B8 RS4 - perfect spec questions
Discussion
I'm looking for an RS4... but I would appreciate some help on what options are best suited to my needs.
So for context, I want a 2014/15 car with sub 20k miles. It will be a daily drive for the next 6/7/8 years doing 12k miles per annum including winter trips to the Alps. As such my focus is on comfort (e.g. preference for 19" rims) and simplicity (e.g. no DRC in case of reliability issues).
This leads me to the following ideal spec and some questions for those with experience:
Black or grey - which black is best?
Black optics pack
Standard sports seats, black leather.
Heated seats - I think this was an option rather than standard?
Standard 19inch rims - will I get snow chains on this these or is there a winter wheel option?
Standard suspension - how does this compare in comfort terms to the various modes on the DRC based sports suspension?
Sat Nav: is the sat nav upgrade a must?
Panoramic sun roof - is this worthwhile?
And perhaps most importantly, what must have options am I missing?
I'll probably buy from a main dealer, is this worth the premium for warranty etc?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
PS if anyone knows of a car for sale in this spec, please shout.

That will be a tough spec to find as most cars have the Sports Pack included because the option cost was at lot less than the value of the individual options. This includes
- 20" Alloys
- DRC
- Dynamic Steering
- Sports Exhaust
If I were in your shoes I'd buy a car with the sports pack but budget for a set of winter wheels.

Thanks Paulmon, this is a good option. - 20" Alloys

Adaptive cruise would be a must for me. Keyless entry would be nice
