Default 2015 or 2016

im looking at buying my first Audi. I'm looking at two S7's. One is a 2015 with 15000 miles, cold weather, carbon atlas inlay and driver assistance package. The other is a 2016 with 30,000 miles, cold weather, sport package, upgraded sound. They are pretty much the same price. Which would you go with and why? I like the carbon atlas interior of the '15 but like the wheels better on the '16.

I would go with the 2015. First, you can always replace wheels. Second, however, is that whoever is selling it is telling you they have cold weather package and sport package in the same vehicle. That is very uncommon in the 2016s, so I would be skeptical that it has the heated steering wheel.

Strictly based on aesthetics, I would go 2016. I waited a solid 6-8 months before moving forward with an A7 because I preferred the upcoming facelift to the older model. Now I just put in an order for a 2017 S7 because I happen to like the 16/17 more so aesthetically than I do the renderings for the upcoming model.

If the 2016 is the facelift model, l would be going with that.

+1. I like the look of the FL S7 compared to the PFL models. It seems to have all the nice options. As for the interior trim/inlay, those can be changed out for your trim of choice especially if another A7 or S7 or RS7 owner is willing to swap his for yours.
