Default And the wait is over...

After nearly five months of waiting from the time I test drove the car in December, my Quartz Gray A7 finally arrived on Tuesday. I have not had much time to get to know her (only driving to and from work), but with this being a four day weekend for me, I hope to get better acquainted. So far I am very happy and look forward to our road trip in July.

Some FYI's related to other posts:
1. Bought the car through Truecar.com, $1500 over invoice. Got the loyalty bonus and will be applying for the ACNA loyalty bonus (I have been a member for 10 years).
2. I do not have the Sport Package, but do have the Cold Weather Package. Steering wheel is four spoke.
3. Interior is Velvet Beige with Dark Carpet. The rear cargo cover is also dark brown, so no reflected light issues in the rear window.
4. The dealer (Audi Stevens Creek) offered me a deal in which I paid $3347 for a 7/70 extended warranty and threw in Audi Care maintenance for nothing. Called it the "Season of Audi" event.

I will post pictures later.

Thanks! I have both forums bookmarked since they are similar cars, just wasn't paying attention where I was posting. I need a vacation...

Congrats! Can you let me know if your invoice included any DAG fee and/or prep fee? Mine uncluded a 0.5% dag and $195 prep fee and caught me off guard. Dealer ended up splitting both fees with me and threw in some all weather floor mats, so wasnt too painful. Just curious if this was normal or if I got low balled.

Thanks.

DAG fee?

My sales guy told me the prep for my A6 included a detailing that was worth a couple hundred dollars, but I wasn't charged for it.

The Truecar price included a "Dealer Advertising Fee".
