Hey you're buying an expensive car, wouldn't hurt to ask for the bow!


On our end we stopped at getting the photo taken. I thought it was cool, used to only see it on TV commercials

I told dealer I was buying it for my wife (I was), and this is how they delivered it to our driveway, it was fun, and unexpected. Thumbs up Sewel Audi.

That's a nice looking ribbon!


Ours wasn't as big:

My dealer didn't offer any bow and was a pitiful delivery! Watch out for the up-sell. The most egregious was the $336 for nitrogen in the tires. Just amazed that in this day they would even attempt it. I've been looking forward to Audi's follow up dealer review, but still nothing after 3 weeks.

Happened to watch this the other day. Not an endorsement for Nitrogen!

I know I've read consumer reports and others that have done long term tests and nitrogen definitely holds air better, but it isn't huge. Maybe 10% or so less air loss.

In my personal experience, tires that are regular air are far more likely to set off my TPMS on the first very cold night vs. tires with nitrogen.

That said, the outrageous price some charge is ridiculous. My local Firestone charges I think $5 or $10 a tire and then at normal service, will top up with nitrogen for no charge.

If Costco didn't offer FREE nitrogen than I'd put air in my tires.

My Audi dealer fills tires with nitrogen at no charge. Since I have a compressor at home I don't bother keeping them filled with nitrogen.

And the green caps go right into the trash!
