SQ5 vs Q5 3.0T

[delz05]

Due to a needed hip replacement, I may have to sell/trade my beloved 2015 Ibis White A5 S-Line Comp package with APR stage 2 and other upgrades.

I have researched but can't find any "real life" pro/con over the SQ5 vs the Q5 with 3.0T. I love doing upgrades, but would like to know if the SQ is fast enough out of the factory, compared to upgrading the 3.0t Q5.

Looking for honest opinions from those who have had or have both, and to make matters worse, looking for a Volcano Red or Sepang blue each with black optics. I want the SQ with 20" wheels, not the 21's.

Pictures, links, upgrade ideas with costs all welcomed.

Thank you in advance...

You should repost this in the Q5 forum.

I just picked up a 2014 Q5 3.0T and dig it. I will be doing a Stage 2 tune on it at some point. It was about 8k less than similar SQ5's. I'm happy with my 3.0T; S-Line, Sport Interior, TI Package (aka black optic), and Audi Damping, which is rad.
