After literally 6 months of waiting (ordered in the beginning of May), I picked up my Daytona Grey with High Gloss Black package SQ5 from the dealer last week.

Additional specs: Lunar silver Napa, 21" wheels, B&O, Carbon Atlas trim, side assist, pano.

Unfortunately Ive been having a hell of a time getting good pics in the garage to garage environment I frequent. Snow tires and wheels are going on tomorrow, though i should be able to get good pics next week when I get XPEL done.

I'm absolutely smitten - the color is amazing in person - absolutely the gunmetal look I was after- and I'm very very glad I waited for the HGB. I think it gives the ride an added bit of aggressiveness. Nothing but raves from everyone whose seen it so far.

Love the sound, the interior, and the midrange acceleration. I will almost certainly be going GIAC after my 5k.









Carbon fiber supercharged badges going on tomorrow with the snows.

Congratulations! I totally understand the "smitten" comment as that is the way I still feel about my SQ5 - one year & 15k miles later. Enjoy your new ride! :-)

Amazing! Congrats.

Thank you! Your dealer can order them..though this way is cheaper:
4F0853601 - "Supercharged" Badge - Carbon Fiber - Priced Each - ES#391497

I ordered the supercharged badges with the car with an understanding that should they not be the carbon fiber ones the dealer would swap em out free of charge which is whats happening.

You know that will almost certainly void your factory warranty, yes? Audi now tracks these mods, has since 2011 or thereabouts.

Just thought you'd like to know.

Very nice looking car, congratulations, I ordered the same interior specs in moonlight blue, looking forward to receive mine

Thanks- Im well aware of the infamous TD1. It may be worth it to me to pay $100 or w/e to reflash back to stock before the infrequent services.
