Default Premium or Sport?

I have been reading a lot of threads comparing premium and sport package. Just on the basis of the 06's, who has what? My guess is 65/35 in favor of premium, but I just want to see what the A3 owners have picked as a whole. Feel free to post your favorite and least favorite part of your option after you vote.

I've been having the same dilemma. I drive the 07 with Premium package and it rode great. The salesman told me the Sport suspension had a much firmer ride, but handled better at higher speeds are harder driving. Since I was going to be driving on a lot of city streets, I went with the Premium package. I also liked the fact that the driver seat is power operated in the Premium package, but the seats were pretty comfy in the Sports model I only sat in.

For me, choosing between the two was simple... well, for me. Here's my reasoning.

The things I like from premium package are the following, Trip Computer, dimming mirror, HomeLink.

Things I didn't like. Seats not as supportive although very confortable. Power seats are sllloooowwww.

Granted, if I chose premium, I could swap out the suspension and make my own sport package but I couldn't justify sacrifing the wheels, high perf summer tires, additional aluminum accents, roof spolier, and sports seats just for trip computer, homelink, and dimming mirror.

After I got my A3 Sport, I installed the trip computer myself which gave me one item from the premium package. The dimming mirror I will do soon and the homelink has no value now since my apt has a detached garage.

As you can see my post is biased. I'm pro sport. Hopefully this insight helps

I'm sport (s-line)all the way!
I just got out of a Tahoe custom ride. Very bouncy even with dubs.
When it was time to purchase my next vehicle, I had to choose between the JCW (mini) and the Audi A3.
Well the rest is history I love the feel, feedback, and torque to name a few over the premie pkg.
Just my opinion.

I dont know work4somefood I think your a little off on your prediction, i think the sport s-line will dominate your poll.
Nice poll though!

Yeah I really am confused. I didn't think enough people had gotten the S-line as it is 2007 and most of us have 06's thus far.

I feel like...a minority
