Default RS5 arriving soon... any vcds mods yet?

I’m pretty excited about my nogaro blue RS5
arriving. It just finished production last Saturday and they say it’ll be shipping out of Emden soon.

Has anybody received one of these bad boys, yet? Tried any vcds mods?

Otherwise, how is the car?

I’m interested to hear the thoughts of new owners as well. I should be receiving mine in the next few weeks. Unfortunately, it’s been stuck at the VPC in Halifax now for 2 weeks!

Pirchased mine back in Oct ‘17 and starting to get a bit impatient! 😂

Congtrats on your upcoming build! It’s exciting to know when it moves from a bunch of parts to something that resembles an automobile.

I suspect that it has the same MMI version as the S4/S5, so I recommend starting there. There's a lot of commonality between cars in the same model range, and some even stick around through generations.

Cool -- the one mod I've done on every Audi I've owned is to add the gear indicator on dashboard. I have no idea why that isn't enabled standard

I ordered mine in March, the day it was announced. Prior to that, my contact at the dealership said it wasn't even possible to order. According to the emails he forwarded to me from Audi corporate, mine was the first US order for an Audi Exclusive RS5 (due to the custom color)

Congrats! Report back with what works for you! Agreed on the gear selector - maybe it's just TMI and Audi thinks it'll confuse folks?
