Vivek's stable is up 250HP!!!!

Just a quick announcement.
Today I bought a used 2000 Audi A6 2.7T Quattro. 250HP and twin turbochargers..... (thank you god).
I was in the market for a used car for the winter and I got this one at a real good price. I'm in love with it already and looks like my regular car (Lexus ES300) is now going to be relegated to 'Beater' Status
Its Red with a Black leather interior and all the options (xcpt GPS)inside (and Xenon headlamps). + tiptronic transmission.
Spent the afternoon on the freeway, overtaking lesser cars .. Man, its heaven when the turbos kick in and pin you to the seat.

Pics and a better review will follow soon. For now, I'm going back on the road...

For now.. here's a review of the car-

Congrats on your new car! Great choice there. I can see that you have owned 2 American and 2 Japanese cars and this is your first European car. Do give us your comparo's between these cars, specially between the Audi and the Lexus.

nice choice man, but be careful the 2.7t engine is big runaway sign but i hope you have good experiene with the car.
it very unreliable as it lifted straight of from the older s4.

Forced Induction is another replacement for displacement. More useable too.
