Still though specially in US, some lucky kids are really spoiled and don't care about many things & stuff but to me it appears like she does put herself to work specially in little free time she has with school, rally and other things to learn these things crazy fast, is not easy for her, specially as girl might feel inside herself the pressure to be in her father shoes and when she is doing things is not looking sloppy at all, she fights to be better.. So to keep this short, Lia learn fast and she is talented !

But he didn't want the Cossie, so he immediately got rid of it and bought himself the Quattro.. Such a unique sounding car... They won everything back in their day..

When I went to flash the ECM/ECU of my B5 S4 Avant, I went with Roland Mayer, founder of Motoren Technik Mayer GmbH. But of course, Mr. Mayer is best known for his engineering work on the original ur-Quattro. From wiki, ‘involved in the development of the five-cylinder turbo engine of the quattro sport race car of Group B’. I had that ‘Ich ❤ meinen Audi’ sticker on my car too, smiled when I saw it on the project car.
