Of course this is my personal choice. I have all available options except ceramic brakes and towing hitch.
Must have:
- Matrix lights,
- 360 degree cameras
- HUD
- 4 wheel steering
- air suspension (I think it's standard in SQ8)
Nice to have:
All other options except Intelligent Park Assist and Remote Parking, heated windshield. These 2 are IMO wasted money.
Assisting systems sometimes are annoying but you can adjust them or even some of them turn off completely. Unfortunately majority of them you will have to buy in the package.
PS. If you really don't need sunroof don't buy it. It often creak on bumps , repair is quite complicated and not always successful. I don't know, perhaps it is my bad luck but I had sunroofs in may last 3 Audi and all of them where creaking. One more other less but all where creaking. BTW this problem is know to Audi and there is even a TSB on it.

I ordered advansed Suspention which includes active roll bars and do not regret a cent. It was the first option on my list. Yes, sometimes I probably drive a little more dynamically than everyone else, but it's very nice to feel the car is always parallel to the road in turns. And on a bad road, it is more comfortable than usual, as the roll bars relax.

@retom can you provide the diagram of the SQ8 seat in an exploded view? i want to see how the side bolsters are attached to the seat frame. I'm having trouble getting to a "comfortable" position in my new SQ8 unfortunately. I'm inquiring with the dealer as to my options - perhaps deflating the side bolsters will provide the comfort i am looking for.

Has anyone had any luck with further adjustments than available in the MMI? I have the bolsters set all the way out, and they still pinch my wide shoulders/back.
Considering trying a pillow for a bit or looking into mechanical adjustments to the side bolsters.
