Default 2011 s line sport disappointment

I picked up my 2011 Q7 TFSI Mugello blue s line sport on Saturday with the 333 HP engine option, but the dealer delivered the vehicle with the standard 20" 5 spoke all season wheels that come with the standard s line. The dealer claims the manufacturer of the wheels went out of business and the 21" wheels and performance summer tires are no longer available. I think someone screwed up.

They offered me $1000 back but I am not happy. I just paid $2600 tp buy winter wheels because the s line sport only came with performance summers. Anyone heard this before?

I heard from my local dealer that the 21" wheels are on backorder for 21 weeks. Makes sense with what you are saying.

Yep I think you got parkayed. May be a true story, but $1000 doesnt cover it. You need to see if the flares are installed like 98a said. Those pieces are over $3000 when ordered seperately thru dealer. About $1900 or so online.

What really? The sheet-metal is different or they are add-ons? I got 21's on both my 08 and '11 and only notice some differences in the trim.

I don't have any flares above the fenders and quarter panels either. Not only that, but my steering wheel is the 3 spoke s line but is missing the s line badging at the bottom of the steering wheel.
