Default Color Choices

I'm going into the dealership next week to place my order for a new Q5. I'm having a hard time deciding what color to order. I typically order white or grey vehicles and I'm thinking about Monsoon Grey. I am also interested in Navarra blue and the new Azores Green color. What are some thoughts on these three colors? I can't seem to find many photos or videos of the Azores Green but it seems like a very interesting color.

I usually like white also and I find myself looking at a couple different colors. I think I am going to stick with white unless I can see the Q5 in another color in person.

There are plenty of Azores Green photos online and I've seen it in at least one video. Looks quite good and I'm glad they've introduced at least ONE different color this year (excluding new variants of gray and blue). That said, I wish there were even more new options. I like gray/charcoal cars but how many different shades do we need?

Wish they offered Azores Green on the SQ5 too. Looks awesome.

Azores Green is available for the SQ5 on the U.S. order guide

Yes but in Canada, it appears you get panther black for the SQ5 whilst the US doesn't. I'm in the US and want panther black, but don't care for Azores. Perhaps it will be added as a color option in a few months, which wouldn't be unusual for an Audi model launch.

I wish they were offering Nano Gray on the new Q5s. I was at a dealer today and they have a handful of A3s in Nano Gray...don't see why the Q5 can't get some non-metallic love (other than black and white). That with a Chestnut Brown sport interior and I'd be putting some money down.

Monsoon Grey is quite nice. Have it on our '11 Q5 at the moment and I find that it is a really good balance between dark and light.
