    Hi guys, Ive just placed an order for A3 Etron.


    Ive got a few days to finalise my extras so any thoughts / recommendations on these?:


    Cosmos blue OR Glacier white?
    Blue rally cloth seats
    comfort pack (B&O stereo, heated front seats, parking system plus)
    Virtual cockpit & flat steering wheel
    privacy glass
    park assist
    storage pack


    in two minds about roof rails - any recommendations?


    Cheers

    Was just searching "etron" when I came across this but you can have my opinion for free based on playing with the configurator some time ago.

    Roof rails complete a car in my view, but I need them to be in black - otherwise it limits my paint colour choice to white or silver. Even if I didn't use them they work aesthetically if collar and cuffs match - and you may find them useful one day.
    Privacy glass works well, especially on a white car.
    Park assist/Comfort pack. I can park easily, especially with sensors. Heated seats are good with leather but never wanted them with cloth. The blue will work with white btw. B&O probably great (I grew up with it), but wasted on my ears in a car environment.

    Don't like the default wheels but that's a very personal thing and the first thing I'd change unless I was mainly using some wheels from a previous car etc. e.g. to return car on originals without cost of replacement tyres.

    Enjoy it when it arrives. I see your previous ones and have the allroad and 205 (1.9) in common with you.
    MY2014 A6 allroad 245PS, my 8th Audi in 20 years - all quattros. 15th VAG car (incl 2 used ones).

    cheers Splash,
    I agree roof rails best in black on light cars also agree wheels for Etron are boring (Ill get some 2nd hand S3 wheels I think). I also agree heated seats not necessary in a car that you can pre-heat from your phone?! however B&O stereo supposed to be well worth it and I do like a nice stereo!

    ...more used to buying 2nd hand cars (this is a company car) hence struggling to make a decision!

    (the 205 is great fun on a track but otherwise it has to be german...pref Audi!)
