Default New owner-Pics-question

Just got my 08 RS4! Lava Grey custom color + Titanium + Audi Exclusive.

Is there anyway to get a "flat bottom" steering wheel in US which seems to be available in european models?

Piano Black really breaks things up nicely, but I'm biased.

Default Were you just at VIR last month?

There was a very similar car and it was absolutely stunning.

Thanks for the info.

I was told by the dealer that the only reason why Audi didn't put the flat bottom steering in US models is that they hadn't completed crash testing with the new type of steering wheel. That is really too bad. I saw the wheel on a TT and it looks great.

Thanks. No I just got it last weekend.

It happens to be my first manual transmission car! (yes embarassing I know) I am doing fine but I need to build a lot more confidence. I feel like I just started driving even though I have been driving for 20 years. I am commited to becoming great at it.
