Default I gotta stop reading AW...I had the worst freaking nightmare this morning!

I just received my Amulet S6 Avant...and inside was the most horrific site ever...Maroon leather and alcantara!!! I was freaking out, I hated it incredibly bad...thoughts racing through my head "how do I get rid of this?" I can't believe I ordered maroon!!! And it is far worse in alcantara than it is in leather...it was spotty where the stain wasn't taken up well...blah, blah, blah...absolutely horrible...all I could think of was waiting another 4-5 months for another one, or worse...KEEPING IT!

I didn't know that post about a maroon interior would cause me such distress!

So, one recommendation from someone who has (sorta') seen it...Don't get a special order maroon/alcantara interior for an S6 Avant!!!

When are you getting that freakin' car? I just got word that mine has made it across the Atlantic and is now at the port. What port? I have no idea. Hope to see it sometime next month.




2002 S6 Silver/Ebony (at the port)
2001 pre S6 allroad Silver/Gray
2001 330iC Convertible Silver/Black

You could have dreamed that there was an alphanumeric mixup and you ended up with an X1/9 instead.
