Was just going through the configurator for a 2012 S4 on the Audi USA site. I no longer see options for the leather interior or the Ti package. Is this an error?

I see the TI only available in the Prestige package....I dont see the leather in any of them though

Yeah...the configurator is messed up right now. Many people on this site have 2012s with leather and the price sheet the dealer gave me when I test drove had the nappa on the list.

Yeah that's what I figured. I also noticed the Nav package is $500 cheaper than last year.

Ti package is now available ONLY on the Prestige model; N/A on the Premium Plus.

That's because it doesn't include rear parking sensors or a rearview camera (available in the Parking Sensor package). Actually, even ordering the parking sensors doesn't give you the camera due to supply shortages. The hardware is installed, but it's missing a chip that will have to be added at a later date in order for it to be activated.

I talked to my SA and he said the camera comes with the nav package but not the sensors. I would still need to had the chip installed but if I did not order the sensors I would still have the camera and just would not have the sensors

Are you sure? I would have him check again if the camera is important to you. It wouldn't be the first time an SA was misinformed. Since the nav dropped in price over last year (almost unheard of in the auto industry) something had to be removed.
2011 nav package (including parking sensors and camera) $2550.
2012 nav $2000 + rear parking sensors $550. (camera ready when parts available)

Since nav doesn't require anything run to the rear trunk/bumper it seems more likely the camera wiring would only be installed if you got the parking sensors.

I could be wrong, I've only ever seen window stickers of 2012s that have both nav and parking sensors that say "rearview camera prep."

As gk1 said, it appears that your SA is misinformed based on the experiences of owners of early 2012s; several people who ordered nav but not backup sensors were surprised to learn that their car is not wired for the backup camera upon taking delivery.

1) No camera with Nav for the 2012, that's why it's $500 cheaper.
The camera goes with the Parking sensor. And you're getting the car without the camera, because there's a shortage and a wait list. They will plug-in the camera later when it arrives. They have no estimated time on the camera.

2) Leather is not available on the Audi website configurator, but it's available when you order - $1000 for the leather. However, I like the Black Alcantara when I saw it - they use Alcantara in the Maserati, Lambo, and some high end sports car.

3) I think the TI Package is available only with the Prestige. Not sure about that.
