Basic S Line, standard on TDI Q5?
If you look at the configurator on audiusa.com, it appears that the basic S Line package (at least front and rear fascia and steering wheel) is standard on the TDI and 3.0T models.
I looked at some pics of 2014 TDI's in stock at local dealers and none of them seem to have the S Line features.
Anyone know what the deal is? I don't see an option to add anything but "S Line Plus" online.

None of the 2014 US 3.0 TDIs I have see at the dealerships have s-line bumpers. All the 3.0 TFSIs do.
Frustrating as heck since the only way to get the s-line bumpers on the 3.0 TDI is to order the s-line plus package which has the black optics and titanium wheels.
Sadly the configurator on AudiUSA.com has several glaring errors including not showing the S-line plus package as having black optics and showing the headliner as grey on the chestnut interior.

That's very unfortunate. I'm not a fan of the S Line Plus black trim or wheels. The TDI would look soooo good if it was as pictured on the audiusa.com site.

Don't believe what you see online, the configurator has all manner of problems. 3.0T comes with S-Line exterior, TDI does not. Only way to get the S-Line exterior with the TDI is to add the S-Line package, otherwise it looks the same as the 2.0T.

I completely agree. Audi got another $3,500 out of me for an s-line plus package that I probably could have done without - just couldn't live with a TDI with non s-line exterior. Love that look. I even changed my exterior color to better match the titanium/black accents. Would have rather had moonlight blue, but with titanium it would have been much too dark. Went with Glacier white instead - which is still a great color. If the TDI came with standard s-line exterior (like website shows!) then I probably would have opted to skip the s-line plus package. Maybe that is what Audi was banking on...
