Default Now I am cruising!

Ohhh baby... Beige over Beige Avant with no sunroof (or front grills by the fogs)! Just figured I would post the pictures as this is the first A6 I have ever seen in person sans the sunroof!

The upsides? I have some new-found respect for the 3.0 engine. Not having the 2.7T or 4.2 kept us from buying the wagon and opting for the MDX (my wife did not like the plastic on the Allroad or the "cross over" look, and they did not have them painted at that time). In fact, power is good... although a bit noisy at full throttle.

"Rental Car Beige" (sorry Melange lovers!)

"No Roof" I thought an A6 with no sunroof was an urban legend.

"Missing Grills" More airflow to the intercoolers? Oh wait... 3.0... guess they were stolen

Just change your license plate to: "GLDFNGR". Melange is a very classy color.

Default congrats.....I hate sunroofs--good find.

I think the sunroof was part of the premium package, or this was custom ordered w/o the roof.
