can check this one off the bucket list...

Driving an Audi on the Autobahn!

It's an A3, 5-door (hatchback), turbo diesel. I had reserved a VW Scirocco, but they didn't have any so this was the next best thing. (Actually they tried to rent me a GM Acadia and I was like.... No.) I had looked up Porsche rentals but you needed an AMEX Gold or something to be allowed.

I got up to 180 km/h (about 112 mph). Not the fastest I've ever driven, but still, a German car on the Autobahn, hard to beat that!

Here's the car. Nice little ride but my first time driving a turbocharged car and I don't like the lag

That was in Interlaken. Also, here's an amazing 997 GT3 RS in Berne

Looks like a lot of fun! We only got to drive our Volvo on the Autobahn...everyone should get a chance at it! Enjoy!

Im jealous!
You better goto the nurburgring!

Looks like you are having a blast. Keep the updates coming!

Next time we are together and I have the Z, you will have to drive it to experience the turbo and "lag" I have going. Hopefully it will make you addicted to boost after a test drive.

I do like it better now that I'm used to it. I like "boost" better, "lag" is glass-half-empty thinking

Driving the Alps was even more fun. Of course I wasn't the only one to figure that out... saw a Nissan GTR, Supra, Gen I Viper RT/10, Prowler, and Renault Alpine! All on a nice ~20 minute drive. Not to mention countless bikes, Subarus, Porsches (a couple 356s, and tons of 911s)

I would have pulled over for a couple hours and just watched cars for a couple hours if I had time.

Here's a 360 I spotted in Thun

AWESOME!!!! You won't want to come home....enjoy!

Here's some more pictures. The 2nd to last is the Prowler passing another car.

Where are those taken?

All in Switzerland. The MG and Jaguar were near Lungern and the rest were along the route in the map (from Thun to Interlaken)

Wow>> gorgeous place!!

try driving an RS3 ....whoosh, off you go!

Awesome Webby.
