    Question Looking into a new 3.0t would love some input

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey guys, this question was probably beat to the bone at this point but to be honest I'm currently just to lazy to research it. I sold my B8 A4 last month and now in the market for a new car (lease). My girlfriend should get her B9 A4 by the end of the week and we need an SUV as a second car. I would love to get my hands on an SQ5 but the lease prices in my area are just insane on it. So my next runner up is the Q5 3.0T. My question is what are the must haves and not so must haves with options on the Q5? I personal want the tech, black optics, sports interior packages. Should i be looking for anything else? Any input is highly appreciated.

    I would add the S-Line option. It gives you dynamic, comfort, and auto options. Also a cool steering wheel :)

    I thought all 3.0's come with the Sline trim? Black optics is a nice option to have - so is the tech package. That's really all you need in my mind! You're going to have fun with it. The 3.0 is a great car with huge tuning potential. Even stock it can still give'r when you want the power.

    tune is a whole different world with this car, the number APR is advertising are still hard to believe and i will be making a few calls if i end up with the car. On my A4 i had the APR Stage 2 and it was no where near those gain on a stock car.

    I did not know that about the 3.0 version. Thanks! I have the black optics option and the 21" tires. Love it!

    Premium plus with tech and sports interior package. FYI B&o is worth the money. Blind spot and adaptive cruise would be nice but not nesscessary imo

    Correct me if I'm wrong here but I don't think the 3.0t comes in prestige... the dampening suspension is just a $1k option

    It does, but I think they're few and far between. The adjustable dampening is definitely available on the Premium Plus trim. From memory the only things that the Prestige added were Adaptive Headlights, and heated/cooled cup holders (and about 3Gs). I think you're on the money already with the packages you listed. Sport seats are a must IMO.
