car is up for VW of the YEAR on jwelty.com

[flaatr@yahoo.com (Euroroc II)]

Kevin get your priorities straight here!

How many of us buy cars to drive them? I know I don't! It's all about 
looking good and impressing the girls... So what if you have more 
electronics than launch control at NASA in your car! With all that extra 
weight you won't need lowering springs right? Wow 2 times the benefit! a 
lowered car an a full surround sound dolby digital system with a Cineramic 
dash mounted display! I may never want to leave my garage!

And so what  if you put on 20" wheels with 245 tires with stock springs and 
shocks... people see the tires and wheels and are impressed by that. You 
think the casual passer by will see the spring/shocks/swaybars? I don't 
think so.

More on this (moron... funny) if you have the choice between a new cam and 
exhaust or carbon fiber engine accessories or glow in the dark windshield 
washer squirters which do you think is more impressive? Yeah I thought so.

So give the A4 guys a break and remember it's better to look flashy then go 
fast (or at all).

Just got out of meeting and had to rant somewhere   ;-)
