Default Audi has put out an order guide revision in the middle of both April and May...

That seems to be the usual schedule for rolling out info to the dealers, wonder if we'll see another revision with pricing by June 15th/16th?

Default THE first order...

and the order sheet was eerily similar to yours.

I just want the Premium Plus, B&O and the SLine package.

easy peasy.

Default Very nice... I'm leaning that way, but not until 2010.

That'll give the local techs some other schmoes cars to break in the meantime and maybe, just maybe the TDI will be out then. If the Avant came with the TDI I'd have something that could be a daily driver with decent gas mileage and be capable of towing a trailer every now and then all rolled into one.

Default Yup it's a shame the B&O is bundled with Prestige trim level.

I heard the B&O in the S5 and it sounded much nicer than the Bose in my B7.

Part of the perils of going with a launch vehicle is not so many a-la-carte options. I could do without the parking system, or lane assist, but Prestige trim level was required for B&O, S-Line, and Drive select so I'll make due with a couple things I don't really care for in order to get things I really desire.

Default Yeah, but if they do things right packaging like that reduces costs tremendously.

So hopefully they can tighten up on the pricing for the individual options a little bit in a big package like that. Because $2100 for navigation? Bwahahahahaha, ludicrous. I too could make do without the parking and lane assist radars and what not, but I'd like to have the power tailgate on the Avant and the advanced key gadgetry as well, so those ovarian assistance items come along for the ride.
