It should be the usual expected delivery time - 90 days.
My order was 1 out of 4 dealer's first allocation, so delivery should happen sometime in mid-late September.

What's your opinion on the best looking colors Audi offers?

Metallic white, monsoon gray metallic, or sepang blue?

I was almost sure that I would be ordering a Moonlight Blue A6, but I saw a Monsoon Grey one at the dealer Saturday - It looked real nice.

Stick with the Monsoon grey, you won't regret it. Mine looks lovely in the sun when it's all polished

Strongly considered the 19" wheels, but living in Michigan with the worse roads I have seen we went with the standard 18's.

Im considering the s3 with sepang blue and the standard 18" bi-color 5 arm parallel wheels. I've yet to see what these standard wheels look like, as the 19" ones look spectacular on the sq5 i saw at the dealer with them...

Do you know what the care you ordered wheels look like?
thanks!

The only reason I ordered the 19" wheels is for the mag suspension. Every review I've seen had it equipped, and it was always viewed as a positive addition. I really don't care what the wheels look like.

After spending lots of time on the net and the forums reading all that I could about Magnetic suspension. I ended up changing my order adding the performance suspension.

I figure it would be a lot easier to change to an 18" wheel/tire if needed.

I have seen photo's from Europe and Australia of the 18" wheel and to me it looked great. I am betting the US version will also look great.

The only difference that I could find in the descriptions is that the other versions say 5 arm parallel spoke " partly polished " or something to that effect.

I think the USA version says "bi-tone".

We are new to Audi but I haven't seen a bad looking wheel on any S model so I bet you will be fine if you go with the 18's.

I'm considering one of these. I'm trading my S4 for it and maybe my GTI. Anyway from what I have seen in pictures so far this is a fantastic looking car. Can't wait for it to arrive.
