have you noticed how no matter how long the title of a song is, it shows on the display that's between the gauges? Not even my iPod displays the whole title of a song as it has limited number of characters.

the little led lights where the passenger feet rest?

how the center console can be adjusted so you can rest your arm more comfortably?

how the car warns you that it is locked: chirp vs. loud honking horn.

how quiet it is?

the little amber LED on the side mirrors that let you know (and other driver's behind you) that you are signaling a turn.

this is an amazing piece of machinery...

Do you have nav? If you are using voice activation, you can say "I'm hungry" for closest restaurants, "I need gas" for closest gas stations, etc. You get the point. I love this car too. Amazing is the perfect word to describe it.

I think we need to stress the positives. Sometimes forums can become a venting vehicle and may give those on the sidelines the idea that the car is nothing but trouble. You will always get a dud in the bunch, but, yes, it is an amazing vehicle.

I can always tell when I like a car a lot...this one should be a keeper. I find myself getting bored with cars quite often and committing financial suicide by buying a new one after 1.5-2.5 years of ownership. Does not make sense, but I sometimes cannot resist the temptation. After 1.5 months, I haven't found myself 'wondering'...

Try "I need cash" - that should show list of banks that not declare bankruptcy yet.

I'm not sure I can repeat what a biz associate told me about the Q5 and all the things it can do and the many buttons/functions.

it went something like this: so it gives you a B* too? LOL
