He drives an Audi A4 2.0T Quattro (like the one below, but in blue-ish gray)
He said, "Sure why not. I'm kinda tipsy right now anyway. But please don't hit anything."
I told him not to worry because in my 5 years of driving (I got my permit on my mom's birthday at 15.5), I've never hit anything or gotten into an accident. hahah.. that's one of the few things I can brag about!
He handed me the keys and we walked to the car. The led and xenon lights immediately turned on as I unlocked it. We got in, and I didn't know how to start it because it was remote (no actual key... oh cars these days...)
He told me to step on the brake and he pushed the start/stop button, and the car came to life. I adjust the seat and everything, and couldn't help but feel really excited at the prospect of driving my first Audi ever. Guess I'm still a kid at heart heheh.
Pulling out of the parking lot, I was real careful not to go over the speed bumps too quickly. We got on the freeway, and I kinda mashed the gas pedal. Shit, that turbo really does kick in, and I couldn't tell it was only a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder.
We got there, ordered the food, and ate as if it were our last meal. YUMM.
I thought my driving would have regressed, since I haven't driven in over a month, but it was all good. It kinda felt like a REALLY updated version of my 13 year old VW.
The Audi had a nice road feel to it, and the handling is pretty damn good, especially with the quattro 4wd - I went through a yellow light left turn at around 35 haha. Roomie screamed, "OH GOD NEED THE OH SHIT HANDLES" as he gripped the handle things.
Good times. I hope he lets me drive more often .

freaking awesome!!
i felt that way when i drove my friend's bmw for the first time.. vroom! now i just drive minivans to tkd tournaments and have to deal with my team yelling and shit in the back. boring!
Lol. Sounds like you had an awesome experience. I remember the first time I drove a powerful vehicle. It's unlike anything else you drive. You get thrown back into your seat everytime you accelerate. Cornering is a new experience as well. It's too much fun. :)
That definitely sounds fun. When I rent cars for work, and if there's a chance to get a fun one, I try to take it. I've gotten to drive the Audi A6, but it wasn't the sports model.
It's a challenge for some cars cause they're sooooo small inside, and I guess I'm just too tall.
I LOVE AUDIS! Occasionally riding around in fancy cars is easily in the top ten list of the best parts of my job.
