Interestingly no 22" option, but they have just appeared on audi.de so clearly are (almost) available !
See all my posts above. It explains all. ;)

What's the biggest size subwoofer you can fit in the boot?

I reckon 4 x 18 inchers driven by 4 1k monobloc amps. Should get about 150 db enough to make your ears bleed. Lol

True story! :lol:

Having deliberated on the spec, I've kept reminding myself that it's well equipped out of the box, so I'm sticking to aesthetic options only, and a few things like sun blinds and rail system. So all I have to do is choose a colour to go with the black styling package and the 22s. I think I'm down to four...

Night black

Daytona

Pure white

Sepang

I was originally sold on Sepang, but having accidentally selected white, I think it looks rather good and highlights the details better! Black on black looks good too, then there's Daytona for the more understated look.

Choices choices. I do love the early days of car speccing/choosing! :thumb:

Daytona looks best, then black, not too keen on sepang but ok. Imo White has been done to death and now looks a bit cheap and chavy!

Not for me. White is for small cars. Struggle to sell on. Spending that money I would have to go exclusive

Ps great spot with that video.
White looks mean, blue looks boring and Daytona looks quite classy, and is def the sensible choice
Most of the video test reviews are on a Daytona car - and the manufacturer will be smart about promoting the colours that look most favourable
Its not a pretty design at all; they have their work cut out !
