Default 2016 Audi Q5 3.0T in Florett Silver w/Black Optics package

After debating with my wife, it's Florett Silver! Looks awesome with the Black Optics package!

I'll post more pics in the near future.

I have the Black Optics package, but truth be known I didn't know what it was before or during the shopping, ha. Your spec is nice. Are the front windows tinted in your pics?

The Black Optics package was a must for me; totally changes the character of the car!
My front windows are not tinted, the picture makes it look that way!

Definitely. My SQ5 is sepang blue and with its black optics the blue really stands out and I don't have shiny roof rails to make the 5 look taller. Got my windows tinted to match factory rear. Stealthy without being all gangster pimpy over the the top, ha. Enjoy your awesome vehicle.

Thanks! Already lovin' it It makes me wonder why on earth was I originally looking at a Q3 Prestige...

The Q5 looks better and drives WAY better! And the Q3 doesn't offer memory seats which is a problem for my wife and I's driving positions

I had a 2015 Q3 for 7 months. No offense to the vehicle or the owners, but it was the worst car I've ever owned. For many others' needs it's probably perfection. Audi did a great job making sure there was NO overlap between the Q3 and Q5.

That bad, huh?! I guess you're right about the overlap.

A little dramatic, I was! The way I had my Q3 spec and for my power hungry good handling needs it was severely lacking. But it was built well, light-colored leather, turn radius was good. I did not have a power lift gate, backup cam, it doesn't have seat memory and....you now what, I won't hijack your thread. Your car rocks. End of my discussion!
