SQ5

in matsperzak's garage

Picked up a 2014 Brilliant Black SQ5 P+ before moving back to Denver and wanted something bigger than my b8 A4. Thought I was going Allroad, but ended up going with the SQ primarily b/c of the 3.0T. I was struggling with going to an automatic 2.0T coming from a stg 2+ 6MT and I welcomed the extra room. Found a great deal on a local SQ that had everything I was looking for. Modding started immediately, I swapped a number of parts from the b8 her first night at home. My buddies and I call it the "The Bird", stems from referring to Helicopters as birds (ski culture lingo ). With the Nokian snow tire setup, it literally does fly up to the mtns in any conditions. Tough to find a more suitable/fun car for a mtn weekend trip Next summer wheels: Vorsteiner VFF 109 21x10 wrapped in Mich PS4S 295/35/21
