Default Good news: My car is here, Bad news: Interior is fern green vice the platinum/sabre I ordered. So...

do I take Audi's $500 offer or reorder the car, realizing it took 18 weeks to get this one? Oh, and my car is the only 2003 Highland Green 6sp in NA according to AoA.

I wouldn't take it if you don't like green interior/ I don't, but it's my opinion

Default Do you have the time ? If yes, maybe.

Do you hate the Fern ? If so, do not take it.

Are you leasing or buying ? If leasing, maybe not so important.

I would hing it on how much I like or hate the int, and if I have the time for a new order.

It likely is the only one in NA.

Default Personally the fern green interior makes me nauseous.

resale sucks too, imho.

I'd either get a new one ordered, or change colors. I checked the national inventory, and there are quite a few in the Northeast, with two inbound on the ship. Farifield CT, College PA, and Zumbach in NY have Highland/black/plat allroads.

Would it be too much trouble to check the options on those cars for me, Ed?

I like the green/green- almost ordered it - but then thought "in a few years when I want to sell..."

Default The ones on the ground are well equipped, the ones on the boat are more standard.

What are the options you want, and what's the most you want on the allroad? I can do a printout and see if I can send you a scan of it. Where are you again?

Default If you're leasing and can stand the color, ok, but if you're buying...

no way. That color combo will take a big depreciation hit IMHO. When you buy it's best to stay with the more "in demand" colors.

Default Now hold it thar a darn minute ol' son.....

My allroad's inners are Fern Green and grave exception has been a takin'.

I like it.
The missus likes it.
The nippers like it.
Even the darn dog likes it.

Relatively speakin', it's all relates at to what pigment is related to what, in a relative sort of way
