Default Yet another picked up a new toy today post

After a very long wait (ordered Jun 27) I got a very nice call from the dealer yesterday around 4p. He said my car had arrived and was just offloaded and will PDI'd and ready for pickup the next day. I told him that was awesome and that I was packing up the camera to get a few shots of her anyway. As I was en route to the dealer 20 mins later, he called again and said, the PDI was almost complete and if I wanted, I could pick her up in an hour or so.

I turned around, went to the bank, back home for some paperwork and then to the dealer. I drove off the lot with her around 730p last night.

Awesome car. Can't wait to play around some more. So far I have learned the MMI, played with my brand new VAG com and getting ready to install the DSG Shifter paddles from primetime. Better pics later but for now here are the mandated inaugural pictures.

Awesome! I get mine (same color, manual, Ti, Prestige) tomorrow! I can't wait. I literally made no money this week as all I have been doing is reading posts and scouring the web on 2012 S4's

Although it is a goal, I still have not had a chance to see glacier next to ibis in decent light. I think it will have a slight gray blue/gray hint to it. Not sure, but I really wanted Imola!
