Nice choice, congratulations!

I sort of tend to forget the Q5 exists given the plethora of GLC 300s and X3s in my area. I got a good friend of Mrs.Hire's into a white Progressiv back in the fall.

I like the colour, and those rims look good.
Congrats!

Congrats!  Nice car and great colour.

Looks like the are more hunkered down than they used to be. SUVs are getting closer to wagons every year.

I'm pleased this didn't turn into a "guess what I bought" thread.

So thanks for that and congrats!

So is this replacing the A4 or the Sorento?  Looks like a great vehicle and love that you bought it in an actual colour and optioned out the chrome trim.  Can't wait to see the show and shine, Congrats.

Replaces th A4. Will be keeping the Sorento for as long as our German Sheppard is around, we bought it because of the high roof line and room behind the seats. He's almost 12 so getting up there for GSD's

So he's chill with Koreans?  :P ;D

Congrats on the new ride and happy motoring! The optional wheels look sharper than stock IMO.

Nice, congrats!! I really like these & think they're sharp looking & drive fantastic.

Looked at these as well, just a bit too small for my needs, wish that wasn't the case.

Nice, Q5 still looks great. 
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.
