So after a couple of weeks of deliberating about an M3 or C63, I have decided to take the plunge and order a C63 Estate. The colour will be Tenorite Grey with the optional 5 spoke 18's as I think they will match T.Grey well. The thing I'm not sure about is the interior colour, was thinking...

My boss ordered a new Passatt CC 18 weeks ago but is still waiting to take delivery. You might not think this is such a big deal, but it's not a build or shipping issue - the car has been in the UK for 3 weeks but due to VW installing a 'new computer system' they don't know where it is, or...
