Side assist is great for catching cars in your blind spot.

Yes, sorry I often use the US terminology when talking about CDN Premium and Standard trims...

As for the package - No NAV, No ADS, No camera.
That sucks, guess I had luckier timing, or negotiating skills (no offense at all) - I shopped 8 dealers in Western Canada (BC and Alberta) too, and that's what I got. Kelowna was even willing to fly me out there from Victoria and put me up in a hotel to pick up my car, plus a handsome discount... All offered guaranteed Audi (or Porsche as it's turned out lol) loaners. The hardest was Audicare

As far as the colors and trim, that's all personal taste, can't help you there.

Not sure about the packages anymore, what else don't you get when you don't take the nav and the camera?
Me too LTR, found no need for side assist, my neck works just fine. Same with the backup camera. Already had a TomTom, no need for Nav. Planning coils in the future, so no want for ADS. Sport-diff and leather's all I ordered, for my enjoyment and for the car's resale value :-)
