    Audi Exclusive....

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Any one have an updated 2016/2017 Audi Exclusive paint chart or have the ability to get your hands on one?

    Also curious if the S3 has the option for Exclusive interior.
    when I ordered my current Merlin Purple they would not allow me to do interior exclusive options...

    Going to be ordering the RS3 or S5 Sport back when available and going exclusive on this guy as well.

    Thanks!

    According to Audi's site, the S3 has Exclusive Exterior only. Not sure what would be offered on the RS3 or S5 Sport Back. RS models tend to get both options for Exclusive Exterior and Interior.

    I'm generally not one to be on the e-code train because my last cars have been silver so it didn't bother me, but going with purple screams out the need to get rid of the ambers. Great color though and think many may be choosing it if they go down the exclusive path.

    Like the Concept A3 sedan car?

    It annoys me that AudiUSA made sure on launch year to limit the heck out of the A3 back in 2014.

    I would have replicated the heck out of the concept car. Piedmont Red exterior paint, white gray interior, as well as white gray dash board if these were all options. But alas, Audi doesn't even extend the interior Exclusive to the A3/S3 family.

    I understand they are two different companies, but if BMW can offer interior options for their 2 series. Why doesn't Audi offer something for the A3/S3 line...

    Trust me I agree, E-codes would have looked amazing on the Merlin. With the changing going on now and RS3 in the future, that will be one thing that wont be happening to this car unless things change in terms of RS3 pricing

    I had debated E-codes. the prices are staggering however. If the RS3 base starts into the high $50k low $60k I may re-tune my plan.

    Completely understand and agree. If find the improvement over DOT headlights with e-codes isn't as great as it used to be, and the asking price for them doesn't warrant the purchase for it compared to what one got say with the B6 S4 ecodes from B6 A4 xenon. Not only did it improve lighting, but the aesthetics were largely different rather than just amber delete (move to bi-xenon, non-chrome housing, mini-bulb drl). You used to get a lot more for your money in previous generations.

    With you about rs3, i was going to go look for a ghibli but probably wait till rs3. the pricing is going to suck on rs3 though . You and i have the same sources to find out why haha
