Most factory First Aid kits that come with cars aren't much...
best to buy one from an online source like "medichest.com" or "masune.com" and use that. I have a soft pack FA kit in all my cars and the first thing I do is toss the cheapo plastic strips and refill with Band-Aid brand flexible fabric. I also add a pack of butterfly strips and some steri-strips. Only needed them(steri-strips) once but they really came in real handy. And what was that about a back-up camera? Did I miss something?

Actually Audi is not too bad when it comes to nickel and diming you to death. BMW and MB doesnt even come with leather and wood.

also the auto switch should be to the left of the off position. you shouldn't have to cycle through auto to get to parking or low beams. and a power tilt and telescope steering would be nice. along with moving the gear shifter manual mode so you pull left to engage it along with tapping it over for s mode.

another thing that could have been better designed : if you are not tall and/or have short legs, the seatbelts return too far between the B-post and the seats, and you had to twist yourself in order to catch them again. Seatbelts that are attached to the upper part of the seat (as in coupés and convertibles) are much more comfortable

Hello BayGM
The Q5 is available Climate-controlled comfort seats (option code: PS8); I believe that if you were to custom build your Q5 and willing to wait 3 months for delivery, this option should be available also in USA. By the way...I have this option in my Q5...and (now that everything is working perfectly) it's great! Even when the car has been sitting in the sun for many hours, once you enter the car and turn on the seat ventilation, seats take less than 30 seconds to cool off completely.
I totally agree...!
