WOW!! Buy a $40,000+ Audi and get 3 Months SIRIUS--FREE!!

Who is in charge of Audi advertising? How foolish to have in their TV ad that you get about $40 gift of 3 months of Sirius when purchasing a car that can range from 40K to 90+K?. Geez, MINI gave me 1 year.
I can't believe Audi thought that would hook a lot of buyers. Thanks for letting me share. Nick

It is funny, the VW products they sell come with 3yr 36k miles service but the Audi version did not. Pay more for less (plus LEDs of course).

For some reason my brand new MINI with the whole tech package with mini connected does NOT have Sirius! I have an apt at the dealer on Sat to look at this....since its supposed to come standard on ALL MINIS I would assume it should come with the $2750 add on!!

My wife's Camry XLE came with 3 free months of XM, I think it's a promotion from Sirius/XM and has nothing to do with the car manufacturer.

I don't think they are going to make it. Mind you, we have three aftermarket units on the family plan and I do like them "OK". But with more competition coming like the Pandora which I have for when I work outside in the yard/car, plus paying Howard Stern and others (not sure seemed like a whole lot, nothing against him personally but the millions and billions they paid seemed excessive) is just not a good business decision in my opinion.

The only reason I don't use Pandora in the car is because I would have to
fiddle with my phone and the battery runs down too quickly. But eventually
there will be a stand-alone device.
