May was another record breaking month for Audi, their 5th best in US history:

With them being as hot as they are, I'd say it's better than 2 to 1 SB's...

A 4 door will always outsell a 2 door. The more interesting comparison would be S4 vs. S5 SB. The S4 is a bit cheaper so it might have an edge.

Has the 2018 Q5 been released yet? If not, it's amazing that an archaic CUV is still Audi's best selling model.

The '18 Q5 is at the dealerships and is being delivered. There are quite a few Audiworld members that have taken delivery. After 8 months with my A4 I'm not surprised at the sales growth.

Look at the dramatic falloff in A7 sales. I'd say the A5 SB is eating away badly at the A7.

That's one of the reasons I wanted to see the breakout.

Yup, there's a couple of them in my neighborhood.
