Nice one - I've just done my ideal spec......£116k!!!! ouch
Whats the advantage of laser lights over matrix, given that the existing matrix lights are similar to Wembley stadium at night?

mine came out about that too
not sure what added value the laser lights are aside from being cool - not sure I would pay the 2k for them

I like the interior seat belt buckles that illuminate....though 440euro...hmmm
1900 for red accents on the stitching, seats and seatbelts....kin ell!!
Typical.....reversing cameras are an option
No mention of matt paint on the configurator too
If pricing is the same in UK, thats a £104k base price. Somewhat more than the dealer thought it would be, as in a few 000 more than C7.
What was the pricing of the C7 - Germany - vs - UK when launched?

the C7 was circa £77k when it came out, not sure how much in Germany.
However the current RS3 is €56k versus £46k.
If the same pricing delta applies to the RS6 then its going to be circa £95k before options - similar to the M5 competition, although its possible to get 25k off a M5 at the moment and the M5 standard spec is higher than what's on Audi DE for the C8.

Pants! I tried the German configurator and kept getting errors with every option I selected. Let's hope they did a better job on the cars than they did on the website.

Mine came out around £114k at the current exchange rate.
Nardo Grey, full black pack and cognac leather amongst many other options.

Anyone know about the Matte colours? I couldn't see them on the configurator?

I'm looking at the co2 and mpg too.
Co2 higher than the old performance edition and mpg at 24mpg instead of the so called claims Audi used to make of 29 mpg average.
So they have had to come clean on their numbers this time. I understand about the mpg given now that under the wltp testing that you are given a more realistic outlook on mpg.
But didn't realise the new model would be higher in co2. Due to the mild hybrid, was it that Audi was lying before about the performance model co2 too?

Looking forward to trying this model but know there will be a performance model maybe even as early as September 2020. So will probably hold off to then to buy one.
Parkers in their preview of the car say it is 140kg heavier than the previous model.

According to everyone else it is lighter. Yes I know Car says the same as Parkers but it is word for word the same article so doesn't really count.

Ah ok, was hoping it would be lighter. So fingers crossed
