Hi guys, its been a while since I last visited the forum and good to see a few familiar people still on here.
So the misano breadvan went last June after finally perfecting it to how i wanted it and its been 9 months running around in the evoque (Yes i know). To say ive missed the V8 is an understatement. Well finally after nearly purchasing the C6, I finally turned to the dark side and went for the C63 saloon 2012 Face lift ver. I must say, I was sold on the exhaust note alone. So only two weeks into ownership, I have to admit so far i am very impressed. Seems to have as you would expect for a modern car much more equipment. Torque is the most noticeable difference compared the the 4, and also the MCT auto tranny and paddles are a joy to live with. (my first auto ever). It pops and crackles on downshifts which is very addictive. Ive not had much wet weather condition experience yet but have to say in the dry it copes superbly.
Time will tell whether this was the right change for me, as i just loved the RS4. I just wanted to go for something younger and a change. I definitely miss the buckets and the confidence from the quattro.
I thought i'd post a couple of pics (Rule 1 Kinda), for you to love or hate.

Ashy, The exhaust sounds mean, you certainly have played with that. I'm glad you're pleased with the results.
J130YCE, thanks. The a500 is the 595 ver and already running 160hp. Would be int in both an engine and gearbox remap. I was looking at TMC. Out of question, Is the angel remap and tuning box or custom remap?
