Heck I even keep the engine compartment detailed and looks better than when I picked it up. The 20's are lucky if they have 6000 miles on them as I have a dedicated set of winter tires and wheels. So yes I'm going to go with excellent condition.

And your also right about a 2012 Q5, little improvement. My 2009 actually has heated seats that work. My information center actually tells me what gear I'm in rather than just a D or S. I think IMO that the 2009 Sline wheels are the best looking so far and probably not to many around here that have them. And I don't have servotronic steering. So it's very hard for me to get excited about a new Q5. That's why a S4 might bring a little excitement back.

The closest dealer is 50 miles away and we've done a fair amount of business with them. If there not going to try and keep my business (still poor economy) I find it hard to believe that someone else will.

I can try and sell it myself and see what kind of market there is, or keep it, or try some other dealerships and there far and few between here.
