Very brutal! Tinting 3M ceramic for the driver/passenger front windows at 40% is scheduled for this Friday. Clearbra the full front, mirrors, a-pillar, and strip above the front windshield for $1600. Also G-Teqnique ceramic clear coat over the whole car and wheels. This is scheduled for next Monday morning until Wednesday. The only issue is I have to drive a few 100 miles to drop it off. Worth it though IMO. Thanks.

Me too! Thanks I will certainly post in a new thread some pictures and all. Initial pictures from my SA with the High Gloss Gray inlay and Nougat Brown already looks ultra sweet!

Yeah I was warned not to enjoy my car too much over the weekend. That might be tougher than having to wait for it! It’s like getting a super sweet toy and all you can do is look at it. Great opportunity to play with the Vag Com I suppose.

Thank you all for the kind words and especially sharing your experiences that honestly has been the only thing that has kept me sane and patient.

Congratulations! Thank you for the great information during your agonizing wait. Glad that you can take final possession soon.

Congrats! I know it has been a long time coming for you. I now have 1200 miles on mine and love everything about it so far. I was worried about moving from a Highlander to the Q5 as far as size goes but it does not feel small at all since it has power and is so quiet inside (well as quiet as it can be over the B/O sound system blaring something) Enjoy!

Thanks all! ...and your welcome for sharing. I figure others have shared to help keep my sanity in check and therefore it's good to give back too.

Wow, Congratulations. I am glad to hear it finally came in. I could not believe how long you had to wait for it to get here. I can't wait to see the pictures after all the protection is applied.

Mine disappeared from the dealer website today. So that's a promising sign, correct? Eta as of last week has been 10/24-10/30.
