Default It had to happen...
...went to my health and tennis club yesterday and there was a Quartz Grey A7 Prestige in the parking lot.

I have never seen another A7 in town until this sighting.

Strange - I never felt this way about the uniqueness of any car before.

Here in the DC Metro I feel like I'm seeing more new A7's than A6's. I've got the only one in my neighborhood, but there is another one in my office garage.

At first I thought you were going to file your first door ding report. At least it was nothing that dramatic. Still somewhat ticked at my first ding.

Agreed. Consider that Audi sells around 8,500 A7's in the US while BMW sells around 56,000 5 series, and Mercedes sells around 65,000 E series. And Audi only sells around 19,000 A6's.

Where are you in DC? Only A7 in my neighborhood that I know of (arlington/clarendon) but see them around DC off and on. Only spotted one fellow S7 so far.

Am I alone in thinking the A/S7 will grow to become one of the truly iconic timeless car designs like the citroen ds or the Avanti?
