Hey, congrats on getting the new car!!! Gotta post some details and pics, yes?

BTW, I think the better camera utility is the one I've been seeing on TV ads where when the rear camera comes on and the car stops itself before you can hit the brakes, if someone/something crosses the car from behind.

Thanks, derf. Will post pics later as I'm on the road now. Details:

Phantom Black with Nougat Brown interior
Driver Assistance Package
Premium Package
Cold Weather Package
Bang & Olufsen Sound System
Night Vision Assistant
LED Headlights
4-zone Climate Control
Dual Pane Acoustic Glass
Panorama Sunroof

Other than the LED headlights, Adaptive Cruise, Panorama Sunroof, and Night Vision Assistant, this car is optioned in the same way as my previous '08 A8L. I thought the D3 was really good but, so far, I'm very impressed with the refinements and improvements they made in the D4.

That's quite a nicely optioned D4 sir! And yes, Audi did a good job in refining an already terrific car. Can't wait to see the pics :^)
