It does look great, still not sure on it though. I'm sticking to Floret with Black pack.
You do right
Floret & black pack is stunning !!!

With regards to the Pan roof - for those that have ordered - is it a "must" and is that because you have had it before or just something new you fancy?
I have changed my mind and decided on a Sportback now - outside thinking of White with black pack, possibly roof - no roof bars though. I like the blue and the Daytona grey, really like the Nardo in the sportback but don't think I want it long term for myself.
Going to stick with the standard wheels - save £695 + £400 in first years road tax and put that towards some different alloys - thinking Superleggera.
Decisions, decisions eh ...
Hello neg - I think the Pan roof makes a nice extra, it gives the option to brighten up the interior on dull days and reduces the amount of paint work to polish and seal, glass is much easier to keep clean......
I too was deciding between the blue and Daytona, the grey won out as it's much more discreet. we had the same dilemma with the RS Q3 and were happy with Daytona.
Good thinking with the wheels
Are you the same neg from VWROC? (chubby here )

A question about it, would you get red brakes with it or stick with the standard black ones? I think the black brakes would go with the silver and black theme but I have red ones now and they do stand out more and finish off the look with Mythos Black. It would be easier to tell if there were pictures of a Floret Silver RS3 Saloon.
Personally I don't think the car / colour / combo needs red brakes.
With the silver & black theme, the standard colour brake calipers look great and the RS logo just stands out enough to look cool.

Your car still looks stunning in Floret!
Tell you what, silver is never a colour that I'd like enough to order on any car.. but every time I see photos of yours, it looks absolutely outstanding! Floret certainly looks like a great colour, it's the darker shade that I love. I'm sure the car stands out a lot with that look, it looks uncommon.
Yeah that's what I was thinking too. Still annoying that there aren't any Floret RS3 Saloon pics, the config pics aren't as useful.

Hmm, any photoshop people that could make the standard wheels gloss black to see what they may look like?
Typically 2 weeks before the build week your order becomes confirmed meaning it won't move and you can't adjust your order. Mine is still showing as the 31st August and has now been confirmed, no more info on the tracker but you can confirm with Audi Live Chat the specific status. All being well I should get mine early to mid September - knowing Audi build dates I was expecting to wait a lot longer.
The RS virtual cockpit is VERY cool
I tried to add to add red calipers to my order and dealer has told me it's locked down and I cannot change it. Build is set for 14th August.
I would double check with Audi direct (live chat or customer service) whether your build week is confirmed or unconfirmed, usually a build week is not locked down until 2 weeks before production, you should be able to change it although it may move your build week. Its always worked that way for me.
I'm sure that I've seen VC with green and orange segments as you approach the red line.
Maybe just a VCDS tweak away.

Exactly the same with mine. I tried to add red calipers last week and dealer said it was locked. My build week is 7th August. Interested to know if you mange to add them without pushing the build week back.
I spoke to Audi this afternoon. First of all she said that Sales don't work weekends but she would ask a supervisor as I said how much I wanted the red brake's. She came back and said once the order is showing as received its locked in. I will probably try again on Monday and speak to sales at Audi to see what they say. Can only try!

You can't change it because months of planning goes into keeping these lines running, it's locked in because your parts will already be on a shelf with your VIN waiting to go together! There is a reason it can't be changed, because the parts already exist for your car.. otherwise they would have people changing bits the day before they start build. Then they would run out of parts for cars they have been allocated for, there is basically nil chance of it being changed I am afraid.
It's like ordering a kitchen, the. 2 days before the fit saying you want black doors instead of white when the kitchen fitter already has the white doors in the back of his van..........
No I get that, but the lock down usually takes place 2 weeks before the orders build week changes from unconfirmed to confirmed, not from the day you place the order !!

Yes would be good if anyone good with photoshop could show wheels in gloss black on nardo saloon(sedan) please as think will look good with black optic pack
You can also have the standard wheels diamond cut when you have them refurbished, so they can look identical anyway.
