    Regrets?

    Very, very close to sign an order for a RS4 Avant....

    A question for you people that has got the new RS4;

    do you regret an option you took (e.g. Buckets, SS+ etc) or didnt take?!

    No regrets here , Buckets perfect for me , SS+ is a must . The only thing that I would like to put on my car was Ceramik Brakes but when I ordered the car it was not an option .
    When you have eliminated the impossible , whatever remains , however improbable , must be the truth.

    No regrets from me as well! I did not put SS+ as is far too low for the use I have of the car. I just love every bit of m baby!

    No regrets (or maybe one) I should have deleted the sunroof... never used it and it's misplaced weight.

    Everything else (included in the premium package) was worth it.

    Cheers

    Would you consider special paint? Maybe around €2000-2500 extra but you get an uniqe car.

    You will probably only regret the options you DIDN'T buy...

    Is there really nobody that regrets the SS+ or the sunroof?!

    Almost all the swedish carmagazines thinks that the SS+ is unsuitable for swedish roads and that it is a waste of money if you dont intend to take the car to the track once in a while!

    As I told already, I do regret taking the sunroof. It's unneeded weight and worst it's really baddly placed. But that's really the only thing I would remove.

    How much weight do you save by NOT getting the sunroof?

    I'm no expert but my saleman told me anything between 30 and 50 pounds. Maybe some of the experts on the board can confirm that.

    i rceveived mine in audi exclusive colour inside and outside. its worth it. its unique.
    however the ss+ is a must.
    thinking about saving weight on this car is creditably, but in the end its no real sports car, and for this get focused to get the car balanced for your individual purpose...

    Dont'get me wrong, I was only telling that if I had one regret it would be this one. For three main reasons:
    1) I'm not using it
    2) It's unecessary weight
    3) I can't easily fit in the car with my helmet because of the sunroof.

    So do I regret taking it and is it worth sharing with others: Yes!

    So if you don't plan on using the sunroof don't get it, it's as simple as that!

    Cheers

    OK, now I need to know what the "ROW" is? Is there a thread that explains acronyms used here (grin)?
