Default Just took delivery of custom Q5!

Hey all. Super excited... just picked up my car today (I know it's blasphemy to not post pictures, but I promise I will in a few days when I get back to my hometown). Anyway, my car is:

2009 Q5 3.2
Prestige
S-Line
DAYTONA GRAY (absolutely gorgeous) exterior special order
Side Assist
Drive Select

Love it! Only minor gripe is I wish they had put the Audi Music Interface in the center armrest rather than in the glovebox... (pain in the butt to open my glove compartment everytime I get a SMS or e-mail message to check it). By the way, anyone debating the S-Line... definitely get it! the 20" wheels and aggressive front alone are worth it... plus love the S-Line steering wheel.

Pics to follow...

Solution to your AMI issue - get a dedicated iPod for your car. It's really nice to not have to take it out all the time. You can get a nano for $150, so it's not too expensive.

Thanks, guys!
I make one mistake back in 93 to skip on mud flaps on my nissan.
Every time I washed that car - my hart was bleeding. One time my wife drive over white paint, another time over fresh asphalt. All this was on the bottom part of that car.
Never again I skip on mud guards.

nah mine didn't come with mud flaps either. although it did come with the roof rack thing (which my dealer didn't install for me). i kinda like it without the racks... i will hopefully take pics tomorrow of the car since it's been nothing but rain down here in SE this past weekend.

by the way, does anyone have the front license plate holder? I had mine installed from factory... and it's on the front bumper... but i think it's missing something. it has 2 large holes in the black outline but screws can't screw on securely through them... is there some part i'm missing? I noticed my rear plate holder has another piece it seems that allow screws to be screwed on...
