Default Is anyone looking for B8 Avant 2.0T with Sport Package?

I believe it's a fairly rare combo currently, but Hoehn Audi in Carlsbad has a Quartz Gray Metallic Premium Plus with Sport Package that just arrived.

Has Navigation as well. Sticker was $44K.

Spoke to Nick, the internet guy, and did a test drive with him. Very nice ride/handling compared to non-sport. The 18" wheels look great too (riding on Bridgestone RE950s). This is definitely what the wife will get when her lease is up on her car.

Just a PSA in case someone was looking for one.

Default oooh. I may go up there on Sunday to try that out...

That'd be a fun and practical replacement for my S4 to go along-side the RS4.

Default The last two Avants they had sold the weekend they arrived.

Call Nick to set up a time. He's really good.

And really, we think the sport package makes a big difference in this car, especially with Quattro. I don't think I've seen too many sedans with sport package, let alone an Avant.

Hmm, I thought the 18" sport pkg came with Michelin PS2. Some regions get Bridgestone RE950s?

Interesting...wonder how they determine what tires will be installed with the sports package...I have the Michelins.

Current:
'09 A4 2.0T Quattro Meteor Gray Pearl, Light Gray Interior, 18" Sport Package

'99.5 1.8T Quattro Black, Sports Package, Bose

Default Interesting. And sorry for the typo. I believe they were RE050As.

Not sure how that decision is made. They're both summer tires, so who knows.

Default Do you have the sedan with 18" sport package? Maybe the 18" sport package on the Avant...

comes with the Bridgestones? Would be odd, but possible?
