Default Glacier White Q7

My dealer just gave me a white hot trade-in on my SQ7 and we picked up this Q7 Prestige with air suspension and the luxury package. First time we've had a white ride in a long time.

I'm so used to everything black optics, no chrome, etc - so this is a a nice change for a while. Needs front tint asap.

I'm surprised you dropped out of an SQ7 and into a regular Q7. Why the move?

Also, Glacier White is clearly the best color

SQ7 is beast for sure. Amazing ride - but we're almost out of warranty and we've had an intermittent check engine light coming on & off, prob related to cooling system which one dealer already tried to fix.

It also needs brakes, tires and visits the pump frequently.

Dealer gave us more than expected on a trade in, tossed in AudiCare, took advantage of the Costco discount and even delivered it to my house. Hard to pass all that up when the math makes sense. Wife rarely uses the HP, so this is more appropriate for now.

All good reasons. Congrats on the new ride.

Looks fantastic, and great that they put the right wheels on See very few Q7s with the Modular style alloys, they were a unique factor that sold me on my car --

Glacier white gang

while I would've loved an sq7, this will certainly get the job done for now. sounds like you got rid of yours at the right time.

Yeah! Those look great, much better than pics. Gotta see them in-person.

Agree the timing was right. I like that I can set this Q7 in Individual mode, everything in Sport and lowered, and still get around town with ease. The SQ7 in Sport / Dynamic is way too much for city streets. It wants to race off every line with power (which is awesome) but this is much more easy to handle.

It's so bad *** for sure - probably the best value Audi offers. We put 40k on our in 2 years.... mostly driven hard to Costco.
