Default 2017 S6 P+ has interior ambient lighting?

Hello all, just spotted one 2017 S6 P+ on sale (around 14% off MSRP) with Sports package, Drive assistance package, Comfort seat package, LED headlights and rear shades with standard 19" wheels. It has 41 miles on it and with right color combo.

One question, does 2016 S6 P+ has interior LED ambient lighting, i.e. the stripe of LED white lights that run around interior door panel, etc? I read that Prestige has it for sure and color can be changed via MMI, but not sure if P+ has it at all. Sales rep said P+ doesn't. I couldn't locate 2017 spec anymore from audiusa.com anymore.

Any help is appreciated.

It has, at least my 16 P+ does. What it doesn't have is LED overhead lights, they are the normal halogen kind.

From what I understand, a P+ has interior LED lighting along the door panals. (My 16 has) However it's not adjustable at all as far as color goes. And as Tinbad said the center lighting, and rear lights are standard lights (kinda getho tbh) I also believe the FULL LED package has a center sunglass holder in that center lighting island above, that the standard light package does not have.

Thanks folks!!

I just tested that 2017 S6 P+ this afternoon. Wife loves it and pulled the trigger and placed a deposit. I will pick up the car tomorrow... very exciting and my heart is still pounding with this big toy purchase.

Yes I verified as @Tinbad and @MikeS6 said, there is white LED strip lights along interior door panel on P+ and there is center sunglasses holder. The front and rear reading lights seem to be white LED too. (Pic attached.)

I will attach more pics of the car this weekend

The P+ has LEDs everywhere, including headlights and tails, and ambient lighting... just not color-changeable, which I'd never use anyway, so zero loss. He he. What I expected to see was the 'adaptive' turn-signals, which progressively light up towards the outside of the car. They look awesome, but all I've seen are amber in the rear, so maybe just Euro cars. Or maybe Prestige ones here, but mine are solid red at the back and amber in front, but blink full on and off, not progressively. Not a big deal, but they look 'cooler' like that.

Thanks folks, I think the one ambient lighting difference between Prestige and P+ is tthat Prestige has illuminated door sill and strip of LEDs around the center console/island where the knee will touch.

I am still thrilled by this S6 beast after 2+ months of S6 ownership.

Happy New Year to all!!

My 2018 has those too FYI. And illuminated sills at all 4 locations; wasn't expecting it at the rear. Only thing missing as I mentioned is color LEDs, which I don't care for.

Good to know!, looks like 2018 P+ added 20" standard wheels + full ambient lighting, but took out top-view camera from drive assistance package.

Also added standard LED headlights, which make the car look super aggressive, especially in all black (like mine). I honestly don't care for the top view camera anymore, since the very first rock chip I had with my other car with it, hit the freaking front camera and shattered the lens. The front camera should use a much sturdier lens, but it's the same as trunk and mirrors, and with labor, it'd cost over a grand, so left it along. Never need the mirror cameras, as I can just use the mirrors in their tilt-down position. But yes, front and rear sensors are a must. The other good thing is with air suspension, we can always raise the car if in doubt about hitting the spoiler.
