Tell me one thing, how is it possible to preserve the new car smell for a long time? I didn't do it for my A3 but for my B7 i definitely want to do it... i love the smell .

Thank you,

I have the Aluminium option, it looks like 'woven material' aluminium, cool. I have the sports suspension and it is a must for cutting the inherent audi understeer. I also got the S4 18' wheels with it and it is worth! it. I also have the dension icelink plus ipod kit and it is mounted on the console, oppisite my phone cradle, (not used with bluetooth) works well. I have the bluetooth option and it is definately worth it. You can scroll through all the names saved on your SIM card (push MODE) with the left scroll wheel. The Button on the left of the wheel is to activate the voice commands on your phone, say the name and the 'car' dials. When you answer a call, push the left scroll wheel, adjust volume with the right scroll wheel, and the car mutes the stereo or pauses the 'ipod' for the call, all cool stuff !! )

Good question. Here is what I do.
The A4 is now the company car. It will be my personal car in about 2 years. As a company car it is used for business use only and only used a few times a week. Being the car is garaged and closed up most of the time the new car aroma stays longer.
Also no food in the car!
Keeping the inside clean so no outside orders are introduced helps some.
The leather interior has a natural aroma that adds to the overall effect.
It not much but seems to help preserve that delightful smell a little longer.

Figured that much on my own, i don't eat or smoke or do anything inside the car that could change the smell. I thought maybe there is some kind of upholstery 'treatment' that preserves the smell.

Off topic: Your car was delivered July 25th? Mine was 27th... They're almost late delivered twins
