Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I just picked up a B8 this week that I ordered back in June. So here are some pics of it! Thanks to a thread on here, I got finished exhaust tips, which look a lot better than the stock ones! Thanks! I realize the ride height is kinda high, but we get a lotta snow here (supposed to be some tomorrow!) so I don't want to be plowing too much snow..lol

By the way, this is a canadian model:
2009 A4 2.0T Premium
Nav, Drive Select, Wood trim
35% Tint (7 windows)

Floor mats are on backorder at the dealership..so I'm still waiting on those :( lol

And doesn't that also mean you have the sports suspension by default too?

Ya, in Canada there are only 3 trims: 2.0T Standard, 2.0T Premium, and 3.2

With 2.0T Premium, you have access to pretty much all the options except for S-line I think.

And thanks for the comment :) I've always liked blue on beige..I just wish the darker blue was available when I ordered the car :(

Ya, I think that is the case..at least at the time I ordered it. I haven't checked/gotten an updated order sheet, so I don't know if they've changed it over the summer.

I would pick this light wood with black interior for some nice contrast but I think darker would goes better against the brown upper dash and door panels.

Canadian Premium standard equipment that US Premium just can't have:
- Bi-Xenon headlights (standard on US Premium+)
- LED DRL (standard on US Premium+)
- Rain &amp; speed sensitive wipers (standard on US Premium+)
- 3-zone climate control (standard on US Premium+)
- Electrically adjustable front seats with driver's seat memory (standard on US Premium+)

Canadian Premium standard equipment has is optional in US Premium:
- Auto-dimming interior mirror with compass (standard on US Premium+)
- Heated front seats (standard on US Premium+)
- iPod integration (standard on US Premium+)
- Symphony with 6-disc CD changer (standard on US Premium+)
- Bluetooth (standard on US Premium+)

Available as option that US Premium can't get:
- Advance key (standard on US Prestige)
- Parking system with rear camera (optional on US Premium+)
- Side Assist (standard on US Prestige)
- B&amp;O (standard on US Prestige)

I had a deposit on an almost identical car (no nav/ADS), but the astronomical lease prices made me back out of the deal...

The price of a Canadian spec Premium+ is more than a US spec Prestige, and probably close to the new US spec B8 S4 next year.

It's available in Europe.

I once test drove a G35 with such a combo and have been hooked since.

Looks terrific, congrats!

Every B8 at my dealer has them on already, and I asked my service advisor if they were putting them on but he said that they had been coming like that. I'm not so sure though.

I'm a huge Cardomon beige fan.

I had it in my 2002 1.8T and loved it but back then wood trim was not an option on the 1.8T so I had aluminum trim which was ok, but just too bland.

I currently have CB in my B7 2.0T with walnut trim and it's, by far, my favorite interior combination for the A4.

I REALLY want Cardomon beige again in a B8 but I'm going to have to find another option because Audi has chosen to only offer the light wood trim with Cardomon across the entire lineup.

I loathe the light wood trim. I wish I didn't, but I just do.

I realize it's a pretty petty thing and that I should evaluate the car as an entire package but I just can't bring myself to look at that trim everyday and I do not want the beige/aluminum combo again.

Audi is not (at least currently) offering a single overall interior color combination that I love on the B8 A4 and that bothers me.
