I think the first pic is black s-line (grill, lower front and single color) and the second is lava in premium - just guessing.

Many thanks for the pics! I bet you had a great time.

Any more pics of the black s-line?

First impressions from driving the Q7?

Default They pushed us to abuse the Q7 in Safari.. read what I had seen..

Audi was telling us to use and abuse these fine works of art.

First they had us do full acceleration to about 80mph than slam on the breaks full on to test stability and ABS systems.

In the desert they deflated the tires to allow for sand dune action.. they had us dune bashing and having the V8 4.2 FSI in 1st and second gears revving the engine was a pleasure!

I have heard of a lot of critics saying that this is not a true off roader, they have no idea how well this SUV performs.

I was amazed at the decent control of the ESP off road program. You don't even have to touch the breaks!! It automatically glides the car down a steep hill!

Also the automatic differential lock was truly amazing in how well it worked. They demonstrated how with one front wheel in a ditch and the rear opposite tire about 3 feet in the air how the diff locked and stopped the wheel from spinning.

We also pushed it on the highways to 140mph and I have never felt more safe and secure with the Bose sound system playing in the background.

You can not loose with this SUV its truly a great machine. I think critics have to make up negative stuff as there is not much bad to say.
