The seriously weak dollar means you guys are the luckiest SOB's at the minute as you get to own awesome cars for not a lot of money. An Audi like that would cost the equivilant of like $65,000 over here in the UK.

Still sweet car.. Audi's are great machines. Pure german refinement! :)

Why is the car Half Black/Half White and what are those Blue things? :s

And what's that hole between the front left headlight and the left wheel?

Er answer to #1 - protective covering as that thing just got freshly imported! It'll just peel off!

#2 - probably a brake cooling duct or something?

Packing material. :)

And that would be a fog/driving light with the white cover for scratches. Or are you talking about the golf cart reflection?

Congrats on the car, and on picking it up before the damn dealer could brand it with their logos.

When I purchased my VW like that, the dealer said they would need to pick it up to get all the registration worked out, so I said "fine." Little did I know, they just wanted to take it to their shop so the could drill two small holes in the trunk lid to hold the dealer logo and two Quarter sized holes in the front bumber to hold the license plate holder ..... I did not spend that much money so they could brand my car!

The Judge ruled in my favor and the dealer has decided against drilling holes for license plate holders unless requested by the customer. :D

Is it a V6 or V8? Either way, both those engines haul!

Congrats again, A6's are sooo fine!

    • Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
    • How do you connect 5.1 Speakers to this thing?
    • I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
    • I'd basically agree. The only point I would add is to be careful not to treat science as a religion, complete with priests, dogma, and blasphemy. Humans are highly susceptible to religious-oriented ways of thinking since it aids in forming communities of like-minded people. The problem is that when this happens, nobody wants to be ostracized from the group by saying that a deeply-held idea is wrong. Science and "peer review" are not immune to this behavior, unfortunately. In the end, finding truth is our own responsibility and we can't depend on others to hand it to us. Skepticism is key, along with curiosity and the willingness to critically evaluate and consider ideas both new and old.
