Man, talk about Haulin' Azz

What a gorgeous interior, that's a real luxury ride!!!!! You can get out of the IKEA parking lot quick in that!

Good thing you remembered to hang on to those 11-99 CHP license frames.

I hope you'll stick around here, too, it's always good to hear from ya!

That's nice man. Way nice. That's the kinda car I'd like to have, in a bit, when the kid figures out how to keep the car clean.

Those are cool. I see quite a few modded wagons around Minneapolis. Saw one yesterday as a matter of fact, it was bright blue, lowered and loud.

Also, that thing has Kuan written all over it. AWD for the nasty winter, plenty of room for Jr. and the gear. Man, Kuan. Head for Carousel this afternoon. See ya there!!

Pimpin' ride. Looks tight!
BTW, You might want to check the alignment on those rear wheels... thry don't look like they're sitting right... too low maybe? Does it have coilovers?

I don't know if it's the camera angle, but it looks like the arse is dragging. You can see it in pic #10.

That's a bad @$$ looking wagon, Godfather! As it sits it wouldn't last too long on CT's tank trap laden roads, though.

The gap between the top of the rims and top of the wheel openings appear to be the same for all four wheels. I don't think that it's dragging, but I wouldn't mind ensuring that a few items underneath have skid plates. I'd also create a fund for periodic replacement of those resonators.

I thought the gap looked smaller in the rear. Time to change the contact lenses.

Those Audi's hook up pretty good and will make a few AMG owners a little nervous.
