If you haven’t already noticed, I’m a big fan of the OEM+ look – something that looks like it could have come direct from the factory, but it didn’t. I’ve showcased Audis on Lamborghini wheels before, but equally as stunning can be OEM Porsche wheels on our cars. I’ve collected a sample of photos of [...]

UPDATE – 1 year, 6 months later: While I’m still disappointed the Audi Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) warranty is not transferable, I will say that I no longer regret buying it. In fact, as I shop for used Audis, I’m hesitant to buy anything BUT an Audi with a CPO warranty. It’s saved me about $3,000 in costs [...]

Most people that have ever stepped on a car dealer’s lot to buy a new or used car know that the posted sticker price is rarely the price you’ll end up paying. Haggling, bartering and negotiating are just part of the deal. You may even be able to negotiate the price you’ll pay for car [...]

So I recently got (another) photo radar ticket. Ironically, I knew there were cameras at the intersection, so I sped through to make sure I made the light – it turns out the cameras were both red light cameras & speed cameras, so while I made the green light before it turned red, I got [...]

Audi Valve Caps – It’s All in the Details…

My new wheels needed some new valve stem caps – somewhere along the way I had lost my old set, and my tire installer used some really ugly gold valve stems that stuck out like a sore thumb against my gloss black wheels. The dealer charges a good $30 for Audi valve caps, so I [...]

I was in Napa, California, for a wedding a few weeks ago and needed to rent a car to get me around, as well as get me and my girlfriend to and from the airport – I was able to negotiate a Chevy Camaro for a very small upgrade fee and couldn’t pass on that [...]

Some of these crash pics may be tough to look at, but I think they serve as good reminders to drive safe, check your mirrors & blind spots, NEVER drive drunk, never street race, never text & drive, and practice safety on the track and on the street a like. While a car accident is [...]
