Nice! Thanks for the info.

 

Awesome, thank you!!!

 

Seems Audi is forcing more "upselling" on the cars, by reducing the ability of the consumer to self-select the various options desired.
While the advent of the TDI engine is great, Audi of America should allow greater consumer choice in determining what options our cars have.

 

Ugg, figures the 2014 sport package now comes with all seasons rather than the crappy summer Pirelli's.

Wonder if I can talk my dealer into swapping out the Pirelli's now when my 2013 arrives in a few weeks. Every dealer I spoke with was a no go with this when I was searching.

 

Wonder what the new wheels are. I like the sound of the black package with titanium rotor wheels.

 

I disagree with that. Most people have complained about getting nickled and dimed for every option on German cars.

The amount of clients that don't want navigation, back-up camera, etc on a 310 hp AWD luxury car is slim. So I can see Audi's logic in going with a Premium Plus as a basline the 3.0 models. Very few people bought a Premium model 3.0 Quattro A6.

You can't buy a similary equipped 300 hp plus AWD BMW 5 series or MB E class with the same equiptment as an A6 for the 56-57k price point of the A6 Premium Plus.

Audi has them beat handily in the value department on that.

 

The 19" 5-double-spoke wheel looks almost exactly like the 18" wheel that came with the 2012 18" sports package.
The 19" Star design wheel is the same as the 2012/2013 19" sport package wheel

 

Thanks for posting this. Any idea when the dealers will have the actual order guide? Summer could be May or late August.

 

Where can we view a picture of the new 19 inch rim?
