Have you seen a fellow SB on the road?

[QUOTE=njspeedfreak;25011391]Not mine - but it's a mirror image. I'm still trying to convince myself that going with the 18" wheels was the right decision. I just sold my 2012 S4 with the 19" peelers and I loved the way they filled the wheel arches on the car even though I hated dealing with pothole damage. While I like the design of the 18's better than the 19" Cavo's, I really feel like the 18's don't visually fit the car size wise. They just aren't aggressive enough.
My situation is similar. Mine is on order with 18's. Originally, I thought I'd fit aftermarket 19's. (Florida car, so no snows.) However, after seeing a few photos with the stock 18's, and knowing that most S5 SBs have the Cavos, I'm thinking I may stick with the 18s.

Here in Toronto, I have seen very few...although my neighbour has one and got it back in May around the same time I did.
As well took a Motorcycle ride down to North Carolina on and off interstates and in over 3500 kms of riding I only saw one and I am not even sure if it was an A5 or S5.

It may be awhile before these are as ubiquitous as a Q5, if ever, which seems like a positive.
Here are the US sales figures, though you can see the spike corresponding to the Sportback release.

To this point I've only seen one other sportback in the wild... ended up parking my A5 SB right next to a mythos S5 SB in a shopping center a couple weeks back. We shared a chuckle about it as both of us were aware of how relatively rare the sportback is right now. That'll change soon I imagine.
