Default New to forum and car

Hey guys, I am new to the Audi world just bought me a 2012 Audi A6 3.0T Quattro Premium Plus, previous car was a 2013 Nissan 370z Touring w/ sport package. Love the Z but can't drive it in winter so had to give it up for an AWD car to drive in winter. I picked this platform because I've heard Audis' have the best AWD system.

So far I am loving this car expect it does not have Bose or B&O sound system.

Here are couple of pics of my ride and just got it tinted yesterday. 15% all the way around and 5% window strip.

I would not worry about that, you are actually better off without them and spending some of the money you would have spent on getting them to do an aftermarket upgrade of your system. Here is a thread on what I did and it blows away either the Bose or B&O for less cost

Good luck

Awesome thanks! What I was thinking is to do a 10" or 12" subwoofer to use with the factory radio.


Thank you all for the welcome!
