Default Photos of the New Car! Finally!

Finally had a chance to take some pictures of the new car-when it was clean.

For those of you who are iPod fans--I use and iTrip which seems to work pretty well. I do get a very slight very high pitched whine occasionally. Can't wait for a direct connection some day!

Anyway --enjoy the pictures!
Jim

Default Very Nice!

It does look like you get a great view out the back w/o the rear headrests. I love that debadged look on your car. Great pics, I assume PaulW will put a few up on his webpage.

Now why is the car in Neutral, the Tach is at 600 RPMS, and then you decide to take a picture! Beautiful car! Enjoy.

Audi does need to offer or reduce the rear seats headrests since they lowered the rear deck / window so much. I'm sure the safety nuts (NSTA)will get a hold of this issue eventually when seeing out the rear causes accidents/poor road visibility.
