If something a little less plastic-claddy and more sporty were offered, I'd bite. But AoA numbers on allroad sales aren't encouraging to see them bring other models right now.
Since there is no Avant offered A4 or S4 we all sadly have to settle for the Allroad stateside. It's crummy.

On the bright side, I enjoy modding my vehicles just like Jaron so special ordering an Allroad and adding my touch to help move it closer to a S4 Avant is something I'm actually looking forward to doing.

On on that note, I'm placing my Audi exclusive order tomorrow for a one of a kind Nimbus Grey B9 Allroad. She will eventually look something like the below (sort of). To say I'm pumped is an understatement.

Whoa. Great minds think alike. I'm waiting for an allocation to open for a Nimbus Grey SQ5. The new Mexico plant will shortly start taking Exclusive orders.

Hells ya. GREAT color choice Jaron!!! Will look great on the SQ5 as well.

Interesting news about the New Mexico plant. How much wait time is that expected to trim on the Audi Exclusive 6 months?

Happy to see that you are taking the plunge. That is an awesome color. What interior finishes are you going with?

I still like a black/dark grey interior. So I'm going black interior with the natural grey oak inlays and trim for a nice uniform look.

That is the interior that I have and I am quite happy with it. My only complaint is that the black leather shows a lot of specs of dirt or lint, that don't vacuum up very easily.
