Default Got my 2012 monsoon s4 and love it

So I picked up my 2012 monsoon s4 last night. I ordered it fully loaded with titanium package, drive select and more. If anyone wants to see I can take pics and upload them.

Exactly! I think we are all jonesing for any look we can get. Anxious to see those Ti 19"s on Monsoon too. I passed on the package but a great photo might influence me.

What a tease! Did you even have to ask about whether we wanted photos? I have a Monsoon S4 Prestige (+ Titanium) arriving in about 6 weeks and I want to see all the photos I can get my hands on!

I didn't like the titanium wheels when I 1st saw them, but recently saw a 2011 and it looked pretty hot. I asked my dealer if too late to amend my order (due in 3 weeks) and he said too late and irrelevant as titanium not available on 2012s.

I'm gonna have to call BS on your dealer. He was probably concerned about having a disatisfied customer by telling you that it was unavailable. While it has been causing some delays because of supplies of the third party manufaturer that supplies the wheels, the package is available on the 12's.

In all fairness, I recieved this information from two seperate dealers, but my source isn't 100% credible either. So keep this in mind.

Looks great, congrats!

Darker than Quartz, but doesn't appear to be as dark as I originally thought. I like the color and it goes well with the titanium pkg.

2012 DSG - launch control still there? Still launching from a relatively conservative 3000-3500 rpm?

p.s. in Europe, what is the launch control level held at on the 2011 DSG cars? I wonder if it's more aggressive. The E60 M5 has a more conservative launch control level on the US cars vs. Euro cars. I wonder if Audi did the same.

p.s. here's mwarchut's car. Body colour mirror caps on 2012 Ti cars?
