Apart from the iPad on the dash I would, rather have the a45 AMG. You can tune them up easily with the plug in boxes that, merc can't detect too,some people are getting great results, 0-60 on launch under 4 secs

Granted it doesn't look that special but the reviews so far have been very positive and it does sound lovely!

The wheels don't help, they're plain dull. Prefer the S3 wheels, though the rs6 wheels they put on the clubsport Quattro are the ones it should have had.

The only thing that puts me off the A45 is the engine.

Wasnt sold this car, but now after seeing the grey one ITS defo grown on me! WANT!

I think this car is very sensitive to colour choice and wheels. Also needs lowering, then this will be a beast.

Aye, looks good in Nardo with body coloured mirrors, black optics pack, black two tone alloys, super sports seats, and what must be a 'red' interior pack

Some of the 'ice' demo cars don't have the Super Sports seats - they have the same ones as S3 which are same as TDI Sport and S line chairs - but I have a funny feeling the Super Sports might be standard in the UK. Interestingly, this could mean the current design of buckets as we know them are dead - cannot imagine Audi offering three seat choices with the car?

Yes that grey ones looks quite nice; maybe the combo of the black optics and a flattering angle, makes the fornt arches looks very flared. If only the rear ones were as big and they made a saloon!

I think the white reflecting off the side is exaggerating the arches (looks like the door is a few inches further in).
