Yep, bought it at Prestige in Lakewood, CO. The photo is in my driveway, taken April 3; I live in the upper Arkansas Valley.

It definitely feels like RWD bias in corners and you can get it to oversteer a bit if you're really aggressive. The front wheels keep it balanced though.
Is that the same in all Q5s or specific to SQ5 and other S-models?

Went out today after the ice storm we had in Toronto. First shots of my new baby! . I wanted to give it a clean first, but it would have gotten so dirty before I got anywhere. All in all, I think it hides the dirt quite well!

All these pics do is make me miss home...I live in Tennessee now (US) and snow is just not something I see much of anymore.
