First timer from Philly

Hi Everyone,

I'm a happy new owner of a 2015 Sedan SE. I traded my 2013 S4 for her aftermy commute jumped from about 7,000 miles/year to 18,000, so it wasn't economical to keep the Audi. For those who have been on Audizine, I am "afig367" over there.

This is the first non-AWD car so I've ever owned, so I'm thinking I'll pick up some winter shoes at some point. Other than that, I'm very happy to have the car, and am looking forward to learning from everyone here on the forums.

Below are the some the pics from Trade Day.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

City of brotherly love! Welcome! That was a nice Audi but I think you will be happy with the Civic for economical and reliability reasons.

Some winter tires would be good and probably all that you need to get through the north east winters.

Re: First timer from Philly

Thank you, all!

People ask whether I miss the Audi, and the honest answer is... sometimes. But you don't use the majority of the available during any drive. You worry too much about getting pulled over, blowing the transmission, etc.

I'm very happy with my 15" wheels and bulky tires!
