Default Still amazed at how few Q5's are on the road!

I've been driving my Q5 for about 3 months and 4,800 miles, between NC and FL and I have only seen THREE other's on the road, ever (that's counting one that was parked). I find that simply amazing. If it were the Lexus RX I would have seen 3,000 by now!

Agreed it is amazing. I saw one Q5 before I purchased mine and have not seen one since.

They are all in Seattle. I have seen at least 20-30 of them since we decided to buy one in early November... I'm pretty sure Barrier sells at least 1 a week after talking with the sales guy last night.

Since taking delivery in Aug, I've only seen 2 other Q5's up here in Calgary.

PS Wow I love this vehicle for winter driving!

Move to L.A. and you'll see plenty. Including mine, there are three in my office parking garage alone. Someone in my neighborhood has one that I see a lot, and I see a ton on the road now.

Yep, even in LA, where 5 MBZs, 5 BMWs, 5 Audis, 10 Lexus on every corner - I saw no more then 6-10 from February.
