Q5 Order Timeline
So we ordered a Q5 on May 29, 2017 and I found out today that the order is frozen, but not scheduled for production until week 38, which is Sept 24th or so. And the Port is listed as Jacksonville, Fl as we are in North Carolina. I'm very surprised that the production date is 4 months after the order date. My S4 order, done at the same time, is scheduled for production 6 weeks after the order. Why is the Q5 taking 4 months to go to production? Anyone else had a similar experience?

Sounds correct based on what I've seen in this forum. I have an order date of 5/8, with a potential build of 8/11.
I suspect there are a lot of Q5 custom orders, more than Audi planned for. I also suspect this is because of the basic models they sent to dealers. For example, my dealer in SoCal didn't receive a single Prestige, and for the price Audi demands, I want exactly what I want, not compromising on features.

One time I ordered a car from a Mazda dealer. However he never actually ordered the car. Instead, he was trying to find one out there and work a trade. I finally told him to produce proof of the order--he couldn't--so I cancelled the order and went to a different dealer.
The Audi dealers can pull the order info from the system and send it to you. I have two pending orders--Q5 and and S4 from two different dealers in my general area. Both of them give me the same info from the Audi system.
