well after following this car since 2003, on my 21st birthday my parents suprised me with a 06 Black A4 GTO sitting in front of the house. i couldn't believe they got me the car i wanted since i got out of highschool, with 9 grand down to get something decent for payments and chrome rims. i am the happiest guy in the world right now

It is certainly a day that you will not soon forget. How cool is that? Is a "Happy Birthday" warranted? ;)

Congratulations!

Bring on the questions. I am sure that if someone here does not know the answer that together we can figure it out. A GTO for a birthday present!? Wow! I remember getting my '72 GTO when I turned 16 (keep in mind that I got the car used...I am not that old...yet ;)). Your story certainly brings back memories.

BTW: How many miles did you put on YOUR goat today? :D

important question, does having a cold air intake and exhaust void the warranty for the car?

Congrats, know the feeling. I wanted a GTO for so long and kept putting it off. Then one morning, I literally woke up and decided "I want a GTO". After some "intense" negotiations with the wife, I had mine by 3pm that day. All it took was one test drive, can the wife was in love:)
