See, now had I known a month or two earlier, I would have bought your car without parting it out.

Brings to mind an earlier question you had about value of a modded car v. stock. The consensus was the stock would hold more value because the perception is that a modder beats on his car more. Couldn't you also say that a modder is more concerned with how his car performs and thus is more likely to maintain?

I've owned 4 personally... never a major problem and the few minor ones were an easy cheap fix >$500. 2 of the 4 I took up to 100,000 miles.

mmm yeah. It could go either way though. I think the best way would be to leave simple mods, ones that wouldn't make the car loud, give it a harsh ride, or be over the top looks-wise.

yeah it all depends, if its something thats going to void warranty on a car that still has an existing warranty will be a big neg. But if its a car w/o simple mods would be good enough.

Has anyone driven a Q7? My dad is going to look at one tonight, anything I should expect?
