    Any info on 2011?

    I am considering the trade up to the v10 and apparently there are only slots now for upcoming 2011 MY. Anyone seen the order guide for '11? Are there going to be any changes in options etc? I heard Lava Grey may be available...

    Lava Grey is available on the 2010, with Quartz Grey sideblades standard.

    I am getting a late-build 2010 (week of May 16) and was worried there might be significant changes for 2011. I've been told there are no significant changes for the coupe, with the big 2011 news being the release of the spyder.

    The GT will be out too! Limited to 350 worldwide - carbon mostly everything (including a big rear diffuser) to reduce weight, still with all the toys and a V10 delivering 560BHP.

    I've got an order guide for 2011 sitting in front of me, but it is for the V10 Spyder. Lava Gray pearl effect is available (for an extra charge).
    Your dealer should be able to shoot you an order guide, as mine did.

    Interesting. My week 18 May build will be a 2010, and your week 22 May/June build is a 2011. Dang. Do all the models switch at the same time or are the Spyders all 2011 models even if built in Q2?

    You can get Lava Grey, Suzuka Grey, Santoro Grey, Titanium Grey... heck, you could probably get Earl Grey, Erin Grey and even Gandalf the Grey!

    When I specced out my V8, I worked closely with the AE people. I was told they could have my car painted any color they had in the Audi Palette, any existing car color from another manufacturer and they'd even do their best to match any color I could give them.

    There is an extra charge for all the pearl effect colors, even if the color is one of the standard offerings.

    In 2010 Lava Grey is one of the standard offerings (at least in the U.S., where it shows on the AudiUSA website "build your own" feature), with the $650 upcharge for pearl effect.

    While one can get any other Audi color, as well as custom colors, on the car, I believe they are under the Audi Exclusive program, which is $2500 extra plus a considerable additional wait time for the car.

    Sounds awesome, are you sure about only being 350?
