Default 2010 Meteor Grey 18" Sport Pkg

Finally!! Picking her up tomorrow afternoon. Stopped by to take a look and she was covered up still. Then a few hours later she was unwrapped.

She arrived just yesterday at dealer. Does anyone know if there are spacers or something along those lines in the suspension during delivery? It seems to me that for a sport package in comparison to other pics I've seen this looks a little high? I did a double take at the sticker to make sure it had sports suspension and it said so. I'm hoping on delivery it'll be a little lower???

Hate to break it to you, but for 2010 the sport package will actually sit higher then other A4's for better cornering clearance.




Yea, there are blocks in the springs. Congrats. I love my meteor grey, even though it was a third choice I really dig it now.

It looks high, nothing like the sports suspensions I've seen on other cars.

Agreed...awful and disappointing. It's not as bad as the normal height. Mine was the only one on lot with sport package and I noticed that in comparison my car was still lower. Hopefully once the spacers are taken out it's not as high. I really liked the look on the 2009 sport package.

Wait wait! Isn't the sports suspension/S-line in the Prestige the same as the one in the Premium plus, just with 19" wheels? If thats the case, we've seen a few forum members already posting their MY2010 Prestige S-line A4s and it stands a lot lower then what we see here.

kiki143, I hope its an issue with the spacers still in there.

It will. It is shipped with blocks as everyone said. It will sit like all the other sport package pics on the forum, which is about 2 inches lower then those pics.
