That's great knowledge. Thank you so much. Hopefully my Q will get on a boat quickly and be here in that same kind of time frame. Maybe add some time for the tow hitch, but subtract time since I'm in Houston conveniently near the port . I'm doing all I can to not contact the saleperson nearly everyday haha. Mini does it right and provides a tracking site to follow the birth to delivery path of your new car. Saves the salesperson many calls

My salesman ended up being very helpful, but at first we had some communication problems. I think that once he understood my excitement for my Q5, he worked to make my experience more positive. I too wanted to know all the information and I think that paying what we had to pay for this car and waiting as long as we did to receive it, entitled us to a certain access to more information.

We tried to download them, but the file was too large; so we need to compress them on photoshop and we'll put them up tonight.

So looks like the 18" wheels are actually above the curb? I'm constantly scared of that given I've got curb scrapes multiple times on my Passat...shame I know...but I kinda sucked at that...

SWEET! Congratulations! It looks great.

I'm hoping to get mine this week, but it might be next week.

I JUST got the call from my dealer. My Q5 has arrived!

I'll be picking it up tomorrow morning. It's about time!
