I ordered my S5 in January which means I wait this car almost 1 YEAR.

I ordered Stainless in lays because I did not know that 09 S5 doesnot have that option and my dealer either : (

So the car comes with Alluminum which I hate it so my dealer ordered stainless in lays in German so it will take around 4-6 weeks

I will pick up my car next week first then when the parts come in Toronto I will set up again : )

However, there is one thing i am worried about.

Snow tire set !!

I really wanted a R8 Replica wheel but all sold out.

I do not know which wheel do i have to get.

they suggested me to get a Benz AMG replica wheel OR S5 winter tire wheel ( comes from audi so cost more )

i think that is only 2 option that i can choose

do you know any other good looking winter tire set for S5 2009 ?

please let me know and help me out !:)

Hey..I also have an S5 coming to Toronto. I have been allocated and expect it in the Spring. Stainless steel was my favourite, but we knew it was not available. I thus opted for Carbon Inlays. Is your dealer doing the switch free of charge? If not, how much for the parts and service to switch it? I imagine the piano black console is also included? I might consider going back to the stock trim and ordering the stainless stuff if it isn't too expensive. Its a shame they took it out as one of the options though

I ordered my S5 in January 2008. I was waiting this car for almost 1 year..
I ordered S5 2008 but the car had beed delayed and delayed so now I got 2009 model.
I ordered 2008 model with Stainless steel but when I confirm my order last September about 2009 model, I think my dealer did not know that Stainless steel has beed replaced to Carbon. When I saw my car at dealership last week, it was Alluminuim inlays. I was so pissed off so I asked to manager to change them. So, they order Stainless steel from Germany and it will take 4-6 weeks. I pay $500 for stainless steel which means there is no extra cost. : )
I also like Carbon but feel like everybody get the same. so I want to go for Stainless steel!!!!
I picked up my car today!!
omg I cant even believe that I am driving S5 in Toronto !!!

I'll bet you're thinking that 1-year wait was worth it. :D Once again, congratulations. Enjoy the car!
