Just test drove the A3 2.0T DSG at Princeton Audi.. a few comments
The car is absolutely great! So great that I am willing to almost forget all about the A4 and buy the A3 instead.
I just ran into a few snags.
1) What's the deal with the Open Sky sunroof? does it not open fully in the front, in the brochore it looks as though it does. In person the glass was nowhere close to opening fully, had a good 4" still hanging.
2) They can't locate one the way I want in all of US so I'd have to settle on something else. No pricing yet for 2007 so I don't want to risk ordering one
A3 2.0T DSG
Ocean Blue Pearl
Sports package (w/ All seasons & Bi-color wheels)
Navigation/Bose
Open Sky
Convenience Package
Bluetooth/Sirus
---- (things to have but not necessary)
Bi-Xenon/Xenon
No way do I want the 3.2, love the turbo too much.
Any suggestions? Anyone spot one like this?

The sunroof stops opening at some point, but you let go of the button and press it again and it will open a little bit farther.

the sunroof has 3 settings: tap once to vent, tap again to open to "comfort" setting for wind noise,
hold "open" button to retract the rest of the way. even at that point it only opens about 90% becuase it retracts outside of the car, not into the roof where it would be able to fully open.

Does yours look like this? If so I am happy. The one at the dealership was a few inches off
