I think this is a fantastic idea. Very original and unique. For the longest time I've wanted more color options for my car. With this, you can create your ideal custom car. Just have to be careful with resale. And hopefully Audi won't charge too much for the service.

Default Its $2500 for the paint and $2100 for the interior trim.

Interior trim is fixed as to what colors you can get on what, and usually its just inserts and stitching. Paint is any color Audi has in its lineup. I just ordered my MKII TT in an Audi Exclusive color.

Default Article said, "30,000 combinations..." Sounded a bit more than

what they have always offered. I could be wrong.

Default Im sorry, but those air vents are ugly!

I really don't like the interior. It looks like a old school Grand Am or a Cavalier or even worse, a saturn. Lets just say, I'm glad I've got a B7.

You do realize that is the TT interior, not a future A4, right?

Default Nah, I didn't assumed it was a continuation from the last and just viewed the pic...

Still, not happy with it for the TT lovers.

Default Sounds like the Porsche Exclusive program they have been doing for years

Pretty much any combination of colors, materials, etc your pocket book can support. Their best market for this is in the middle east where the sheiks pay huge amounts of money to completely customize their cars. These guys go on hunting trips and have porsche use the skins on their seats.

Your options are only as limited as your bank account. Any exterior color you want, custom colors on the interior, engine enhancement packages, etc. Porsche has the customization thing down.

The local Porsche dealer had a 997 Cab that a customer ordered not too long ago with some of the Exclusive touches - leather covered everything (air vents, PCM (radio) buttons, seat adjustment buttons, sun visors, etc.), custom color contrast stitching on the seats, dash, etc. It added about $40k to the car.
