Default First photos of my new A3! (Probably..)

On the way to drop a package off at UPS in Doraville, GA, I spotted a truckload of new Audis, parked near some motels (Jimmy Carter blvd area), about 5 miles from the dealer.

On the way back, I stopped by for a closer look to see of my A3, due in this week, might be on it.

I found a good match: Black, AWD (3.2), 20-spoke wheels. Given the rarity of the model it's likely that this one is mine.

It's a strange coincidence that this is the only one on the truck with the cover removed over the door, allowing me to see the color.

Because I sold my Volvo last week after the salesman said it would arrive then, (motorcycling on vacation for now), he offered to give me a ride to the train station for a 4-day trip I'm starting on Tuesday.
When I return on Friday, the car should be ready to pick up from the dealer, which is only about 1 mile from the station... (They'll also have time to get the windows tinted (35%)

"...the salesman offered to give me a ride to the train station for a 4-day trip I'm starting on Tuesday."

When you're at Chamblee MARTA, on the side where the busses pull through (Peachtree Road, not the parking lot side), look across the street at the warehouse condos there. The leftmost corner unit of the leftmost building (the building with '200' on it) is mine.


Now, if I just had a job in ATL so I could *live* there.... :-(

odd that the covering on the door would be taken off.

Wicked! How's that for first class service! Nice to see that Exclusive Audi Gift Wrap! Sealing in that essence of "NEW CAR" au de toilett. I've never seen that on UK deliveries, just a few bits of office paper stuck around the body, you get more paper/black plastic liner bins if your going to have a "TT", it seems. haha

You didn't pull it off accidentally on purpose, did you?
