Default WOW......Just joined the club.......simply amazin' !!!!!

Just picked up my 4.2 in Casablanca white and melange interior, sport package, 17' wheels, CD changer, Nav, warm/ cold package, and Xenons.... whhheewww....can't wait until break in. Everyone that has raved about this car is on the money and sold me! The question now is....will I ever drive the Expedition again before the lease is up? My wife feels like she's been exiled to SUV Hell!
Thanks again for everyones' help in chosing my ultimate dream machine!

It would be poor form not to comment. Congrats! You will be looking
for reasons to go out and drive for weeks, By the way, Got Milk? That's
a good one for a 30 minute pass.

Just got my Silver/Onyx 4.2 last week, and am loving it!

Had my windows tinted yesterday, and am looking for a more aggressive sounding muffler or cat back exhaust system for the car. Anyone know who sells one?

Congrats on your new car.

Default Cograts Mike. What tires came on your car and with what options? Chrisls congrats as well.

Mine has the Pirelli's as with Chrisls'. I find the handling excellent and flat. How do you consider the ride and smoothness?

> Had my windows tinted yesterday

I was thinking of doing this too. I haven't seen any A6 with tinting. Does someone have a pic or URL of a light colored A6 with tint?

The car came equipped with the Dunlop 9000 tires,
and everything but a phone. My most enjoyable option for the morning drive is the neat brushed aluminum travel cup that fits perfectly in the upper cupholder...damn I love this car! I've formally owned a '72 XKE v-12, Lexus SC400, M-B SL600 & 500, Datsun 240 & 280Z's, and many a few Vettes....but nothing compares to this ride....114 miles and clocking!

Default Congrats-the A6 is like any relationship-you got to ease into it, but once you know the boundaries.

... you can have the time of your life.
