Default Hello Fellow Audi Owners... my first!

I'm now two days into my brand new 2015, 3.0 Mythos Black, Sport Interior Package, B&O Q5. Can't stop sitting in it. My wife finally said tonight... "Honey, it's time to come inside."

I knew I'd be excited, but this is a bit ridiculous, isn't it?

Quick backstory: started my flirtation with an 2012 A5 cabriolet last fall at our local MN dealership, but couldn't make the decision as we didn't need a 3rd car at the time. Then in the spring, I drove a Q5 with the big moonroof and sensible practicality... and knew this was a great move for me. The power in the 3.0T confirmed it.

On Friday, my daughter and I boarded a train to Chicago, stayed the night at a local hotel, and a sales rep from Audi Exchange in Highland Pk, IL (highly recommended BTW, PM me for details if you want it)... picked us up in the morning to pick up our new Q5. So easy... I could have had it shipped to me, but this was perfect! (Well, perfect would have been in Germany... but this wasn't bad

We drove it home Saturday and I almost wanted to keep going all the way to the west coast, but alas, school beckoned for my daughter.

Anyway, excited to be part of the fun. Pix to follow of my daughter and our new 2015 black on black, sport/tech Mythos Q5!

Congrats on your new Q5. I love my SQ5. I've had it since November and I still go out to the garage to look at it. Most nights I still take a peek at it before going to bed. It is, by far, my most fav vehicle I've ever owned. Enjoy your new ride! :-)

Terrific vehicle. You will love it ... and maybe even pass it on to your daughter as a graduation present!

Congrats.

This was our first Audi as well and I understand your delight.

I only get to drive it on weekends (wife's car), but it always brings a smile to my face. Excellent machine.
