What color is your stitching?

I found it strange that my steering wheel has white stitching and my seats have black stitching. My 2010 A3 with Titanium package had silver stitching on the steering wheel and seats.

FYI.... I just looked at the 2010 Audi Exclusive order guide and I believe if you ordered a Audi exclusive steering wheel you could specify stitching which I believe may apply to the shift boot as well but probably not the seats? Speculating here.... So basically, you would have to pay to order the black stiching to match the seats... Again, speculating here... Oh and that stitching would cost you $660! LOL Not to mention the Audi exclusive cost....

Cool, I thought I was the only one. hahaha That shiet does annoy me that the stitching isn't consistant throughout the car.

Since this is an alcantara owner's thread... how many of you would be interested in an alcantara shift boot?

I know my leather one squeaks, so it seems like a matching alcantara boot would look nice and not squeak.

Just another cost cutting measure, not impressed. However, having said that, this car is thousands less than the outgoing model. My TT 2005 has an unbelievable interior. The 2008 to current model of TT is half the car it once was as far as material quality of the interior and exterior. My 2007 GTI compared to the S4 has metal valve stems for the rims, better quality shifter, better quality sunroof closer etc, etc. Bottom line they cut the cost of the car and it shows.
