New in Van
Stumbled on these forums when digging for Canadian info on 2013 A4s.
My 2012 A4 was just totaled by a cement truck while parked on the street.
I can get into one of the last 2012s or jump into one of the first 2013s. Looking for some insights.
Looking forward to the conversations.

Re: New in Van
Woke up to a loud crash outside our window. Looked down and saw this:
Close up of the damage:
On the bright side, I am now shopping for a new A4.
need to decide between 2013 A4 base auto in grey, or potentially wait a few weeks longer and get the A4 premium in black.
Prefer grey, and the lower monthly payment, but premium might be worth it???

Re: New in Van
Hello Kevin,
I'm new here as well! I'm also from Vancouver! High five! I think I cried a bit as well when I saw the pictures. Don't worry though, any parts that can be salvaged and passed on will be sold by ICBC! All jokes aside, I think you should get the 2012 A4. It's closer to the end of the season, so they may just have a better deal for you. I personally do not like the single strip LED DRLs on the 2013 A4s. The interior is a bit better though, so I guess it's more of what you really want. Check out the list of standard features and price before you make your decision. As for the navigation package, I think it's worth it. The MMI control buttons are not placed on the radio stack. Instead, they are placed behind the gear shift lever, which just looks better (more luxurious) and just works. Let us know what you decide!
