Okay there is a rant coming because my brain decided to play wise tonight instead of telling a fool what's what. There's going to be a lot of sarcasm in here..

I go to my buddies house to hangout since I'm a lowlife jobless scumbag college kid. Just as I park these nice audi headlights appear behind me, parking on the other side of a car so I cannot see. Paid no mind, walked into my buddies to have another nicely dressed gentleman follow behind me. Turns out to be my friend's roomate's brother. Everythings fine until I crack a guiness (honey milk from the teet of an angel) and a friend asks how the racecar corolla is doing (room of five people). They've been mocking me relentlessly since the accident. The suit pipes up on telling me I should have gotten an audi instead. To which I replied "its a rental since my cars in the shop" "well then my friend come to this audi dealer and ill get you into a new A4 for cheap." Guess who is a fucking vulture?

I told him I'm plenty happy with the car I own, and that the A4 doesn't have the power I have now. I was then lectured verbatim the scripture of Audi headquarters.. good god. Then asks me with the most snoody upper class I'm grobbling at his feet tone "what kind of car do YOU drive?" To which a simple reply was given "Pontiac G8 GT" he then asks more about it like I don't know shit about it, so I go into a long detailed origin of the car, and everything about it. "Oh... well I sold a client an 2013 S4 today and that is a fast car, I'd take that over your G8." To which another simple reply sent off was "stock for stock my car has more hp/tq and you weigh less by at most 100lbs. You have awd though, but I'm not stock."

So we banter back n forth that his friend is going to bring out his 2013 S4 and crush me when I get the car back. To which I said "when the car comes back it'll have milled heads, ported intake / tb, cam and dyno tuned." Which still means nothing. Then he continues on about how chysler makes horrible products, as does gm now. "And fords no better the 5.0 is junk" I mentioned that on a forum I am apart of a member has a 5.0 with a paxton blower puttin down almost 800whp. Doesn't mean shit. Tells me mercedes are junk and that audi, Volkswagen, and bmw put the most time and quality work into their vehicles.

I about lost it once we went from cars to bikes. This asshole 25 year old kid whose an audi saleman doesn't ride motorcycles AT ALL starts talkin bikes to me. "Yamaha.. garbage." Um... okay. Tells me the other big two are garbage. Tells me how useless Harleys are I chuckled at that. Victory bikes are Harley wannabees. And Ducati is the most overpriced, UNDERDEVELOPED, overrated bikes on the planet. "The ferrari of the bike world, huge price, shitty car" :eek::eek::eek::eek:

"So kid what do you have?" "Ducati 848 evo.. and for the record look up what a majority of the world superbike champions were riding on, I don't think that's an overpriced, underdeveloped bike if multiple people are winning with it.. same goes for Yamaha, the R1 is a nasty bike. And maybe there's a reason why this shitty rider by the name of Valentino Rossi rode them forever."

So to end my rant he then started prodding me about my income because i have the bike, tried to explain my job to him but he's just too up his own ass like the prius drivers and george clooney award speech south park episode. I'm so suprised i didn't just rip him up. Maybe playing sage is the way to go? But before I left i told him to have his friend come out and we'll put some money down on a mexico run. So hopefully next month we'll see a nice kill video. :D

I feel better now. :cool:

Sit that ass down and show him the episode of Top Gear with the comparison between the Audi and the Vauxhall..... Then tell him to get ready for the arrival of the Chevy SS. After that, ask him what he plans to do for a living....... Everyone that I know that owned/leased Audis could not wait to dump them.

Hasn't Audi had a number of "firsts" though?
If my memory serves me, didn't they pioneer the "runaway acceleration" problem?
Someone correct me I'm wrong...

I love people like that, it takes a lot of self control but I suddenly pretend to know nothing about my car and nothing about anything they are talking about. It sure takes the wind out of their sails. I like to tell them I don't know much about my G8 it's the wifes car...

What a douche. Lets see, a 2008 S4 went for 56k and 2008 G8 went for 30k. Fast forward 5 years and the S4 used value is low to mid 20's and the G8 resells for about the same price. Hmmm 30k depreciation or 8-10K depreciation. Tell that bitch to do the math.

Yes, but much like the Toyota "Unintended Acceleration" problem, it wasn't a problem with the cars. The real cause? User error. Truth About Cars has the story (http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2010/03/the-best-of-ttac-the-audi-5000-intended-unintended-acceleration-debacle/).

Audis are great cars, and I'd be tempted had I the money. But they're more difficult to modify, more complicated, etc. The G8 is simple and reliable.

Love the video. Ill keep it for later. I was serious about the race so maybe he'll come back. Cause I'd really enjoy showing him taillights and listening to a cammed V8 at WOT. :D

When you argue with an idiot, he takes you to his level...

When accosted by arrogent idiots, I just smile and nod. Soon they will make the mistake of asking to race...at that point, to keep it friendly, I request the stakes be a liter of distilled spirits. It's always agreed upon, as it's not money...I have a few bottles of Makers Mark in the cabinet.

And just like that you have swayed me to race for spirits.. brilliant.

Audi consistently is towards the lower half for product quality (some outliers). Earlier A4's had horrid reputations for oil consumption and electrical issues. Good luck getting an Audi to 200K miles - it just doesn't happen. I ADORE Audi. Absolutely love their products. They look so damn good, they are technology leaders, they have solid performance and their basically high priced steaming piles of crap in the long term life department.

Want to go broke in a hurry? But a 4 year old Audi, BMW, or Mercedes with say 60K miles on the odometer.

As far as the S4 eating a G8 GT alive - that would be me like saying how a 993 would eat the S4 alive. An S4 can north of $70K in a hurry - a new G8 GT was $29995 at introduction - and one in good shape can be had for $20Kish. It isn't even in the same league.

If I won the lottery their would be an R8 in my driveway with the V10 so fast it would make your head spin. But with lottery bucks I won't care about repairing the damn thing.

The 25 year old kid is just that, a kid. GM, Ford and Chrysler build crap. I'll glad buy him a 2005 Honda Accord with a V6 and the 5-speed automatic with say 90K on the odometer. I sure hope he has $4k to $6K laying around to replace the transmission when it explodes like a hand grenade.
