It can be done!!

As if swapping an entire motor isn't extra already LOL. Thanks for watching.

🏁🏆👊

Everyone got there and back safe 👍👊🏆🏁

They don't have an RS4 wagon here in the US...

Ha! We figured that out the hard way when I went in... :)

LOLOLOLOLOL

Custom Upholstered Recaro Sportster CS

Thanks - Music Copyright pulled it I believe...

To each his own, but an easy $40K swing in price difference between this and and an RS6. Not to mention size, etc. Always fun to cheer from the sidelines, but different when you're in the game.

ha, I'm sure yours is nice ! But yeah, this one is a bit nutty.

Advan RGT.

@@albertroxas thank you! I own an a4 b8.5 Quattro and I’m going to start running a manual boost controller with a gauge and see how far I can push this. Hopefully build the engine one day. This v8 swap is the dream tho!!! One day I want to. Thanks so much again!

Purchase of a wrecked RS5 + Labor = $$$$

@@albertroxas any number or range?

@@ersbit - let's call it $20-$30K for the RS5 donor + labor for install.

RS5 tranny yes.

I cannot argue this; however, in this case - with the modifications added, this truly is one of the most expensive all-roads LOL!

You gotta do it at least once!!

We gotta return for Phil's comeback!!

@@albertroxas Definitely!

haha, such a different driving experience for sure - I can see why people love this.

Waiting for the comeback of "The Steak".

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! (Kevin Garnett)

Thanks PR1SM!

Honestly I have no idea. I would assume they wouldn’t affect payload that much, they’re only 29lbs for the pair…

The car was down for approx 5 mos.

Separate key unfortunately

I'm glad she took the time to watch it LOL.

I have a 2014 allroad. It's approaching your mileage. I've had zero issues (with the exception of a torn CV boot). I'd love to do an engine swap but can't justify replacing an engine that runs fine. Yours might be a good candidate for a motor swap.. What state are you in?

@@20vtechnik It's in NH at my dads but I live in NC. It's a rust free southern car. I shipped it up there a couple weeks ago. I've seen people put an S4 motor in them as well as RS4 and diesel. It's in great shape otherwise. Gray with brown leather interior. It has the sport package, which is 19" wheels, sport seats, and paddle shifters. Premium audio and also has real walnut inserts. Make me an offer if interested.

@@solitudessilentgroove Ugh..You're too far away. I love the brown interior too. Best of luck with either repairing or selling it.

I like to see cars I'm considering in person - so a local purchase (along with a potential trade in) was paramount for me, but I'm with you with purchasing out of state for the sheer savings alone.

@@albertroxas So my argument is that if you buy CPO from a Porsche dealer, you are in essence guaranteed a very high quality used car. Before I bought my first 911 from a dealer in NJ, I called Porsche and they said the CPO program is basically like a new car warranty. Not to mention the checklist they go through. So far I've bought 3 Porsches. 2 911's both of which were CPO from dealers on the east coast. Couldn't be happier with the purchases and process. Saved between 10-15% each time.

For my daily use (and occasional use to transport basic stuff - Bikes, etc) I don't find them utitlizing that much extra space, the kids like to sit on them when they hang out in the bed - the space you "gain" isn't much, I use one side to hold all the tie downs, bungie cords etc - the other side is the insulated side which I've used once when we went to the snow. Like I said though, I don't particularly "haul" a lot so I haven't founded I needed that space in the bed. That being said, the package I chose came with them so it was just a given for my setup. Hope that helps! Hit me up if you have any other Q's...
