The Q7 I saw at Ingolstadt was 200k euros, so you are low on that assumption. I saw two being delivered that day also, so I guess some people can justify it...

Did you get heated seats? I garage mine and really haven't bothered buying the cable. A Frostheater would be a better option, than the block heater for instant heat. Also, our cars have a supplemental electric heater, so it doesn't take too long to get the heat going. FWIW, only the first...

Just drive in M, same pep and you can upshift when you want.

I have a beagle and a basenji\whippet, both go in the crate which fits nicely in the back with the seats folded. Keeps hair and clean up to a minimum!

I also have problems keeping my Droid X paired, frustrating but my wife doesn't like me talking to her with the BT so it doesn't bother me. I wish the heated seats had a light to show they were on and turned off with the car. Audi thought too long on these, GM has a nicer setup IMO... Also...

I didn't realize but could have gotten a 335D for about the same money that I paid for the A3 with all of the crazy discounts that they were offering back when I had to order it. We saved 3% of the price of the car, all other Audi's are 5%. Also, the car is official now, I finally got the...

Haha, yeah, the Red Light district was a big disappointment, you can see way more on South Beach! We actually took delivery of the car on our anniversary, I am a pretty lucky guy to have a wife like her! Hmm, ok, timeline: Feb. ordered car May paid for car May 25 took delivery in Germany June...

We stopped that night for dinner and drinks at Augustiner Keller. Friday 6/4: Wake up and head home. :' ( All in all the car was a blast to drive. The brakes leave something to be desired and unless you keep the revs up in the diesel...

(That should have been the lake at the top of the San Bernadino Pass, but it was still frozen over.) Only the "front" side of the Stelvio Pass was open, the back side was still snowed over, as you can see in my picture, the...

After the Nurburgring we head for Heidelberg for the night. Monday 5/31: Leave Heidelberg and head for Triberg. But first a tour of the Heidelberg Castle and a shot of the famous Heidelberg Bridge. On the way to Triberg we...

Misc. A3 content. For dinner that night, we went to Wally's Farm in Poperinge. This was probably the highlight of the trip. It is a family style dinner house, where Wally who is a Elvis enthusiast provides the entertainment. If you are in the area you HAVE to stop here...

The Grand Place. Our walking tour of Belgium was courtesy of Cantillon Brewery that has it on their website. It took you by all the big sites in the city and then ended at the brewery. I would definitely recommend both. The brewery has a self guided walking tour, which...

A shot of the inside of the Forum and the delivery area And my car, waiting for us to pick it up! After the factory tour, we toured the museum and got on the Autobahn to Dusseldorf. Got the car up to 120mph. Wednesday 5/26: Leave Dusseldorf, head for Amsterdam...

Tuesday 5/25: Delivery Day! Greeted at the Munich Central Station by Wagner, with an Audi sign. Driven to the Forum in a black A8L (I presume, for some reason probably 50% of the cars in Europe don't have badges identifying the model...). Delivery went pretty well, the majority of the...

Ok, I have been asked a couple times about my ED (ugh, yeah, that is European Delivery, not the other thing...), so I will post the story here as well: Ok, an overview of the car in case you haven't read through the whole thread, it is a 2010 A3 TDI with the Titanium Package. We put 2013 miles...

I live in Chicago, and yes, most mornings inside my garage is below freezing.

Do you have an account on audi world? I have a detailed trip report there under their european delivery sub forum... Oh, to add to this, audi claimed that the cord isn't included and that it is $140 at the dealership, I will be calling them back because everyone I have talked to sats that it...

I just got home in mine and thought of this thread when I was hopping in, and no lights...

Yep, my car is equipped with it. I might take this up with Audi in addition to other things they will hopefully be doing for me since my car took about a month longer than they claimed for re-delivery...

I picked up my car on Tuesday (it was ordered back in Feb. but was a European Delivery car) and I didn't receive the cord to plug the block heater in. I sent an e-mail to the dealership and they told me that it is no longer being included in with the car, is this true? When I ordered the car...
