RS5 Driver assist package or no?
Alright, Ive asked a bit about what drivers assist has to practically offer, so I am curious from the community: If you got your RS5 with DA package are you happy you did? Any people out there NOT order it and wish they did? I have a few more days in which I can change my order, so i would love opinions please-

I got it and wouldn't give it up. The dynamic steering alone is worth it. ACC is super convenient on long highway trips and in traffic and the side assist is a nice piece of mind.

Side Assist is part of MMI in the MY2014.
for me I never had ACC so i never cared about it and for the Dynamic Steering I did not likeit when i test drove it (I heard there were issues with SW update that was fixed later)

In January I picked up a 2014 RS5 Coupe with DA pkg. On my car the Side Assist was included in this pkg not in the MMI+ which I also have.
The ACC is a great feature if you do any long distance driving and it also makes you aware if you are getting too close to the car in front of you if you were to get distracted or look away from the front windshield for some reason while driving around town. The Dynamic Steering just gets better and better the more I get use to it. Especially when your traveling at low speeds in a parking lot trying to maneuver the car around with its variable ratio. I wouldn't do without it now. I feel the DA pkg is definitely worth it and would get it again in a heartbeat. As for the asymmetrical look of the ACC sensor on the front end, that's just a matter of taste. As one of the previous posters had already said , it's a conversation starter. Once again, my votes for the DA pkg. You won't be sorry if you get it but might if you didn't.
