Any news of West Coast shipping delays? Ship departure for my Q5 was listed as 10/12 and delivery port changed to nearby Benicia, California (Yay!).
The Audi departure port for the west coast is Lazaro Cardenas. That is at MOST a 4-5 day transit, and today (17 days) the arrival ETA officially goes late. No vehicle carriers from ANY port are expected for another week in Benicia and none from Lazaro Cardenas are scheduled for the next week.
Is Audi going back to rail delivery to San Diego or shifting delivery ports again? Anyone have news?

I am out of country in Feb so ideally looking to get mine around first week of March. Should I wait to put in the order? My SA recommends ordering in the first week of December. He said all delays have been addressed and production is now back on track.
Also, should I negotiate for extended warranty, paint protection etc right now or when I get my delivery?

I am ordering Q5 prestige with CWP, WWP, DAP, rear side airbags and audi rings. I am out of country in Feb so ideally would like to get mine around first week of March.

So I should get my car in first/second week of March
