Just found this club, My EOS 2.0t (Luxury Package, Parking Sensor, DSG)
Any other Seattle/Kitsap Area EOS owners?

That is really nice; It was your color or the black I got that I was torn between. I still don't know which one I like better. (I suppose I should say I like the black since that is the one I got!:rolleyes:

Love the pics, but what is the colour called? I have ordered in Leonnie blue, but have yet to see this colour in the metal. But your colour looks differant from what I have seen in other pics. Is this a US spec?

I will not have long to wait as I receive my Eos in exactly 2 weeks from today!!!

Hey there,
Mine is Island Grey with Anthracite Leather. It is US spec.
I wish we had the cool options for colored interior... (I want the red interior in mine)

Congrats on getting yours (soon!!) You're going to love it.

Cody

Thanks for the pic :-D I've yet to see a black one..
I've actually only seen one Other EOS on the road..

Your back seat driver blends in too well.

Hi Cody,

My Eos is the same color combo as yours. It's good to see that your visors and attached area are the same lighter color. I was wondering if mine had some leftover parts stuck in since that's the only area of the interior that's not dark! Are there any hilly areas in Seattle that you've driven? Have you experienced any rollback starting on a hill with the DSG?

Hey there,

Thanks, I like the car, i think it's one of the best color combos.
As far as roll back on hills, If I let off the brake on a hill it will roll back yes..
But then we've got some really steep hills here in Seattle.

Trick is to just give it gas as you let off the brakes.
:)

Thanks,
I love it, I just got my H&R Sport springs so I can lower it 1.2 inches.
Looking forward to having them installed this tuesday.
