Heh, as I am new to this forum, I am going to ask: I assume you want real pics of delivered cars—whenever that may be—not more configurator pics?

 

Welcome @drunkenspyder.

Yes, these color threads are ultimately for owners to share real world pictures of their e-tron GT.
Looking forward to seeing some of yours!

 

Thanks for those. Sounds like fun. And you are correct about the wheels.

 

Thanks for those. Sounds like fun. But those wheels, while perhaps not available in the U.K., are in fact available in the US on the non-RS version.

No problem and thanks, that's great information. The UK configurator at the minute only has the 20 inch options on the GT and 21's on the RS (have to say I do love the wheels on the demonstrator so if you're in the US, you're in luck in my opinion). Looking at the US configurator, they're very subtly different with bi-colour gray (also available on the UK RS version) whereas the examples on the 'Vorsprung' demo here are are black. Overall a very classy, halo car. Have to save the pennies here as a furloughed airline pilot but hopefully soon I'll be able to make the switch to EV.

 

Ha! You snagged my original incorrect content. [I had thought for sure those 21 wheels were available for the non-RS GT. I was wrong, and just didn’t correct myself quickly enough.]

From across the pound, Happy 4th of July, sometimes called Treason Day in the UK. 🤣

No worries at all , you're not wrong as I think they're available on the Prestige which I think you then have to spec the Performance package (not sure if this turns it into the RS or not as it seems to differ by region). The only difference I can see is that the black inserts aren't available over the water in the US. Good old Audi eh?

Would be nice to see one in Navarra Blue (my current B9 S4's colour which I love).

Happy 4th July, have a great day and all the very best from the UK

 

Mine's arrived

Well 1:18 scale

With the incorrect wheel choice, actually gone for the ones in the first images

Love it! Have you already posted where you got it?

 

Heres mine. Just got it today.

 

Beautiful! Mine will be basically identical - Daytona with the black pack, same wheels. I'm awaiting notice that it has arrived in Vancouver, and will be transported to Vancouver Island for delivery very soon. I expect in in the next 3 weeks after waiting almost 8 months1

 

Congratulations! Looks really nice...and 1:1 scale!

 

Good work, looking forward to the day

 

At local dealers today, for those in the UK dissapointed with the wheel choice on the base GT, these look great in the metal. I have ordered this exact colour / wheel and was worried about it being under wheeled but it's not. However I have gone for the body colored grille though.

I initially went for this exact spec, but changed my mind about the colour and went for Kemora grey instead. The Daytona looks stunning though!

 

Very nice! Have been in touch with Cambridge about this demonstrator. Lovely looking car!

 

My daytona gray version, that I now have for about 2 months! Still very happy with it

 

Made an appointment in two weeks to get the rims on my Daytona Grey GT powder coated gloss black. Debating on getting the calipers painted black or possibly red and open to suggestions (shop recommended silver for calipers). Saw another model Audi on another forum in Daytona Grey do this and looked pretty good. Also getting Ceramic Coating next week (free for AAA members, not sure if just through my dealer or all new Audis) and windows tinted. Will post pics once complete

 

My new RS, more photos incoming

 

Is the singleframe grill the same color as the body? post more pics!!

 

Congratulations. At last they start to arrive

 

Got mine back from the shop today, tinted windows, gloss black powder coated wheels and red calipers with audi rings in black

 

Those red calipers really pop with everything else being black or gray!

 

I agree, i like the color matching much better than a black grill on the daytona. Looking great!

 

Are your number plates stuck on? as can't see any screws or plastic bolts, if so, what with?

 

Yeah just stuck on with some (many just in case) number plate stickers

Wanted to share updated pics of my Daytona Grey as I have made some changes:
-Switched out Chrome for Black Badges and Rings
-Ghost Lowering Links
Next Up: XPEL Stealth PPF in a couple weeks
(pictures are from my local shop's IG page hence the captions, using as they are much higher qualify than I can take)

How much do the lowering links lower the car?

Also would be interested in the stealth PPF once done as I'm considering having this applied onto a mythos black GT.

 

No more than an inch I believe, the shop played around with it a bit to even it all out so not sure how much it lowered exactly. its subtle but gives it a more sporty and menacing look. Essentially it lowers all the levels of the air suspension slightly without impacting ride quality (other than watching for bumps in the road).

 

There is another thread for the eTron SUV lowering on these boards that goes into some really nice detail on how the GhostLinks work, including some tips on installing them yourself:

Lowered your e-tron?

Hi Folks, New to the e-tron world (still waiting for my new-member intro post to be "approved"), but wondering if anyone here has used the factory scan tool to lower the air-suspension settings? If so, how far have you lowered it, have any pictures, what's your experience with it since lowering...

If you want more control over the settings I saw some people purchased this:

Its more expensive but you can control the settings via app on your phone. I thought about this as you can remove all the air from the suspension for a slammed, show car look when parked but the lowering links were simpler and cheaper

 

FYi for the lowering links you do end up with some wheel gap. I had 15mm spacers installed today which helped, here is the before and after:
Before:

After:

 

Probably a obvious reason but why do you get gap when lowering and how much did you lower them by vs the stock links?

 

Pics from my dealer of my car that arrived today. Pick her up Monday.

Red leather looks really nice.

 

In the driveway today. Homelink now set up and she is charging in the garage. Knock on wood, but the MyAudi app seems to be just fine, and monitoring charging on it is very nice.

 

Also just got home. I’ll say the Daytona is beautiful I am so glad I went with Daytona. Still haven’t seen Kemora but I was worried I wouldn’t like it. I wanted black badges but honestly these work just fine. Look good with the wheels.
