He's warming up to finally refreshing the motor - thing must have 200k on it now though and still running totally strong even w/ full RS2+ turbo/intercooler job and being driven hard including a few track days...
Re: new cars - yeah wife had a loaner A3 last few days (getting her Takata face-rippers replaced) with like 2k miles on it... its real nice.. in some ways... but somewhat personality-less... which is what we keep finding w/ new BMW's and Audis... gonna have to buy her a new car at some point tho'... I can keep driving my old rigs happily forever but she's "normal" and actually would like to have a new car once every 10yrs or so...
