Apologies if this is covered in another thread, but I couldn't find one. Any idea when the order book opens for 2019?

Seems like in the past its often been late April, with deliveries in July/August, but I haven't seen anything yet. Looking to replace our rapidly disintergrating GTI with a 2019 Q5.

Here's what Donlen shows...Q5---Order Date May 2018; Acceptance Date June 2018; Production Start 8/27/18

Dealer yesterday told me that the 2019 Order Guide is probably not available to them until about 30-45 days. This was just a guess on their part it seemed. No info has been received by the dealer yet.

They released an updated 2018 order guide yesterday. Still nothing on the 2019s.

? I thought the order book had closed for 2018.

For most models it has. Allocation should be out tomorrow though and we'll know for sure.

Well, we are still ordering 2018s. Should see the 2019 order guide by next month.

do you have the latest update posted?

Two questions:

How does ordering guide works? Assuming Acceptance Date is June 2018 for a 2019 Q5 - does that mean the 2019 Q5 will be announced before that? Does the ordering guide details all the specs and options?

Typically, can you negotiate the MSRP when you pre-order a new year model (2019)?
