Klown, was that saying my posts were BS but he was unable to avoid them? Or that my posts were not BS? Just clarifying.
Very Happy

Yeah, but can you ride your bike with no handlebars?

Sticky rides one with no seat....

Been driving manuals (Mustang and Ranger) for the last 13 years and getting tired of it. Plus all electric vehicles are automatic. My next will be electric: looking at a Volt or a Leaf, but want to see what Ford is coming out with. I'm not a purist - I'm a realist - and reality is electric cars will take over; it's only a matter of time.

Those are all good cars Epic. Good luck on your search.

by **S7 K1ll3rKlown** on Sat Mar 10, 2012 12:58 pm

man, hate to hear that Coolhand. But if memory serves they stopped the sale of Volt (or they had a problem...will check which). That said, I understand if you're ready to move to electric. I doubt they will "take over" totally anytime soon..though I agree we should do beter as it will lower gas prices/oil consumption, etc. Hope you find one that's a GOOD car, not just get an electric one just because it's electric. Wait awhile and find one worth the hassle.

Good luck in your search. Oh yeah, stay with Ford if possible.

I think I've pretty much decided on the A1....the 'Black Edition'.

Pretty long lead times though, so might not be 'mine' for a while.

by **S7 Interseptor** on Sat Mar 10, 2012 7:49 pm

Very nice Epic. I am a bid Audi fan and of the cars you listed, that was my favorite.

by **DeadSockPuppet** on Sat Mar 10, 2012 10:00 pm

@Epic - sweet looking car

@Klown & Coolhand - Tesla roadster?

by **S7 Epic** on Sun Mar 11, 2012 8:08 am

Yeah, should tide me over nicely 'til I can afford an RS4...

by **S7 OC** on Sun Mar 11, 2012 8:47 am

Very nice Epic. Audi makes some really nice looking cars. I am not a big fan of the hatch back but I do have to say there is exceptions to that and that audi is one. I also feel if your going to get an Audi Black is the color to go with dead sexy.

by **S7 Epic** on Sun Mar 11, 2012 10:01 am

Yah, can't wait. Got some sick options on it too. Including the full multimedia package and a 480W BOSE sound system =)

Good choice Julian.

Looks sick in black too

by **Atrum** on Sun Mar 11, 2012 3:32 pm

Wish the a1 was available in the US. I'm going to be buying a new car soon and would definitely be interested.

by **S7 Epic** on Sun Mar 11, 2012 5:57 pm

Guess they think it's too small for the US market...? Maybe just get a black bora? Then you can pretend it's whatever the f#ck you want...

Lol.
Yeah, IDK. If it wasn't way expensive I'd get one shipped over and be the only one with it here.

by **S7 Epic** on Sun Mar 11, 2012 6:41 pm

Yeah, no idea what the import costs are. Not even sure what to suggest as an alternative - at least in this category of car. I guess there's the Clio but they're a bit basic on the inside, then there's the Golf but those are a bit over-priced IMO.

by **S7 K1ll3rKlown** on Mon Mar 12, 2012 9:39 am

Sweet choice Epic!

Puppet, the electric Tesla roadster is $109,000...I'd say not very practical.

Yes but it is pretty bad ass... for an electric car.

by **S7 Epic** on Mon Mar 12, 2012 10:15 am

Just get an economical petrol engined car. Electric is still not going to be seriously viable for a while. I hear Ford are going to be bringing out a 1L that gets ~109bhp.

Engines like that are 'the future' for now. Electric is still in it's early day...you don't want to be buying cars that are still in their infancy.

Take a look at VW's blue-motion cars.

by **S7 K1ll3rKlown** on Mon Mar 12, 2012 10:33 am

I'm NOT buying an electric car until that puppy can produce serious horsepower.
The Roadster gets 240hp/200 ft. lbs. torque-- Rolling Eyes

If I'm speeding 100 grand get a Lambo or something!

by **S7 R0LLING THUND3R** on Mon Mar 12, 2012 9:56 pm

Epic, I like the Cupra more...The look is more sporty and where I live the other brand is common, it just looks ehh to me. Go for it!
