The Four-Rings
It seems everyone is ready for something different. At Least Ikea thought so when they recently changed their font, but more importantly, Audi has changed their font to a sans-sarif style. Fonts are not the only topics on designers minds, Audi has also, slightly, changed the four-ring logo. Compared to the more familiar design, the new logo has a defined three-dimensional look, and a shinier finish will attract a little more light.

What do you think?

2010 Audi A5 2.0T

I got a chance to get a little personal with the new Audi A5 2.0T that's set to hit the streets in a few months, and I must say, I've been a fan of the A/S5 since Audi intorduced it. It surprised me to hear that Audi will let Canadians see the the option for a two litre engine, but at the same time, the great success of the A5 3.2 marks a good impression on the car. Compared to the A5 3.2 at $51,000, the 2010 A5 2.0T will be introduced to Canadians at a comfortable $44,100.

What is Audi Care? Audi says:
"When you purchase the Audi Care New Vehicle Plan, you pre-pay for scheduled maintenance service at a very attractive price. Of course, you’ll also receive superb care from Audi service professionals. No one is better equipped to help maintain your Audi. The best time to buy Audi Care is when you lease or purchase your new Audi. At that time, the cost of the plan can be rolled into your monthly payment."

Cleanse yes, Wax later.
By Danny Vogler

So, you've washed your car, dried it, maybe even detailed the tough-to-reach spots, and now it's time to put the wax on. Not so fast! Have you pre-waxed your car? Most people skip this step, but if you're looking for the perfect protectant, you should apply a pre-wax/cleanse to your car before waxing.
Pre-wax cleaners are a combination of light polishing material and cleaning solvents. Most of their cleaning ability is provided by the cleaning solvents, not the polish. The polish is so light that you would have to rub for hours to remove swirl marks. In fact, you could use pre-wax cleaners every month and not measurably reduce paint thickness.
