Default Not sure what to buy, A4 Avant 2.0T or A3 3.2 for 08 model year...

It's time to trade in our B6 Avant, it is mostly the wife's daily driver so this is why we have it in Tip, it is the 1.8T Quattro model...

While I do like the new A3 it is rather pricey, especially in the 3.2 model, this is the one I would want as it has Quattro (haldex in this case)

I know that the B8 is just around the corner, at least in Europe. But the B7 appears to be very good value right now.

My question would be on the 08 offerings, is S-Line kit standard now ? Has the base price been automatically increased to reflect this or is it now a "free" option.
I would like to get the titanium package option also...
My preference would be for a Ibis white, Avant, 2.0T, Quattro and Tip...Would not opt for Nav as we already use a Garmin unit in our car which I have a good mount for.

I guess I would ask the forum for it's opinion and recommendations...

Default the s-line exterior is standard on the 08. the interior options are not....

and without the interior sline package, you cannot order the titanium package. i dunno the pricing for the 07, so i cant tell if u the price for the 08 has gone up.

Default skip the A3, go with the A4 Avant 3.2.....

A3 (even w/ awd) is not true quattro, rides harsh and has less cargo area.
