  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Alternatives to G70?

Came out from dinner and had the competition parked next to me so decided to take a few pictures. Happy with my choice.

You got dinner at Urgent Care? :roflmao:

G70 definitely looks better than the 330i

The rear of the BMW looks like any Lexus now. Theres nothing at first glance(or a long look) that I would instantly recognize it as a BMW(if the roundel wasnt there).

So true, and now that they removed the very distinctive "Hoffmeister Kink" on the rear window, the side looks like a previous gen Honda Accord or a Subaru Legacy. And I am not even mentioning their hideous nostrils...
 
I've been following the 2nd gen TLX Type S as I have a current gen A-SPEC currently. The TLX Type S will be a single turbo 3 liter that will be released mid to late 2020 as a 2021 model year. Exact HP hasn't been released but estimates are closer to 350. SHAWD is an amazing AWD system that rotates the car very nicely when accelerating through corners. If this thing didn't vibrate on the highway between 70-80 MPH id buy it off lease and wouldn't even be considering a G70 as my next lease.
 
Well, I have to say everyone on this forum has been really great. And I think the G70 is a brilliant car for the money. I however ended up going with a new S4 because I couldnt pass up the deal I was being offered, and the timeliness of it. Im still going to hang out here because I like to see how people modify the G70 and hopefully Ill pull along side one someday at a red light and have some fun.

P+? Prestige? Color and options?

S4 was my 2nd choice...and literally was one day away from getting it. G70 came in next day!!

P+, Quantum Grey/Black, Black Optics, S-Sport package and some other stuff. The other nice thing is that I was able to transfer my strut tower brace and rear sway bar from my A4 to the S4. Also, my JB4 for it should be arriving today.....(evil laugh). Already made some cosmetic changes. Not sure if I'll keep them.

The colors add a needed impact to your S4. I looked at A4 prior to G70 (Volvo S60 also) and the Audi color palette was unimaginative. Yours is maybe the best of the choices.

Thanks. Ive always had white or blue cars in the past and I really liked the Mallorca Blue G70 so I was all over that. Didnt like the current blue on the S4 so I felt I could do the most with the Grey.

Man I really like that Audi grey, looks nice. Congrats! Is that a 2020 model?
 
Looked at a black G70 sport today.... I initially wasn't considering a black car (never had one) but I think Black with those wheels looks great in Sport trim. Also looked at white Prestige and which I think works better with the 10spoke wheels.
 
Nice ride for sure. Not digging the red on the rings and tires (sorry).

It's totally cool. Its just tape and dip. Im not sure Im feeling it either, just tired of the all blacked out look. Not sure what I want to do here.

2019. They are practically giving these away right now with significant lease cash. I am not a fan of the new 2020 design so I jumped at the offer I was presented.

Maybe try white?

I was actually thinking more highlighter yellow or green so it pops. Just dont want it to look too much like a clown car. Ill probably end up blacking it all out in the end.

I like the red -- but seems I am in a minority here. Love idea of highlighter yellow.

I like the red too, because it matches the brakes and S4 logo. The shade looks to be a little off tho, could be the pic, but if the red rings were a little darker maybe?

Also, blacking it out is never a bad idea ;)

RE: TESLA .........NEW STUDY on EV's starting to reveal the truth. After this was revealed...... a bunch of sites were claiming it was B.S.. hmmmmm..


According to the study directed by Christoph Buchal of the University of Cologne, published by the Ifo-Institute in Munich last week, electric vehicles have "significantly higher CO2 emissions than diesel cars." That is due to the significant amount of energy used in the mining and processing of lithium, cobalt, and manganese, which are critical raw materials for the production of electric car batteries.
