Is Pearl White color suppose to be rare and extra charge from Audi? I wanted to upgrade my 97 to 99-2000 Pearl White but can't find any..

You mean like this:

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=158865177&dealer_id=69346&c ar_year=2000&search_type=used&make=AUDI&am p;model=A8&transmission=&distance=any& address=20901&advanced=y&max_mileage=75000 &max_price=&min_price=&end_year=2000&a mp;start_year=1999&drive=&engine=8CLDR&amp ;body_style=SEDAN&advcd_on=y&doors=4&f uel=GSL&color=WHITE&cardist=334

It was an extra charge color (so says my '97 brochure), and it is rare.

Didn't you just buy your car? Why would you want to upgrade?

I have 97 with 131k mi. I would like to see if I can get 99 or 2000. It seems newer has more options that I am lacking on 97. Heated seats, solar moonroof, better stereo system, and possibly less mileage.
I know A8 with 131k mile is not much, but if the price is not too severe, I would like to get newer Audi.

Default Go for the 2000 - just be aware that there is no "solar moonroof."

You either get a solar <b>sun</b>roof, which is not see-through, or a regular <b>moon</b>roof, which is.

Default how about my car

I've got a 1997 4.2 with only 67K miles and an aftermarket bumper to bumper with 2 1/2 years and over 30K miles left on it. Just did the timing belt and you would get the tip upgrade, wired for mp3, new brakes... the list goes on. Plus, I just want to get rid of it so I can buy a 2004 4.2 allroad I saw this weekend. call 215-753-0708. You'll find plenty of pictures on my picture poster.

That is the wonderful thing about AutoTrader.com , they allow you to really pinpoint your search. I happened to choose that one out of about 20 that popped up, and that was just searching within a 300 mile radius of my zip code.

Also, some pearlies pop up on eBay occasionally, but not often. I do not believe any are for sale there as of this writing.
