I'm going to buy a used A7. I have been looking for cars with the 19inch sport package but there are almost none in the colors I want( grey or silver). There are also lots of cars with 20 inch wheels but I don't want that. Does anyone regret getting the sport package? Is there any benefits to not getting the sport package?

The first A7 I test drove didn't have the sports package and it was so bad that it turned me off from the car all together. I felt like I was driving a boat. However, I was coming from a turned BMW 135i.

I'd recommend test driving both, but I wouldn't buy an A7 without the sports package.

I just luuuuv my A6 19" sport package with the included shift paddles. The lower look and improved handling vs ride compromise is right on the mark for me. I would imagine it would be very similar on the A7.

Get the color and trade the wheels with someone. It shouldn't be too hard to find someone who wants 20" OEM wheels. You could also buy the wheels of your choice and sell the 20's.

As long as you don't need to drive it all the time in the winter, there is absolutely no traction whatsoever even with a little snow, making the Quattro useless. Other than that, it's worth it!!!!

That would be a function of the tires though, not the sport package per se. If the sport pkg selected has summer tires, I'd agree. If with UHP all seasons, it's fine up to 4" of snow thereabouts. Snow performance is the same with or without the sport pkg - it's all in the tires.

When I was looking, Sports package was an essential in my checklist - purely for the looks.. I think it makes a big difference..

Depends on your age- if you feel over 60, the sport package is negligible

Snagitseven - right, should've been clear, it's the summer tires that I got with it
