Didn't realise you could get DRC suspension in the US. Excellent!

Personally, I would have trouble justifying almost $10K for an exhaust system......

It does seem to be marked up around 30% or more on buying an Akropovic system direct from an Akropovic dealer. The Audi system is a dealer fitment rather than a factory fitment anyway. I guess many would be leasing a car such as this, and having it packaged up probably helps the process.

For me, the main benefit would be that this titanium system is, apparently, significantly lighter. The OEM Sport exhaust (which has been included in the price and build of the car, and then pulled off) already sounds pretty good.

At least for the US, when the car is ordered with it, the car arrives to the dealer with it already installed. I believe it's done at the factory because it is not listed as port installed.

I ordered the Akropovic exhaust as well, and I am 99% certain it is factory installed. I am pretty sure I specifically asked that question when I ordered it, but it's been a while now and the memory isn't what it used to be.


I enjoyed seeing those prices in USD - makes me feel a little better about what I paid up here in Canada ($10,500 CDN for the exhaust for instance)


That is a beautiful car in matte grey - cannot wait for mine to arrive!
