Wow.... my first impression, albeit brief, is great!!! Even got pulled over, for... get this.... not speeding but taking the off ramp too fast for conditions.

Cop was cool, and commented on how he could smell the "new" car. Let me go with a fix it tickets (didn't have my drivers license on me).

Played a littled with the bluetooth phone but for some reason can't get the mmi to access my full address book on my Palm 700w. Any hints?

More to come .....

I would have had mine already too if I didn't put in a custom color. What exterior/interior options did you go with?

The black alcantara stood out immediately. My '04 S4 had black leather, the alcantara makes a huge difference both in comfort (temperature) and not letting you slide anywhere.

I have the silver alcantara inserts on my 05 S4. It's feels great and cleans very easily. I just use a spray bottle with soapy water and microfiber cloths. everything comes off, coffee, whatever. After 3.5 years I had a tiny bit of pilling on the driver's seat but used a remington clothes shaver, just lightly and it looks brand new again. I suppose someone could do that a couple times over the course of 10 years or so. But it's amazing how durable suede can be.
