Order came in early. Car content
They delivered this to me on Tuesday.
Order is several weeks early...I’ll take some decent pics soon. So far, very happy. Some of you may remember my thread on performance SUV's which was what I was initially looking for. This is very much like the S5 Cabrio I was driving, but honestly has some features the Audi did not. And...my golf clubs fit in the trunk with the top down. I ordered the upgraded AMG performance exhaust and love the sound. The seats are really comfortable and plenty of legroom for my 6'3" frame. No disrespect to Audi, but this is a nicer car that is quite a bit faster with better options for exactly the same money I paid for my S5 3 years ago.

Did it come with complimentary studded snow tires? Especially where you live!

I think it’s a C43

Either way, congrats!

Thanks guys ^^^Clark is correct, a C43 as it is the only AMG cabrio model with AWD which is a must in my region. Still cranks out 0-60 in low 4's and once I get my tuner to spend some time with her, should get sub <4 seconds easy.

LOL, no it came with lame summer racing tires...So far we have had no snow and I have no trips planned over the pass so hopefully I will make it to spring. If not, I will grab a set of tires. Even on a custom order, they would not let me change the tires to all season performance tires. Audi was the same way.
