LOL...... Like a new father awaiting the birth of his first child.

The car looks great, and I really love the wheels!!

A member of ours on the Golden Horseshoe Club has the only other red Avant that I know of.

Congrats.!!!

Wow, I didn't know Leons Furniture sold Audi's too! My Avant won't be here until late December. I have my new winter tires/wheels sitting in the garage waiting.

Looks very nice in red!

My set of B8 '09 10 spoke 17" Wheels and Yokohama W-Drive 245/45 R17 winter tires are at the dealers ready to be installed before pick-up.

As a side note, my Dealer is now offering seasonal storage for wheel/tires. Now there's no hassle of storing them in my garage and then trucking them to and fro each year.

Congrats! Nice to see the wrapping on the vehicle during transport. Is Audi the only manufacturer has their cars all wrapped during transport?

How much are they charging you for storage?

That's awesome, congrats on the avant and thanks for the pics. I too am in Winnipeg and am anxiously waiting my A3 sport. It is scheduled to arrive this Friday.

How come you have to wait two more days after delivery to take ownership? Will I have to wait past Friday as well?

As far as I know, it's $75 per season. Other Dealers in town (Ford for example) are charging $60 per season. I think it's worth it.

Your A3 was probably on the same transporter and arrived yesterday. Check with SJ Audi for delivery. Looks like an A3 on the bottom rack. Yours?

The new cars then go through the Dealer prepping and PDI plus, I am getting a tint installed.

Who is your Rep at SJ?

Ah, ok thanks for the info.

My rep is Dan... really nice guy, I am glad I dealt with him.

UPDATE: I actually received a call from him today, and you were correct... it was on the same shipment. Looks like I only have 1 more sleep as well!

Hey, so how do you like your avant thus far?

I think I saw you there today when I picked up my A3... were you in an S-Line jacket?

Btw, congrats on the car... that color really looks great on the avant.
