I voted for Scuba Blue but would really like to see this color in person. Ibis is nice but I prefer some of Audi's other colors. Be different vs. the standard white, black and gray.

Scuba blue hands down. White gets tired quickly, and from the pics that blue looks WAY more exciting and is WAY more unique. No competition.

Mine may not be prettier than Scuba Blue, but I do enjoy the uniqueness nonetheless. Even though traditionally black, white, and different shades of grey are always classy and foolproof (easier) when it comes time to sell.
Enjoy! You'll love yours as much I do mine, even after almost 3 years now.

Scuba Blue without question. The Q5 wears colors well. It's too bad Audi has been reluctant to give them to us. Has Volcano Red been confirmed, too? I love that color as well.

So two whites, two blacks, four grays/silvers, two blues (one of which is more like blue tinted gray), and a brown. Not exactly a full spectrum color palette, eh?

Volcano red for those who haven't seen it . . .

I had a 1986 4000S in volcano red. Loved that color on that car.

I've now seen the order guide for the 2013 3.0T Q5 for Canada, and Volcano Red is indeed a colour choice.

Can you share any other details as to what Audi Canada has included in the Q5 3.0T order guide?
