First of all, thanks to all of you for posting the good, the bad, and the ugly here on the S3 forum!!

I did it!! Plopped down some $$ for the '05 S3 in Blue (which I love, despite the general taste for black - aside from cb in hickory :wink: ). She's got 5600 miles and chicken strips on the stock Michelins at least an inch wide. Pazzo's, CRG mirrors, flyscreen, front & rear stands all came on the deal, which was a good one.

Got a few miles in on a Saturday test ride, despite the blistering cold, and found out that it's not all hype - that thing is MEAN. I can't wait to get it on the track...Hell, I can't wait for a warmer day! I'll see you all out there very soon - and I do wave at other riders.

Congrats! Blue is fastest no matter what anyone says. Did they deal with you on it at all?

What is cb in Hickory?

 

[bobw3592]

If that was the one a Myers, it looked to be pristine. Excellent choice, the blue w/ the gold bits is very sharp. Give speedydave a bump, I just saw his w/ new gold bars etc., lookin very nice!

Enjoy her, it's been a little warmer making some loops in the foothills, still some sand on 9, 74a, 80, 126.

Cheers and Congrats!

Yes - he was willing to deal, and I think I did alright...

cb is cheapbasturd, who it turns out may not be from Hickory - apparently I had his location confused w/yours!

Thanks BobW! And for the heads up on those roads. I spend most of my time on backroads where I grew up, north and west of Asheville (Madison/Haywood counties). Nary a law officer, ever :-D . I'd love to get a ride w/some folks as spring makes her way to the mountains!

Whatta road.

 

[Cheapbastard]

congrats kstar! How could you confuse me with Dave? :hammer: :-D I'm prolly about an hour or so away from Dave, we all definitely need to meet up one day. Me, you, Dave, and even ol' Bob! :wink: :-D I got out fer a bit Saturday too, temps was in the mid 30's and plenty of salt on the road still, but I had a blast! :-D

 

[speedydave]

We can all meet up soon. The weather has to break eventually.

I'm just a little south of you in Greenville. I ride up 178 & 215 to the BR Parkway all the time. I have yet to see another S3 in my travels.
