I hate Phil long so that is why I went up to Denver. Where was this picture taken? Spring is when we get out big snows!!!

Yep, bought it at Prestige in Lakewood, CO. The photo is in my driveway, taken April 3; I live in the upper Arkansas Valley.

It definitely feels like RWD bias in corners and you can get it to oversteer a bit if you're really aggressive. The front wheels keep it balanced though.

Is that the same in all Q5s or specific to SQ5 and other S-models?

Q5/SQ5 are the same drive train.

Went out today after the ice storm we had in Toronto. First shots of my new baby! :). I wanted to give it a clean first, but it would have gotten so dirty before I got anywhere. All in all, I think it hides the dirt quite well!

All these pics do is make me miss home...I live in Tennessee now (US) and snow is just not something I see much of anymore.
