    Audi Drive Select

    Do all B8 A4s come with Audi Drive Select? If not, which ones do? I looked at the options on the Audi website for A4s and didn't see 'Drive Select' as an option.

    no B8 A4's come with drive select standard. it is available option for any trim level. when you build your A4 on the audi site it's one of the options. i think it's 2-3 grand.

    and it is awesome! i drove one with it the other day and was very impressed.

    For some reason, I was under the impression Drive Select only came on the Prestige (as an option)...I'll have to check that out again.

    Re: Audi Drive Select

    is it really? i thought i was in a premium plus when i drove it... would make more sense to only be for prestige though. my bad.

    Re: Audi Drive Select

    i don't have it and i'm still impressed with the handling! have those who drove the b8 with drive select driven one without? i never have and there weren't any red ones in new england at the time i was looking for my car. i was dead sure of getting a red a4, prestige and whatever option came was fine. i really wanted the s-line but i couldn't wait that long.

    cheers... rocco

    Re: Audi Drive Select

    i drove one without drive select as well. it was a very very comfortable and smooth ride. it was not sporty at all though (opinion). although, i'm used to driving my b7 which has coilovers and prior to that had the stock sport suspension. personally i would have to get sport suspension or drive select for a b8, but either way it's gonna make ya feel real happy.

    Re: Audi Drive Select

    Looking at the suspension height on the new A4's, I wonder how complicated lowering will be with the Drive Select.

    Re: Audi Drive Select

    yeah, i'm wondering that too. maybe only be able to replace springs? not totally brushed up on my drive select inner workings yet.
