Sorry Guys just got home it was a late collection and Dealer was very thorough & professional then had a drive home.

so full write up with pics will be tomorrow but initial impressions are excellent.

Best way to describe is:
It looks mean as f#%*
it looks angry ! :)

A few controlled bursts and the power is ridiculous ha ha !
Sound is as the guys who’ve test driven one have commented and whilst not pre FL or FL levels, my god compared to my Merc it’s day & night ... perfect for me.
Sounds incredible outside & in.
So pleased with the sound as that was a BIG thing for me.

Fit & finish so far looks excellent.
Seats are mega love them.
Again VERY firm in the Merc but these are way more comfy but still supportive.

Lastly ... standard suspension !
I’ve not gone mag ride and the standard suspension is brilliant.
Way more supple than the Merc, soaks up bumps much better but it’s still firm - spot on.
So anybody ordered standard suspension rest assured its great.

more tomorrow guys but it’s a big thumbs up so far.

Ps: the carbon bits, black roof and Matt black alloys look ace. It looks so good from any angle.

chuffed to bits :icon thumright:

Nice one - glad it’s all arrived ok and so far so good.

Noise was a big thing for me on this so glad to hear that it will deliver on that front

Working tomorrow or got the day off to run it in…?!

Ordered a Vorsprung hatch briefly ... but then saw the carbon saloon and switched to that a few days later.

Thanks everyone - yeah I am VERY pleased with the colour / combination with the carbon.
I shone my phone light on the paint last night and the pearl fleck looks amazing so really happy with Daytona.
The black roof really suits the car too - I will get some better pics at the weekend.
The Dealer handover Bay had a huge lighted wall, so quite a bit of glare on the photos above.

Get it protected ASAP. A good Ceramic coat or PPF is a must

Well what was pencilled in for a morning collection ended up being 4pm so it was dark ***… but it’s here

My first Audi so lots to get used to but it’s a lovely place to be…

The sound was a surprise to me - for a brand new car with just 15miles on it, the cold start was rather fruity

It will be run in quickly so I can really hear the exhaust - the sounds is very promising. So far it’s exactly what I hoped for

Will be getting more pics but a couple of phone pics from the collection bay
