    This is great news I was looking forward to changing the steering wheel to a flat bottom but now that it’s going to be standard that is awesome

    Hi,
    Were you able to find out what the “Leather Package “ entails of for the RS design package?

    Ah I wish I had the flat bottom steering wheel. So expensive to replace the rounded steering wheel.

    I have not. I think we'll be seeing 2022s show up any day now once the launch hold is released

    I think it’s the executive package.

    Seems like they should give you a discount if you’re buying both the RS design package & executive package since they both upgrade dash/console/door panels to leather

    I’m sure it’s one of those options where they charge for the wheel and shifter but at the same time require you to order the executive package to get them.

    I had Ultra Blue, albeit on a different model. I really loved it, but I also love blue cars. It's quite close to Sepang Blue. I personally think it's going to be the best non A.E. color for the RS6, and is superior to Navarra, but you need to have an appetite for blue.

    Ultra seems like a cobalt blue to me, very saturated and almost purple in some light. It was a little too conspicuous for what I want in this car, and I was able to get Navarra approved on a MY22 through AE. Sucks paying up for it this year, but it is what I wanted

    My order is in Ultra Blue. Can't wait. Love the color based on the pictures and videos that I have seen - I am a big fan of Sepang and this one seems to be similar.

    Mine is coming in Ultra Blue as well. I was also eye-ing an AE in either Ara or Sepang, as Navarra was a little to dark for my taste. I currently have a Sprint Blue RS4, and I wanted something a bit darker and vibrant, so I'm really glad that Ultra Blue came out this MY as it fit the exact color profile I was looking for!

    Anyone else annoyed that there is only one leather color option for the Contour Seat package? C'mon Audi, give us cognac too!

    Yeah that was a bummer. Black is ok but they could have punched it up. At least contrast stitching.

    Also no red leather in an Audi is a bit of a shame.

    Any way to order black optics but keep 21” wheels?

    Has anyone had success trying to do this? I really would like the black optics but don’t want the 22” wheels
