Seriously contemplating replacing our 2011 Q5 with the new one, but can you explain further "we don't get google earth... big letdown as I didn't know this was not avail in Canada till I got the car...".

Do you mean that we don't get Google maps including traffic with Android Auto?

Thanks,

Mike

You can get Google Earth with Android, but the native navigation app does not display Google Earth like it does in the US. This is because there is no carrier contract for data in Canada. Note that if you use Android Auto, you wont be able to get the map to display on the virtual cockpit since it only works on one screen.

Thanks, Wizzofoz - very helpful.

Looking at getting the new q7 progressive model, anyone know how much under msrp I should be asking for?

Zune, Wizzofoz, and drfe99 -- what dates did you guys place your orders? I placed mine first week of April and have not heard a thing.

drfe99

I placed mine on January 19, and took delivery of the car on June 16. From what I have seen on this forum and the US forum is an approximate 5 month wait for delivery. I will tell you once you have the SUV it is impressive, however a very frustrating experience from a delivery perspective.

Mid-Jan, car was built mid April and delivered on June 24th.

Zune

Hi Audiguz...ordered mine Feb. 22nd. Originally told scheduled delivery would be late May/early June, then late June/early July, now late July/early August. Like drfe99 said, sounds like about 5 months delivery timeframe for now.

Thanks for the responses.

Did any of you end up getting any compensation for the delays and the quality hold issue?

Zune

Not sure yet. Our dealer said he would be demanding some kind of compensation from Audi Canada, but not quite quite sure what that might be. I don't think they can give me much of a discount on the vehicle itself...maybe Audi Care discount?
