Default Autobild- Q5 vs. A4 Avant ....here we go

the Q5 looks massive compared to the A4. The ride height looks good too, and the potential towing capacity will be used more than I planned.<ul><li><a href="http://www.autobild.de/artikel/test-audi-q5_a4-avant_715529.html">http://www.autobild.de/artikel/test-audi-q5_a4-avant_715529.html</a</li></ul>

It only looks massive from certain angles, The side by side they don't look that much different. I like them both, now can I wait until next year or September???

Default article says Oct 1 in Europe...

...USA rollout is still early 2009 supposedly, but only with the 3.2L engine.

optical illusion - the RX-300 looks bigger than a allroad but the opposite is true

Default Wide angle lens distorts the size difference. This is the best comparison pic

Whereas in this photo the size is distorted by the lens:
