Tire noise is OK at this point. It came with Conti's and I'm not a fan of them in general. Hopefully they won't be too noisy until they are worn enough to justify replacing them. During my past 15 years with 911's I've always had best results with Michelins.

As a newbie Audi driver I appreciate your link to the instructional videos. Thanks. Personally I haven't found it as user friendly as Mercedes.

I'm finding the Navigation system a step backward from my past Mercedes ... And in Canada we don't get Google Earth apparently, so perhaps that's why.

(Haven't figured out how to edit the above post...Sorry)

But I must need a map update on my new car as 3 highways I use in the Toronto area aren't on them...and the roads have been finished for at least 3 years. How do you arrange that?

The dealership can do that. for you.
Let us know the details, part numbers, and cost since you may be the first here to have it done.

Love me an S8 but can't have one at the moment.
Enjoy your new toy and drive it. Don't let it become a garage queen.
