Default Picture of my S6 /Silver interior

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/29656/front_drivers_interior.jpg"></center><p>Interior is much nicer than picture shows. I wanted to get more than what you see in the brochure but I'm not a pro with camera.

Alcantara is used for top liner and leather is typical (very nice) feeling Audi leather. Creamy smooth and comfortable. Seats hold you firmly during cornering and don't seem to make you feel clammy because they breath well. (This was judged in two more 2+hour trips today.)

Personally I tried an Alcantara interior in an S8 and found it to be unsettling, not smooth, but kind of like a baby blanket. If you like that sort of thing I guess it's OK. A note about the wood trim -- I'm glad that Audi didn't force the carbon fiber on the US market. I saw it in Germany and thought it was just barely acceptable. Then I rented a Chevy Lumina and it had carbon fiber inserts, looked cheap and gimmicky. While the Audi workmanship may be in a better class, the impression was not one for a $60k car. Sorry if I offend anyone who has this but the dark wood is far nicer. Too bad it doesn't show well in the picture.

A woman friend today riding in the back commented on how comfortable it was riding in my station wagon. Oh well, not everyone gets as jazzed up by an Avant as I do.

Default Very Very Nice! Post more when you get it in the sun!

I'd love to see more of this interior, maybe from some different angles too. Schweet!

Very nice interior! Intresting comments on the Alcantara inserts. I have not had a chance to try the Alcantra seats but will before I order them. I like the smooth leather feel as well, but I'm open minded. What is your exterior color? Thanks for the picture

Very beautiful! Classy. Is wood dark walnut, or the ash/gray(?) variety? Looks walnut.

Default Outstanding interior! :) Too showy for me ;-O but really nice...

actually it's not too showy, just too tough for me to keep sparking clean. It's got a ritzy and exclusive look to it...very nice.

Agree completely with the wood vs carbon fibre thing. CF is ok on some cars (when it's real) but the dark grey wood is perfect on this car.
