Hello everyone,<br> i just wanted to share with all of you, my great news. after much thinking and going back in forth, i decided to order my A4 1.8t. i went to Carlsen Audi in Palo Alto, CA and spoke with Mike Bradley. he by the way is GREAT!! we then checked what was going to be coming in the 99.5's. i found the following and put a deposit down:<br>-99.5 A4 1.8t<br>-Volcano Mica<br>-Black with Ecru interior<br>-Quattro<br>-Tiptronic (because of SF bay area traffic)<br>-Sports Steering Wheel (with Tiptronic Controls)<br>-All-weather package<br>-sunroof<br>-opted not to try and get one with the sports package because ill by getting h&r coil-overs and rims myself...=)<p>Mike anticipates that production will start in January and delivery by end of February, beginning of March. it is unknown as to whether the stereo is the one with the in-dash cd player. im hoping it is!! furthermore for those that wanted to know...i got the car at 7% over invoice which isnt bad, in my opinion. <p>I would just like to thank all those on this board to helping in making my decision and for those in the SF bay area....look out for the newest member of the club...WETQTIP...=)<p>Allan<br>99.5 1.8t qtip...soon to be WETQTIP
