Default Rick's SQ5 in Estoril Blue & Garage

I just returned from Glenmore Audi in Calgary. They have taken delivery of my '14 SQ5 in Estoril blue.

I am going with a full hood/fender 3M package including mirrors, rear rockers, and luggage sill. I am also having the front windows tinted to match the rest of the greenhouse. The dealer is installing my Hartmann/Blizzak winter wheels.

I will be picking it up on Friday, the 3rd. Really looking forward to getting it.

In anticipation of its arrival, I have spent some time preparing my garage. Here's some pics of where it will live:

It came equipped with 21" Pirelli P-Zero's. I was anticipating Dunlop's.

Rick, quick question, does your SQ5 has the double stitching on the top of the gauge cluster

I'm not sure since I only peeked in it for a second earlier today. I will confirm on Friday when I pick it up.

I ordered my SQ5 in November in Estoril blue too. I thought you couldn't get 3m on the mirrors as it wouldn't adhere to the aluminum.

That may be true. I was speaking with the girl who takes care of the financing and "packages", not an installer. It's quite possible I am told the same thing. Will have to wait and see.

Wow that's an impressive garage. My SQ5 wants to know if it can come live with you...
Congratulations on finally getting it. It's a joy to drive!

I got the 3M package as well as it comes highly recommended by several bloggers. Needs professional installation to avoid bubbles and folds. Still looks good but has only been 4 months. I'll check for the mirrors but from memory they 3M'd the mirrors too; they're grey plastic not aluminum.
