Default New 3.2 quattro

Hi there, found these boards yesterday. I've had my 3.2 for about a week now and I must say I am loving it:

Quartz Grey Metallic
Premium package
Nav+
Audio package with Sirius
Cold weather package
Lighting package
Sport package
power rear sunscreen

Seems like this is the "pose" of choice for all the other pics I have seen so far:

Back view:

Back view #2:

The ebony interior is hard to photograph, it always looks much lighter in pictures than in reality. This shot gets close to what it looks like in person:

Center console with Nav+....they had the same car with the same options only minus the Nav system...I was on the fence but in retrospect I am so glad I sprung for it:

More interior:

I am definitely a happy camper!

They had 5 of them on the lot, two in quartz, two in dolphin and one in beige. They all had exactly the same option packages, the only difference was some didn't have the navigation system.

Funny thing was, I went in with the intention to buy an A3, hehe.

Default Love the color

My new 3.2 Avant is also Onyx Grey Metallic. Congrats and enjoy. That color, like other metallics takes on great differences in sun and shade, doesn't it?

I thought I'd buy an A3 as well. If only the A4 had the DSG! So amazing compared to Tiptronic.

Default changing light and color

It is amazing -- in some types of light it even takes on a pale blue tint.

Default A3 impression

I really enjoyed driving the A3 with the DSG. I loved the drive but was not crazy about the car. What concerned me was eventually the novelty wears off. Once the fun of that style of driving begins to wane a little bit I didn't feel like there was a whole lot more to the A3 -- at least not compared to what I ended up with.

Default unless you're in a state with front plate laws... lose the front plate asap...

and have the dealer give you the correct front grill piece for no front bumper....
