been staring at this thread all day... 18" looks great... i was second guessing my decision, but they give the car a nice look, and i bet it rides smooth!

Ride is fantastic. I'm very happy. I couldn't test drive a 'non sport' suspension and the 18" sport felt nice. I don't want to feel every pothole. This is great combo with an amazing ride.

Another point of comparison... when my car was in for tint, I got a 12 A4 quattro as a loaner. The handling and ride wasn't even close to the A6. Much firmer and more sway and float... not a good feeling.

Thanks for the great pics. Is that a pretty good representation of how Aviator looks in the bright sun? I'm amazed at the blue/green color, I haven't seen that in any other pictures.

My favorite color combo, pics are excellent.
I wonder if one can special order the velvet beige interior with dark carpet like what's available on the A7?
I think that would be a great contrast and also look cleaner with all the slush and snow in Cleveland.

It sure looks great with the beige interior. We just traded my wife's 2010 A4 S-Line for a 2012 A6 in Avaitor Blue with black interior. The color looks great in the sun and she wanted the darker interior package. After her black A4, preceeded by a black E Class, and my current black S4, preceeded by a black Shelby GT500, she thought is was time to park a new color in the garage.

Nice. Does a standard size water or pop bottle fit at an angle in the forward part of the space below the armrest like in the A4?

congratulations and the color combo is very nice but aviator is not dark enough for me so i got moonlight

I have the same color combo and love it. The only difference in my car is that I have the standard Prestige wheels.
I bought mine from dealer stock.

I am finding that the light colored mats get dirty very easily. But the interior is fine and stays clean nicely. I may spring for some black replacement mats after I make a mess of my beige ones. That would have been a nice option to have.

The one i'm looking at has the wood but it's glossy. Is the one i'm looking at normal ?

I LOVE the color combo. I took some pics in sun, in shade, and tried to capture the ambient lighting at night.
