Oh no, It was such a nice car. Sorry to hear, I have no idea how you played friendly over the phone.. I would have freaked out!

Re: My Stage 3+ Audi B5 S4

None.

I've been keeping the Audizine thread pretty up to date.

Just...frustration mostly.

Re: My Stage 3+ Audi B5 S4

A complete outrage so far.

Definitely doesn't make moving all the way out here any easier.
There is no telling (beyond the obvious) what could potentially be wrong with the car, and it is too far away for me to be able to assess it.

She has arrived! A few months late and a little battered.



All the fun stuff seems to be going on under the skin.

Looks like:

- Rear trailing arms are twisted - maybe more, as the driver's side rear is WAY high..
- Smashed wheel
- Obvious driver's side quarter
- All down the passenger side is marked/scratched/dented
- Steering is SHOT. Lots of fluid, but no power steering
- Exhaust looks to be pulled at the downpipe flex joints
- Front bumper was slightly pushed up, but looks OK, thankfully
- Starts and drives. No codes, but the battery was dead for the longest time
- The prick was drinking something when it happened, pop stains around the center console


Overall, I think it is fixable though?

Nothing stolen/missing. Still sounds boss.

Hope you can get her all fixed up.

Hope you can get her all fixed up.

Even if it was still pristine you wouldn't see it again...Gerard moved down to NC :(

Wow - that sucks, man!

What were the repercussions for the driver who took it out for a joyride?
