Default How do I find a car?

How hard could it be to find a car?
I am looking for a:
2014/2015 CPO
Any color but Silver(sorry silver owners)
DSG
Under 30K miles
19" wheels a must
Alcantara or White or Red Leather
I live in CT and am finding this to be a hard car to find? Any suggestions? I called a local dealer and if I said the dude who I spoke with seemed less than interested that would be an understatement.

May, have you considered searching on AUDI USA website under their CPO section? Have you reviewed the Classifieds section of this forum?

I have done both and come up empty. I just thought I might get some additional suggestions here. Worth a shot. I'm thinking time might get me to what I am after but impatience is not a virtue.

When you use the Audi USA website, are you searching out across the entire country, May?

I found mine by downloading the cars.com app and the autolist app. Entered the search criteria and sorted by mileage or price or however and went down the list. Also when a car gets put up that fits your parameters it sends an alert to your phone.
I called the 3 closest audi dealerships and spoke with reps. Giving them the specs of what I was searching. In 4 months I received 1 call and it wasn't even close to the specs I told the rep. So I wouldn't count on dealership reps calling you.

You need to go onto Autotrader.com or Cars.com. Put in your parameters and distance and see what they spit out. Don't be surprised if there are not many to choose from depending on where you live and how far you are willing to drive to get one. They did not make a lot of these cars and they have always been in high demand in the used car marketplace. Be prepared to drive at least 100 miles or more to get what you want. Good Luck

I have your car in my garage. If you want to come to NJ my dealer will CPO it and sell it to you. I am awaiting my TT RS which is on its way to the port to ship.

2015 Daytona Gray DSG with Sport Diff. The entire car is Opticoat Pro coated and perfect. 4500 miles. I already know they will CPO given its mileage and condition.
