This is what FUNCTIONAL stance does for you



The jackstand is on the engine cradle, the suspension is at full droop in the front.

Yeah, especially if you like paying $100 for a ******* windshield wiper like this ****** at my school who drives an A4, who thinks his car is the best thing with 4 wheels, even though it's an overrated pile of ****.

Sounds like a killer deal to me.

FYI, the point I'm getting at here, is Audi is nothing special, either.

I see where you are coming from, but the only problem with the situation you presented, is having the AC go out at 8,000 miles is warrantied, no questions asked.

everything you just said does not make sense

100$ for a windshild wiper apparently and then he proceeds to call audi's a POS lol

true...

being a previous audi owner ( see sig), i can agree that the audis above will over rule cobalt/scion/vw... but.... pricetag is alot different on the cars above than any cobalt/scion/ sometimes vw... price plays a HUGE factor in these comparisons, and therefore i dont think they can be compared to a certain extent

What was it lowered on? Our tC is on Road Magnet lowering springs. They claim 1.5" but it seems like it dropped more.
