So I placed an order...

[Anthony]

2006 A4 2.0T AVANT 4-DR 6-SPD QUATTRO
MORO BLUE PEARL EFFECT
EBONY INTERIOR
FRONT PLATE FILLER PANEL
REAR PARKTRONIC
SIRIUS SATELLITE RADIO
TECHNOLOGY PKG / BLUETOOTH
SUNROOF PACKAGE
PREMIUM PACKAGE
S-LINE PACKAGE - PERFORMANCE TIRES

Should arrive sometime in October/November. I hate waiting, who knows what I'll want in 3 months. Wish they offered DSG on the A4s though, as I would have opted for that. So in the meantime, guess I'll just start compiling my mod list. [:D]

Looks to be the only Moro Blue 6-speed Avant on order in the State, so that's cool. [cool]

[HazeJz36]

Niiice.... saw a moro blue for the first time in person yesterday... bad ass...... congrats...

[dubless]

Very Nice!! I saw one here in San Diego last weekend and with the ebony interior it really looks sharp. That color combo was my very close second choice when I placed my order for Arctic White.[up]

[DoThisMyWay]

Sweet! Nice choice. [up]

I should be getting my S-line Avant in a couple weeks. It's been a long wait... [=(]

[aussie_s4]

Congrats Anthony, nice choice. [:)]

I haven't been following the A3 forum closely...why didn't you go for an A3? Didn't want to wait for a Quattro?

[DesertA4]

Damn!! That's going to be one nice avant!

[FINA4]

Congrats man! Where can I find details for the S-line package?

[Axxis]

wait and the a3!? I am out of the loop

[Anthony]

The A3 is officially my brother's daily, the B7 A4 shall be mine. The GTI shall be bye-bye.

What sort of details do you want to know, FIN? It's basically sport suspension, 18" RS6-style wheels, larger S4-like door flares, S4-like front and bumpers, unique S-Line front grille, badges, and steering wheel. $3,000 option.

[imola_Jon]

Nice choice man! Finally we'll have an admin that actually ownes an Audi!! hehehe

That's pretty much. I'm mostly interested on what kind of seats it will have. The European sport seats are so much better than the stock seats.

[ImaVunDerBrah]

wtf.. how'd I miss this?! Huge Congrats!!

I desperately wanted Moro Blue when I was searching for my B6 but there just weren't any to be found. Great choice. [;)]

[robots_are_neon]

congradulations, thats going to be awesome, when you say s4-like do you mean exact or little things that are differernt, when I studied pix, the front bumper looked identical so what if any is differnt about the front, the rear looked totally different and also the door blades on the s-line are bigger, thanx.

[Ferris]

congrats... moro blue is hot.

[Anthony]

We don't get the nice S-Line seats here in the States, unfortunately. [:(]

I haven't had a chance yet to study the body parts side-by-side, but from what I've seen...the front bumper is identical to the S4, the front grille is slightly different (same larger size and grayer color but with thicker un-split slats). Not sure on the door flares, but the rear looks the same which is also the same as the regular A4 but all painted instead of the gray lower center piece on the regular A4.

That all sounded pretty confusing. I'll post comparo pics later this week.

And yes, Moro is hot! Going to be really hot with the Ebony interior...literally... [:p]

[A4Shizl]

Nice.. porops to you. bro..

[EVIL-AUDI]

It's about damn time!

[J-roc]

No comment! I'm going to make sure my A3 stays faster than your soon to be new car... [:D]
Can't believe you order it!

Can't believe you order it! We'll see about that, punk! My isht will not only be faster, but look better standing still! [:p]

[copkilla1.8t]

looking foreward to seeing lots of pics when it arrives. [up]

[RippleChip]

Nice Anth....looking forward to these comparo pics.

Driveway is going to be alright when the family gets together [:p][:D]

[mcpath]

sweet. nice set of cars you got.

[minira]

not another black one? u suck! congrats tho, i know yours will look tight.

[Knoxvegan]

Anyone have a pic of Moro Blue?

[Anthony]

Eh, doesn't photograph well. It's a much better color in person. Looks black in pics. It's that dark, but in the sun...hummina hummina!

[Imperial]

ex post facto, but

CONGRATS! When's it arrive?!?!

[Anthony]

Looking like November... [:(]

[angryswede]

congrats, anth!

is the moro blue the cool blue color your brother got his A3 in?

[Anthony]

OK come on Scott, I know you don't like the looks of the B7. But thanks. [;)]

My brother's A3 is Ocean Blue, much more of a medium blue compared to the almost black Moro Blue.

[illusive45]

Santorin > Moro

That is all. hehe

Glad you're coming back to the Audi camp, Anth.

[Anthony]

I'm excited about it too, Frank. Love the GTI and all, but it feels like it's been forever. Need a new project. Working around them all day doesn't help much either... [:p]

[retrohasen]

Can't wait to see it. Welcome back[:D]


BTW, if you can switch from Sirius to XM, I would. I have XM in the Mini and it works perfectly(with the antenna on the dash), but the Sirius in the Audi constantly drops out. I think XM has a lot more repeater antennas around.

[MKGIY]

Nice job Anthony

Mike

[Anthony]

Damn Don, sweet new project. And the turbo...oh my!

[RE5PECT]

wait....you didnt get NAVI!? dam..your missin out man...haha other than that...gonna be a pimp car

(unless tech pkg includes Navi)

[A4TwoZeroT]

The S-Line comes with the paddle shift.. if thats what DSG means..
by the way.. nice choice.. cant wait to see your car!!
i couldnt wait.. i got the car the way i wanted.. but the 6MT.. oh.. and i got the shitty XM radio..
[drive]

[Anthony]

No, the A4 still uses the old Tiptronic automatic. It's not DSG. Both have the paddle shifter option though, but the underpinning transmission technology is much different.

[A4TwoZeroT]

oh ic ic.. hehe.. newbie here

[Anthony]

No worries, we were all noobs once. [:)]

[A4TwoZeroT]

[;)] [drive]

[Saturnine]

Should be coming any week now, eh Anth??

[:D]

Btw.. What in the heck is the REAR PARKTRONIC option??

[AudiGuy666]

It lets you know you're about to run over a little girl :p

[Anthony]

Hahaha...yeah. So you don't back up into shit. It was only a few hundred bucks so I thought "eh, why not".

And yep, it's scheduled to arrive in about two weeks! Woohoo!

?HOW DO I INSERT A PIX IN THIS MESSAGE ??

[Anthony]

Congrats on the order, you'll love it!

I'd love to check out your restaurant next time I'm up that way. I hope to be making lots of road trips in my new car, I'll definitely stop by and say hi! A drive and GTG up that way would be fun too. Be sure to post in the A3 Forum and the South West NorCal Forum too!

And to insert pics, you need to uplaod them to the web (like here: www.audizine.com/gallery) and then simply click the IMG button and paste the image path.
