Default More problems with the order.

Well,. Here I go again. Now I just found out that the interior that I wanted was not the one they ordered. I ordered Ecru/Onyx Ambition, but they ordered Onyx Ambition. Ugh!! Last time I found out that they forgot the ESP. My dealer is trying to find a car with the similar options, but I'm starting to lose confidence in them.
On the other hand they do have a car on the lot with the following: A4 1.8t, 5 spd, Quattro, premium, Bose, Ebony pearl with Opal grey leatherette. Hmmmm!! I'm tempted. Somebody talk me out of it.

Maybe it's a sign that you were in fact supposed to get Quattro...

Most owners here are Quattro - that alone would make us biased.

Default I'm starting to think the same thing...but,

I'm going to see what my dealer can do. I really like the Ecru/Onyx. The opal grey was a little plain for me.

Default Is there a way on the printout to know what color interior was ordered?

I would like to check mine. Probably the time my car gets here, it will be 4.5-5 months. I don't want to wait again.

Default Yes. The dealer has a listing of all cars on order.

It lists everything. Unfortunately the sales personnel are usually not the ones placing the orders in the system so if the order is wrong the salesman doesn't know it unless they verify it themselves. Make sure they verify it, and get a copy of the order sheet with your order. Avants are too rare to have an order messed up.

Default I've been there...

I ordered my car back in early May. When the car came in in July, it didn't have Xenon's (and 2 other options, but these were not completely the dealer's fauly). So I reordered in early August and am awaiting for my produced car to make it over from Germany. Maybe if you had to reorder, you could get them to reduce the price. This is rediculous. Good luck.
