Default 2015 Delivery Times?

Recently put in an order on our local dealer's first allocation, and I am wondering when we should expect delivery? The dealer's computer doesn't give a production timeline for 2015's, just that the order is currently in pending status.

Thoughts/expectations?

Default Same here

I also put in an order on 4/17/14 for one of the first two slots for the dealer and recently got a production week (5/26/14). The dealer stated that it would probably be mid July to August for delivery to me. He also stated that he would keep me updated on each phase from order...thru production...to ultimately delivery to Dealer. So far just an estimate on total delivery time.

Based on recent years, first new model year arrivals to Northeast in early July. Add times to other ports and dealer locations .

Thanks, I just got our "accepted by factory" email yesterday, hopefully I'll be assigned a build time/week.

That's the week assigned for my Q5 build also. Let me know how yours progresses and I will do the same.

I just took delivery yesterday of my SQ5. It took two months.
The best thing you can do is to have your dealer modify an order that they already have in the pipeline. They can modify any order until it is released for production.

Absolutely loving my SQ5 and I can now vouch for the sunroof deletion. I drove both and only then does it become apparent how much weight is up there on the roof. The handling is noticeably better without that panoramic sunroof. I'll do some timing after the break-in period, but I'll bet the 0-60 is now 5.0 or better!

FYI measuring acceleration 0-60 mph is 5.1 on a car without a sunroof / towbar with 20" wheels

It was the first 2014 Q5 delivered in the US. It was actually at the Rhode Island port (I live in PA) on June 17th, but Audi wouldn't release it until 2014 pricing was announced as they didn't want people looking at the window sticker price until the official pricing announcement, and dealers were still unloading 2013 models.

Car and Driver got 5.2 seconds in their test of the SQ5. I don't know if it had the pano roof or not. Their test vehicle weighed 4427 pounds with 21" wheels.
