Great to see the order guide. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the ‘18 SQ5 since the only thing I’d have wanted was the phone charging, and the timing was right. SQ5 with prestige package, mythos black, black fine napa, cold weather, carbon atlas inlays, 20s all season. Traded in my low mileage ‘15 3.0T, which seems tame now compared with the grunt of the SQ5!

I was thinking I would be ordering Moonsoon Gray metallic on my 2019 SQ5 and now it is discontinued.
I've been Googling "Quantum Gray Metallic" and not getting many hits. There are some Q2 photos supposably with that color. Have to see this color in person but how? Does anyone have any recommendations of examples in Quantum Gray Metallic out in the wild of USA?

Interested to see how the MSRPs are going to change now that the navigation package and 19" wheels are standard on P+. One minor change I noticed is the "leatherette arm rest and center console" moved from Prestige to P+. The plastic arm rest and center console look cheap. The price of Prestige may not change much since the cost of Driver Assistant Package can be offset by losing the 20" wheels.
I don't care too much about the wireless charging since it tends to heat up the phone and I need to plug the phone in for Android Auto anyway. The power adjustable steering column is not very useful to me since I only adjust it once for the life of a car
I do wish I had the park assist. It can come in handy sometimes.

One more thing to consider... according to Audi Website "Google Earth features will not be available after December 2020 for Model Year 2018 & prior vehicles". I was reading in another threat that new google maps services & google assistant, etc. are not supported under current MY18 and older hardware, so looks like MY19 will have some sort of hardware update that will allow them to use new software.

you can spec one now, but there are no prices and I don't "think" they are accepting orders yet as far as assigning build weeks. I'll have to look as I have a bunch of 19's to now build in the next few days and have focused more on the new cars than the current gen

Great! So pricing is out now? I've been waiting for that before I could finalize my 2019 factory order.
