Freight Damage

I have a question to everyone who took delivery of their S4.
Was there any freight damage to you car that was missed by the dealer?

on my old 2007 VW GTi I had train fallout all over it. This is common I heard on uncovered cars when shipped from Halifax to Vancouver via train. I believe the S4 is fully covered during transport.

Mine had a slight damage on the front bottom lip, it was more of an indent.
My dealer took a look and agreed to fix it no hassel.

No, I've had zero damage, I went over mine very carefully. I have seen pics of an RS4 which the driver of the transporter truck lowered the wrong ramp and smached the entire roof in from about the rear doors back though.
