Default Buy 2015 SQ5 or Wait For 2016 SQ5?

I'm currently leasing a 2013 SQ5. My lease ends in Dec. I would prefer to buy my next car instead of leasing. I don't like the idea of buying a car that's near the end of its cycle. however, I saw some 2015 SQ5 shared prices by others in autopriceshare are good. Basically I'm deciding between two options. Buy 2015 SQ5 or Wait For 2016 SQ5. Assuming the next model is just as good as the current one and isn't significantly more expensive, what would you do?

From what I have been told, all of the S-varients will receive measurable horsepower an torque increases for 2016, even the A6 3.0 will get a 25hp boost. So, I would factor that into my considerations…

The 2016 order guide shows the SQ5 as 3.0 TFSI 354 HP.

Q5 2,0 = 220 HP, 3.0T = 272 HP and 3.0 TDI - 240 HP.


Also... the A6 3.0 TFSI for 2016 is 333 HP per the order guide.
