Default New A7

I just received my A7 about a week ago and absolutely love it. I have been lurking on this forum since I became interested in the A7 several months ago. This forum has been a great source of info. My only dilemma is that i have to get tires for the winter and have not decided whether to get all season or dedicated winter tires/rims. Car was order in mid-July and hit Davisville on 8 Oct. Dealer (Audi Warwick) was great and actually went to Davisville to pick up the car so I would not have to wait an extra week or so for the tansportation company to bring it to the dealer, which is less than 10 miles from the port! I actually live about 3 miles from the port and have driven by where they bring the cars in. It's rather interesting to see the all those "white covered Audis/VWs/Porsches" in the lots being loaded on car carriers and railroad cars!

I am not sure if this was covered in other threads but I wanted to say that the car came with the rear camera working (I think they work after build week 39 IIRC from sales rep) and my rear cargo cover is the dark one. I had inquired with the sales rep (who checked with Audi USA) and they told me I was supposed to get the light grey cover. We think Audi is monitoring feedback and is changing some things on our cars.

Unfortunately I have/will be travelling for work a lot so I am not getting much opportunity to drive it. Hopefully that will change soon.

Congratutulations! I picked mine up last night and so far I'm very pleased. I went with Prestige/Havana black/Nougat/Innovation/20" sport package/Cold weather.

I've read so much about this car and even with that much prep time there is still alot to learn!

Congratulations guys - nice to hear about the cargo cover not having to be the glare-inducing white one. Pictures please!

30 days to go until scheduled delivery for me - car should be almost halfway across the pond now...
