Default A4 questions

I am looking for some pics of a 2009 A4 with Ibis white and monza silver. I am also looking for some close up pics of S-Line interior seats, wheels and rear and front end.

At the same time I would love some feedback on the Drive Select in real life situations. I test drove a 3.2 with it the other day and have to say that it was fun but I want to know if people are actually using it (especially anyone with an S-Line)

Default I have an Ibis white 19" sport package equipped 2.0T Prestige with. . .

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/38132/audi_a4_exterior_b8.jpg"></center><p>
. . .all options except ACC and rear seat airbags.

This configuration is not SLine, but the wheels are the same, it has the sport suspension and Ecru or Cardomom or whatever the hell they call beige anymore sport seats -- it is SLine lite, in other words.

I have the ADS and I love it -- I use Individual, Auto and on the freeway with my 80 year old in-laws in the back seat, Comfort. Dynamic is really, er, stiff, as in:

"I'm a little stiff from Polo," "Buddy, I don't care where you're from, but if you touch me there again, I'll put your dentist into a new tax bracket."

Where was I -- Oh yea, the combo of the 19" sport package or Sline, one could imagine, and ADS is the ultimate in driver control.

The steering is so much more responsive when set to Dynamic, as are the engine and transmission when set likewise.

I typically set Individual to dynamic engine and transmission, dynamic steering and auto on the suspension -- some even use this set up and change the suspension setting to comfort.

This is much better than the set up I had on a 2003 allroad, since it only affected ride height.

This is Audis version of magna ride and adaptive everything else all rolled into one, slightly overpriced, package.

Don't leave home without it.

By the way, the 19" tires are SUMMER ONLY -- and they mean it!!!!

Default Wow - very nice car !

Seems like the S-Line isn't needed as the sport pack has most of the goodies and is $1K cheaper - I actually prefer the all-leather seats vs. the alcatera as I think they will wear better over time.

Does the sport package have the same exterior body moldings as S-Line?

Do you have sport package? If so how are the sport seats vs. the regular seats? Any pics. Also what color is the interior you have - I would love pic or 2 of the standard "aluminum hologram inlay" trim.
