Do all 2012 models come with a camera standard, now? That's what I was thinking as I don't even see it listed in the prestige package.

The Premium Plus was made much better. 18 inch wheels are now included, and the the S line modings, door sills, and rocker panels are all standard on a Premium Plus. They are also giving you exterior dimming mirrors and memory seats as well.

Love the fact you can get advanced key as a stand alone option on p plus, and it doesn't require navigation.

no mention of any back up camera on the 2012 order guide, hopefully its a mistake. I saw the canada order guide and they are showing 2 different nav systems, one with the camera and one without.

Does 2012 law require all cars to have b/u camera?

I see no mention of it on q5s either.

The camera was a big selling feature for me.

Pretty sure it's only a proposal at this point, and it would be for 2014+

That is good news about the P+. I have 12 months left on my lease. I looked at the Acura TL 2012 refreshed model yesterday. (Less toothy grill but no beauty queen) I was planning to shop around because the A4 P+ in 2010 had less features than my 2009.

Question: Does the standard suspension set up drive better with the 18" wheels than the 17"?

I like the sports package but the lowered suspension is a mixed blessing. If they had the SP features at the same ride height I would prefer it.

Does the S4 have the lowered ride height also?

We are close to $4.50 a gal for Premium this week. A diesel would be my preference. A3 is a bit girly for me.

Does a Q5 move with the 2.0 engine?

So the premium plus now has the rocker panels? nice... I'm glad that the advance key is also an option on P+.

in 2011 the backup camera was included when ordering nav so perhaps it's offered the same way for 2012 and just not exposed as a separate option. best to wait & see if it's important.
