Let's face it, Gabe is going to trump whatever anyone posts here.

there's one running around NoVA...has VAG manufacturer tags on it. I've paced it down the Greenway, jealous with envy.

he lives near me. Just the first time I thought to take a pic.

Another rare spotting. First of call, a K-car. Second, a turbo (they died violent deaths LONG ago). Third, a wagon.

Shockingly enough, my brother owned a K-car, non-turbo (IIRC) though.

the turbo models were quick, especially with an MBC. engines were cheap and easy to swap.

there was a kid who I knew years back who used to cycle through them. He learned how to do everything himself and with those skills, ended up the lead tech at Funktion Auto over in Dulles. He left there but a classic story of DIY skills leading to real work.

I've seen it a few times.....but still don't get what it means. It's a young hipster driving it.

Saw an Alfa GT on the Dulles Toll Rd. I know that's what it was because the license plate told me so. Didn't get to snap a pic but a quick GIS yields this...

Saw a S4 Avant in Crystal City yesterday and today. Nice blue... with a pretty girl driving it :shock:

Also, this was in my garage :)

No zoom on the GoPro. Plus it would have to be on standby continually.
Not sure what the answer is other than to invite all of you over to see for yourself sometime. :mrgreen:
