So, did another 0-60 in tiptronic mode so it didn't short-shift...

Put new CV boots on both front axles a couple weeks ago, that was fun. Then this weekend I got winter tires mounted on the stock wheels. 235/55/17 continental extreme winter contact. Vag-com adjusted the suspension up a few inches too. Winter mode:
Someone was asking at one point if this thing could go over a curb. Well it has 10 or so inches of ground clearance now. The TT is also in winter mode:
