I'd love to find a car in OR. Unfortunetly that one is about $10 more than I want to spend. Also it's not showing on your website.

Good luck w/ search. Take your time for the right one. And time is on your side. Figure soberly (for owners) around ⅓ (!) depreciation to go by time the D5's land here.
FWIW, the two sites I found more cars than elsewhere were of course Autotrader, and also CarGurus. Then there is CraigsList; typically what I found was in my own metro market, but sometime elsewhere when you get into a low volume spec. I used the Search Tempest tool to reach across local CL areas; there are some others I think too.
Since you want Balao Brown, that gives you an unusual word to each on and narrow down results ("Balao"). In my case I was looking for Vermont Brown, and I found "Vermont" similarly narrowed mine. Sometimes I also searched on "Exclusive," both because either interior is an "Audi Exclusive" interior and because sometimes I would find one off custom ordered cars. Those often seemed tied to a Michigan history; my guess was they were Audi USA show or exec vehicles.
BTW, in looking at an Audi Exclusive interior w/ the Balao Brown, you also have a greater chance of finding your option goodies, since those cars are more likely to be optioned up. Finding Night Vision was the hardest one for me.

I did just see this one and it looks pretty nice. No night vision though and night vision would be very useful to me. When it's dark around here it's cold enough to work and we have a LOT of wildlife.

That car looks pretty nice... but they are a little high on the price. I can tell you the wholesale price on that car is $41,000 (if it's in Above Average condition). You should be able to buy it for $43,000 - $44,000 if you are doing a cash deal (no trade).
