    Drove both yesterday. Absolutely. 100+ HP is a huge difference.

    I just went from a 3.0T to an SQ5. Pretty easy answer: yes.

    Seriously?? Hells yeah!

    S-Line = trim package from the "S" cars.
    "S" car = more power, better brakes, better suspension, and aforementioned trim.

    The real question is if the cost difference is justified. You can mod a 3.0T to SQ specs, but if done properly, you'll wind up spending the same if not more to get it there and in the end, it's still just an S-Line. . .not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Remember that S line models aren't solely for the 3.0T, but are also offered with a 3.0L TDI. So the difference between the two could feel substantially different if a S line Q5 3.0T is compared to even a S line Q5 TDI.

    Yes. The bumpers(mainly the rear diffusor) and side skirts are the main difference between S line and non S line models. Also, Audi Drive Select(with suspension dampening) was available with S line models which isn't available with non S line models or even completely available in SQ5 models(no dampening).

    When did Audi start offering Audi drive select? I just purchased 2011 s-line Q5. How do I know if my model comes with it?
    Sorry, I'm very new to Audi world.
