Your only travel responsibility is getting to the factory, and then getting from the port back to your country.
Ah, well that is very cool!

Default Some new photos

I just washed my Galaxy Blue Metallic, and took it down to the beach parking lot to try to capture the true color... again, it is very difficult to capture the color with a snapshot since it changes as you walk around the car... but this is pretty close to the real colors it shows. Bluer sky reflects more blue.

Here is the link to the photo shoot: https://www.audiworld.com/g/album/9038266

I like it.

It reminds me a bit of a color we had on a Honda Accord when I was a child - more than 30 years ago.

Default Just signed on one

Pulled the trigger on one of these this weekend.... super stoked. Upgrading from a 2016 Q5 2.0 PP in white/black.
Found a 3.0 Prestige Galaxy Blue w/Black interior and Titanium Optic Package. It's on a truck now. Will provide some pics in a few weeks.

When we were looking at one in the lot this weekend, trying to decide if we liked the color, it was grey and rainy out, and the color was not nearly as dazzling as we expected. It seems it's very dependent on the external light... which is cool.

I think it's love-or-hate with this color, which will probably make it unique. There aren't a ton of them in the US inventory, and a lot of them have that nougat brown interior, which my wife and I both loathe. Even fewer with the optic package. No S option in USA, although I'm very interested in getting red brakes and full black wheels on this thing if possible.

I took delivery of mine about a month ago... It really is hard to capture how beautiful the color is on camera!!! But I've tried with a few pics attached.

That's exactly what I have in my mind as to how it'll look in good sun... subtle, and very cool on closer inspection.

That color is definitely unique! I like it in the direct sunlight.
