My passion for the automobile goes back to my childhood. Growing up in Paris, I was always fond of European designs and engineering. I also was attracted by what America or Asia could offer. What made me a true enthusiast is when I realized the true beauty of it all. No matter how different your preferences can be, we are all driven towards our passion for automobiles. My first small cars that I had was a Formula 1 Renault race car and a 1956 Pontiac star chief, I still own them, and they are still in good condition, then as my collection of miniatures and I grew, so did my automotive encyclopedia. I remember watching Rally races with their 6-speed manual widebody Quattro 80’s and was amazed by how their 2.1 L Turbocharged I5 sounded, unlike any other rally cars. (Another Rally car I was a fan of was of course the Renault Turbo 5) When I saw the sporting achievements of the brand, I knew one day I would own an Audi. As a graduation gift to myself, and all the hard work which I saved up for, I bought my first car, a Monsoon Grey B8.5 supercharged V6 3.0L Audi S4. Audi has brought a lot to the automotive world. In short, it is a brand, which has ONE history, AN impressive sports track record, and ONE cutting-edge technology QUATTRO.

When I first started college, I remember seeing for the first time a B8 S4. I just stared at it and thought to myself "what do I have to do to own one of these?" Then i had the the pleasure of going to lunch with one of my professors who just happened to have a v10 s6. I was instantly in love with the car. So here we are years later and I now own both a b8 s4 and a c6 s6. May not be the smartest life decision to own two "S" cars, but my drives are never boring about two years ago, I was browsing b8 s4s. I had one on my watch list that was dropped in price. However, it was about 10 hours away in the middle of Virginia. I made a call, went down the next day and traded in my Jetta TDi for the S4. As for my Audi S6, I was able to find one local to me that was a one owner car and pretty well taken care of. The previous owner had already installed a Milltek exhaust which makes the v10 absolutely scream. The torque the car provides in combination with the sound is just an amazing experience. As far as modding it, I only plan on getting some wheels for it. So far it has he lightweight crank pulley from JHM, EBs red stuff pads and upgraded plugs and coils from NGK. At some point the car may get lowered but that is a ways off

My MK6 GTI wasn't fast enough. sold it. Got a winter beater older than me and saved up for my lovely S4 that hopefully last me the rest of my life!!
