Just wanted to say hello to everyone. Just got myself into an 04 Jet Black 330Ci, and wanted to meet the local contingent.

This is my second German (had a '00 Audi S4).

How often does everyone meet?

[JonnyChimpO]

hey hey,

[TheDarkSide]

Welcome! We meet religiously at least once a week. Every Saturday for the most part. I try to be at most of them so take a few numbers and keep in touch.

Awesome, glad to have you!

How did you hear about us?

[puloo]

I work in computers, so I guess I found you through Google... :)

Where do you guys usually meet?

[RPM Photography]

Everywhere :)

You will usually read about it on the forums. Sometimes its a few hours notice, other times a month or more. Just have to keep an eye out.

Where in Tampa do you live? I think I have seen your car before.

Welcome.

Right now I live in Clearwater, but moving back to the Westchase area the end of August. (work in Largo)

I'm usually around Westchase a lot (all my friends live up there). And my (now) ex-girlfriend does.

Just today got my windows tinted. If anyone needs tint I know the BEST guy in the area. I've had a lot of tint jobs performed on my multiple cars, and this is the best I've seen. This guy was crazy maticulous. Some chinese guy next to the Woodlands movie theater...

Welcome to FG, black is the sex!

[catchuk]

welcome man, nice ride man. How does it feel to go form the s4 to the 3 series? Are you missing the turbos?

VERY! but not taht abd on price.... you get what you pay for i guess..

To be honest I prefer an Audi over a Beemer. But I couldn't pass up this deal. I got out of the S4 because I had so many problems with it, but it was pretty damn fast (chipped it).

Its just a shame I didn't get a 5-spd. But 04 /w CPO 100k for under $30k was too good to pass up.

[TheDarkSide]

Damn, yeah that is a hard find :eek:

[David A]

Welcome and nice car - also, you'd get a 6-speed if you had gotten manual...;)

I was going to ask, why S4 to 330? That seemed to be a 'downgrade' to me as for me if I wanted a 4 door car, I'd have got the S4 but as you can see I didn't so I got the M3 -- 330 wasn't anything I considered.

Interestisng to hear the reason why you got rid of it. Nice job on the deal, see you 'round :)

[TheDarkSide]

He said he was having a lot of problems with the Audi. Probably had hard feeling towards Audi after that so he did not get another and came across such a good deal on the 330 he could not pass it up :dunno:

[JonnyChimpO]

hey, should we move this to the welcome thread.

[BallsDeepAsian350]

that chinese guy is good....but pricey:cheers:


No surprise there. :headbang:

Well i had racked up 70k miles on the S4, and was dreading the point the turboes would go. Bought the car for $17.5k, ended up selling it for $20k :D

I had looked around for an '04 S4. I found one /w 34k miles that I was going to bite on. I ended up falling on the 330Ci in the paper and realized it was a much better financial decision (less miles /w CPO). I will admit, after having the Beemer, I do prefer Audi's. Just not enough to get rid of it :P Besides, Audi doesn't make a coupe (only vert). If I could afford a used E46 M3, I'd have one, trust me...

[LDadrenaline]

Yeah after like 70-80k miles Audis just kind of....disentegrate... lol

[The Weiner]

i just moved out of westchase

[SlickShift]

Welcome :wave: Another facelift E46 coupe :thumbu: Is yours with the performance package? Either way...let have a go at it. :D

[puloo]

Why did you leave Westchase?

[whoyodaddy79]

Hey welcome... I live in westchase..:germanflag:
