Default What features are absent from the '04?

Back-up camera? Keyless entry? Keyless start? rear climate control?

I don't think Canadian cars have OnStar and I don't own any bluetooth devices. So far so good.

Default Rear Climate control was an option on the '04

Also, the leg extension on the front passenger seat was not an option on the '04 - only for the driver.

No back up camera until 2007; better graphic representation around 2006 I think

Default If your cell is not bluetooth then look into it

I would say it is the best add on to any car. Worth looking at a late 05' for it

I'm with you as my cell phone (company provided) has no bluetooth thingy. I have a corded earpiece/microphone and it has speaker phone & voice dial. I think I'll keep my '04 as it is paid for. Last Audi went 286k before being donated to charity. I'm looking to get 350-400k miles out of this one.
