Strange.... just noticed today that the Audi Tracker and JSON is listing options that i have not ordered.

It is listing HUD and Storage pack, which is not part of my build. Should the info on here match what you have ordered or is this inaccurate?
When I bought my 6 it was wrong and for many people ordering an RS3 at the same time it was also wrong. Looks like that hasn't changed then.

It should do
If they’re not charging you for hud and storage pack, I’d keep quiet personally ;)

It should be, but it's widely known to be inaccurate. On the TT forum there are many stories of 'Tech Packs' being shown on orders/builds that were not specced with it, and other things such as Mag ride. When the cars have turned up they have been as per the original order. Don't get your hopes up! :D

I haven't followed all of this thread but know that Markp is either in or getting a B9 and I'd be very interested to know how the ride compares to the RS6 in everyday conditions.

My C7 is DRC on 20s and I use it in Auto on some pretty rough rural roads. Comfort offers too poor control for me. Dynamic too hard.
B9 on DRC in Auto and 20s (I have ordered 19s but not driven one yet) feels more nimble - unsurprisingly - but ride not quite as good as C7. A smidge firmer and less NVH isolating but close enough to keep me happy. Comfort is very good and not so floaty as 6. I am guessing - and hoping - DRCs with 19s in Auto is handing sweet spot.

Thanks Mark, I'm only 6 months into my PE and I like it a lot but I do miss the nimble feel of my last RS4 and it is a barge, however I love the ride and it's been a revelation after the last couple of years in a B8. I am not going to change for at least 18 months but I couldn't go back to the ride quality of the B8 so would appreciate any updates.

Hi all

I did an early order and received mine on the 13. Feb. Had to upgrade on space (Coming from a Nissan GT-R MY15) and I really love every aspect of it.

I've got some pictures here from the day of the pickup. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipN ... dIeE1yZGhB

Its currently running on the 19" default rims but I just put in an order for the HRE P107's (20") in gloss black.

As for the specs, I'll compile a audi config once I have time.

Cheers

That's a LHD car in Switzerland with no reg plates fitted.
Just saying.
