sooo i got a new 'DD'

and freakin love it.....!


99 C5 Magnetic Red Metallic A4 74k miles. only mods are a hidden sub enclosure, Z06 grilles, tints, and one of those clear bras. i bought it un seen off ebay and the guy delivered it last night and i was shocked it was actually in really good shape, much better then i expected. it does need a tensioner pulley and a belt which i ordered from napa this morning. hopefully itll get plates this week

Nice....sight unseen would be scary though, unless you got a screaming deal.

Can't believe it's not black or white though.

while i do love the TA with a passion, and in my eyes it is the top of the Fbody scale, i always wanted a red corvette, and after only driving it around the block a few times u can see and feel the quality differance and it is night and day!
