir i am not, the tuners on here can attest to that, my vehicle is a humble vvti corolla (2010) which as anyone will know is not the fastest...however having said that, it is faster than some engines of its age and older engines of bigger size etc... is it faster just because its new? no. its faster because of whats in it :lol:
