Default Cold weather package

Since I live in Florida, I did not order the cold weather package. Even without the package, the Q7 has heated front seats. The cold package only adds heated rear seats and steering wheel. Am I being short sighted for resale value by skipping this $500 option? What made me think of this is that I got a call from a guy in Michigan on our X5 that we are selling for the Q7 and the guy passed since it does not have heated seats (not even front without cold package in 2011 X5). My order has not yet locked so I can still add options if needed.

Personally speaking, I would add the cold wx package and drop the Tofano White - the former is $500 and the latter $1075. Add Glacier White...I would think no one really is energized over a premium white color when it comes to resale.

I live in Georgia and even though we will only use the Cold Weather Package 2-3 days out of the year, I thought it was worth it for the long term value and trade in options down the road. Also got the RSE prep for the same reason.

Where did you get yours? And were you able to get the 6% ACNA discount (if you're a member)? I'm in Atlanta, picking up my Prestige later this week.

I am a member, but was only able to get the 4% from the dealer. The dealer couldn't do the additional 2% from Audi. I purchased from a dealer in Atlanta. I sending you an e-mail with the name and salesman.

Adding the Cold weather pkg and keeping Tofano. Wife like unique colors (last two cars were a variety of red). Unfortunately the Q7 doesn't come in any unique colors except argus brown and she doesnt want brown car, so Tofano is the most unique option we have.

Default Add Cold Weather Package?

I’m getting a 2019 Q7 Prestige and I thought rear heated seats would be standard on the Prestige model. I don’t see it on the sticker. This sounds crazy but can the Cold Weather packages be added after? My kids would thank you!!
