Default Need suggestions about options for 2.7tq

I'm trading in my A4 for an A6 2.7tq. Most come standard with leather/moonroof/heated seats etc. Any thoughts on whether to add Xenon headlights, auto dimming mirrors, radio controls on the steering wheel, premium Bose stereo or sports package (seats and suspension).<p>Jim

I would say add all those options...it really "makes" the car IMO.

Firstly I would like to say you lucky bugger! You can afford a 2.7T A6 Avant.
All the options you said are OK except the auto dimming mirror.<p>Haseeb Ali

Heated seats -only in cold country. NOT in Texas. (105 yesterday). I don't care for Xenon mainly because I drive very little at night and they are too expensive. The standard lights are excellent (IMO). Autodimming is now separate? In '00 it was part of a package. Anyhow, it seems ok to me. But not if it is real expensive. Definitely get the Bose and CD package and the sport suspension. The radio buttons are handy also.

What's wrong with the auto-dimming mirror?

No auto dimming - a really dumb idea, and worse execution.
Standard lights are fine.
Get leather, sunroof, sports package.Save the money you would have spent on the other gizmos for a chip and 17" wheels, and summer tires.
