Default About to join the Audi family, new Phantom Black A6 on the way.

After months of research and test driving, I've made my decision. Thanks to everyone here for the invaluable info, I hope to learn more in time and contribute myself. I've always been a BMW guy, 3-series in particular, but needed a bigger car to accommodate my growing family (two teenagers now). Liked the 535, a lot, but fell in love with the A6 pretty quickly. Once that happened, I just couldn't wait 3-4 months to order a 2013 so my dealer found a 2012 for me, Phantom Black, Black interior, Prestige 3.0, 20" Sport package, LED package, Cold weather Package.

Looking forward to years of happy driving and will post some pic's after I get the car, should be by early next week.

Awesome, congrats! I ended up going the order route because I'm picky about what I'm spending $60k+ on... And so far the wait sucks! It'll be nice to have one of the first freshly minted 2013s, though!

What you ordered is basically what I got, minus the Innovation Package and the black headliner. Make sure to post some shots in the picture thread when you get it!

Congrats! The wait is long and painfull... I ordered nearly the same car (minus sport pkg) in March and it's due to hit port on Monday. At this point, I think I'd go pick it up if they'd let me
