I'm not a fan of leather or wood trim in a car.  However, if I had to have
wood trim I would want the matte wood that Audi uses in some of the
so-called 'Atmospheres'.  I don't understand why the car companies put so
much effort into making most wood look fake with the high gloss finishes.

Have you looked at it?  It really is nice.

PS.  The AC in the A4 really isn't that strong and I have heard reports of
it not being able to keep up on a hot day in cars with a dark interior.
