Must have options?

Hi Guys

I'm seriously missing the sound and set up of my RS4 Cab and one of the cars that I had on the list as its replacement is drawing me in closer - R8. I want to wait till March/April as I'm hoping prices may start to come down again, considering the increase seen over the last 6 months, but I'm not sure I will be able to!

Anyway, for those that have one what is good/bad on the options list?
I think it will be manual only for me, but I need to get a feel of the options I should look for.

Thanks
Max

Manual, phone, parking sensors. sat nav heated seats magnet damping and thats about it.

But I would have loved carbon engine trim.

do parking sensors come front and back?
what are the extra benefits of the magnet dampening?
any thoughts on what hifi options are available?

thanks

Sorry forgot mine does have B&O but in a small car I am not sure it is worth the price, but then again I have never looked at a car with the standard hi-fi, yes the parking sensors are front and back, the camera would have been another bonus, my mate has one in his and it shows the position the car will steer to which is handy, but the sensors are good.

For me I would have loved the engine trim, mine is white so the silver blades look cool, carbon would look to much of a contrast magnetic damping works really well and is usefull if you intend to track the car or do some fancy road driving.
