You're very patient! I originally ordered in mid-August and the dealer crashed that car on the morning of delivery in late October. This is my second attempt at the order and March seems just too long to wait.

Decided to cancel this order and got the Graphite gray instead.

They let you do that? What ETA are they showing on the build sheet?

My SA just got back to me and said my date has been pushed back to the first week of February. Hoping that stays true even with the black optics package. I was also offered to change the color, but i was only otherwise interested in the ink blue... so looks like I will just keep waiting for now.

Looks like Audi just changed their "Build" feature (a/k/a the Configurator) on Audi's website- which now includes Samurai Gray metallic!!

Yup, I'm thinking it's worth the wait - Current ETA 03/27/2018 - 04/16/2018 (DRAFT ETA)
