Damn you!
Not only did you get your car first, but we live in basically the same neighborhood (so much for exclusivity), and have a nearly identical build as mine that's due to arrive in a few weeks! Enjoy! It looks awesome.
Identical to my spec down to the exterior and interior colors and options. Our cars will be twins. I think the only difference is that I ordered mine with the front license plate holder (regularly get tickets on my pcar for no front plate so I'm sick of it) and the alcantara headliner. Otherwise, identical. You have good taste

I noticed earlier that our order sheets were virtually identical. Once yours arrives we must get together for some group photos. If you'd like to see mine while you're waiting, send me a message and I'll meet you downtown...

Congratulations. Very awesome beast. Checked one out sitting at my local dealer today. Way more stunning in the flesh. Dealer asking $20K over MSRP.
Best of luck. Thanks for sharing the pics!

"Dealer asking $20K over MSRP"
Wow, my dealer didn't do that to me, and they gave me great trade-in value for my 2012 A7.........

yes, $20k mark-up is nuts... I didn't think there were still dealers that did that, at least outside of SoCal. I certainly wouldn't trust or give any business to dealers that did, no matter how badly I wanted a car.
Without asking for one, my dealer actually offered me a discount. They called me long after I placed the initial order to tell me that my RS7 qualified for a $1500 Audi loyalty discount, to be applied at delivery. I wasn't expecting a discount, but very cool to have a dealer that looks after my back as they've always done in the past. I'm sure it helps to have a buying history with them. You should've qualified for this discount too since you are a previous and current Audi owner. According to a bulletin sent by Audi to their dealer networks, all 2014 RS7 purchased by current Audi owners, qualify when purchased from now until 1/1/14.
Thanks for the offer to see your new beast. I'm very tempted but think I will respectfully pass so as to make my own delivery experience all the more satisfying Getting together for a photo shoot when I get my car sounds like a great idea though. Let's do it!

Looks like I missed the carbon optic package shortage. Ordered my car May 30th. Dealer just emailed the VIN. Car is built and is scheduled to be loaded on the ship November 12th for unloading in Halifax. Daytona grey pearl with carbon optics.
