Default Our 2014 Q5 TDI - May ED Planning

We placed the order and now have our confirmed commission number for our 2014 Q5 TDI Premium Plus, Cuvée Silver over Pistachio Beige, Walnut Brown Inlays, MMI Nav, & B&O Sound.

Planning for an early May pickup and we'll be in country for 17+/- 2 days as the plans firm up.
  • Ingolstadt to Konstanz via Fussen (Photo @ Neuschwanstein Castle)
  • Konstanz to Badenweiler (5 days of Spa heaven)
  • Badenweiler to Deudesfeld in the Eifel (4 days @ wifes relatives) - Somehow a lap of the Ring in the Q5 just doesn't seem right. Been there done that in the Z4 four years ago. But it is open for Tourists 3 out of 4 days were in the Eifel.
  • Deudesfeld to Rothenburg ob Tauber (3 Days, explore lower Bavaria)
  • Rothenburg ob Tauber to Munchen - Drop off Q5 at Munchen
  • Enjoy 3 Days in Munchen & Fly Home
More updates to follow as we move along into the build process.

We received our Eurpoean Delivery Welcome Package from Audi today. Audi is most definetly up on BMW for the welcome package contents.
  1. Audi Logo Luggage Name Tag
  2. Audi Logo Leather Trip Diary
  3. Audi Logo Carbon Fibre Pen
  4. Audi Logo Coffe Cup
  5. Audi Silk Scarf - the wifes favorite
  6. Most importantly the paperwork with our requested delivery date of 9 May (not confirmed until production complete) .
  7. Scheduled "Begin Production" the week of 31 March.
So that should easily put production complete by 11 April.

Anticipation anxiety begins!

Congrats and happy planning for your ED trip.

If you need ideas for a location for your photo at Neuschwanstein Castle, take a look at the suggested location from Bimmerfest, http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=299657.

I went there and thought the spot was pretty good.
