Picked up my Ibis White 2016 Audi A7 TDI Prestige about a month ago, and have been enjoying ownership of this beautiful car.
Long story short, I had looked for this particular car for months in this color combo. As a plus, it's almost fully loaded except for night vision (to my knowledge).
Packages:
S-line
Black Optic Package
Driver Assistance Plus
Cold Weather Package
Comfort Seating Package (Individual Contour Seating w/ Black Valcona Leather)
20" 5-Spoke W-design High Gloss Black Finish Wheels
Bang & Olufsen Advanced Sound System
Soft Close Doors
Rear side airbags
Today, I took it into EuroFed in Atlanta to swap out the Black Optics grill (which looks great too) with the RS-style grill. I think it looks pretty solid and even more aggressive than before. For those curious, the crash bar was painted flat black with Rust-Oleum truck bed liner spray ordered from Amazon.
What I'm going to do next
I took advantage of the Labor Day sale and ordered the Ecode sway bars and end links, so I'm excited to get those installed, and also am looking to either vinyl wrap my mirror caps gloss black, or buy some CF caps. Ideally...someone would sell me their S7 black mirror caps [:)]
Then, next up would be the OEM flat bottom steering wheel.
I also have the Maxton Designs front lip...was going to install it today along with the grill, but backed out last minute and told the shop I wanted to think more. Any opinions on it?!
Overall, I consider myself lucky to have found such a loaded TDI A7 in this beautiful color combo! It had been meticulously maintained and was a one-owner vehicle.
For those that wonder why I'm into TDIs, I say it's because of the torque, which is really addictive. And, call me strange but something about the diesel clatter with the whine/spool of the turbo is music to my ears. The cherry on top is the 23mpg in the city and 35mpg on the highway that I average! For a 4000lb+ car, I'll take it!! [o_o]
