Heated steering wheel and Thule roof rack
So, after a RT trip to Connecticut in temps as low as 7 degrees F, I've learned the heated steering wheel is a keeper, even at the expense of losing the 3-spoke sport wheel.
OTOH, I just received the Thule Aeroblade Edge roof rack, and after spending a considerable amount of time trying to decipher the installation instructions, I finally mounted them and quickly concluded they are hideous. They transform the sleek avant profile into something utilitarian. If I wanted that look, I would have gone with a Subaru Outback. Back to the store they go. Now I know why the PO had installed a low-profile trailer hitch mount. Time to take a look at a hitch-mount bike rack.

Since I am the only one in my family who bikes I just fold down the seat and put the bike in the back. Roof racks are nosey and if you ever forget the bikes are up there when you pull in the garage…

As alternative take a look at audi manual. They mention some sort of the way to put two bikes in the trunk.
