Ordered in mid-May 2014, took ownership at the end of August. 3.5 months, but I'm on the west coast, so delivery took a little longer.
Definitely a hot color, especially with the black optic package. I'm in the market and specifically looking for this color; hard to come by on the used market :-/

I searched for a few weeks for a used S5 with all the options I wanted, but couldn't find one. I was looking at inventory for the entire state of California and later expanded the search to surrounding states. I finally gave up and ordered the beast just the way I wanted it. It was a painfully long wait for arrival, but worth it! I love this car.

Good luck!

I was in the same boat. I searched for couple weeks for sepang one with options i wanted but could not find one so just ordered one way i wanted. I am currently in week 6 of waiting and it has been a long 6 weeks lol. Also finding a used sepang s5 is rare cause up until last year that body color was an extra 4 grand which most people did not go for as opposed to now where its only 500 more. But congrats man, throw some pictures this way when you can!

Has 2014 S5 cabriolet, glacier white, Prestige package, black/red nappa leather, B&O. The car was born with factory installed Michelin tires. Averaged 20-21 mpg. Great ride but the tires needed replacing after only 15K miles. Now running Continental Contisport. Now averaging mid 20s mpg and as much as low 30s highway. Anyone had similar experiences or comment. Thanks.

I've had my 2016 S5 Prestige about a month and just noticed that it does NOT have side assist, but it's listed on the sticker for the car. Do any other 2016 S5's NOT have side assist that are supposed to have it?

All 2016s prestige should have side assist since it is included with the technology package. Just checked the order guide. I would def take it to them since you paid for it.
