Certainly faster...in terms of draining your wallet! 

Ouch that is a bad decision for sure. I would have kept the 2008 Honda Civic Si and sold the Audi. The Civic would last longer.

Where's my torch! 

That's a good joke.

What will you sell next?

Lol going to stick for the endless money pit cars.

Depends on what you want.

Well maintinace audi can last you but cost a fortune in parts vs orher cars . Eg Japanese vs Europe vs usa part price.

Example look at the price of an oil filter.

If you are enjoying the wind in your hair and it running well keep it.  If you want as a daily driver and dont have the time to look after it .. I feel it was mistake.

A tip -  keep the hood clean and water proof it.

Park indoor. That hood can age fast and will cost a fortune to replace.
