OOOOoooo, great news. Look like I'll be taking some time away from work to play with this for a little while. One thing that I can see right now is that there really isn't much color selection. All neutral black, silver, white, blah, blah, blah. You can't even get red.
I am hopeful that Audi USA will extend the Audi Exclusive options to the Q3 line. For those unaware, on nearly any Audi, you can spend an additional $3900 for custom exterior paint, made to order. It's a very cool program, befitting a true luxury marque.
More details on Audi USA's 2015 Audi Exclusive program is available towards the end of the following PDF file:

I'd like to order a Q3 in either Amethyst Metallic:
or Verdant Green Metallic, for a truly uniqu3 Audi Q3:
A Samoa Orange Audi Q3 would be a contender too.
For now, Audi Exclusive is not available on the A3 or Q3 in the USA, but I have heard rumors that the program will be available for Gyor, Hungary manufactured vehicles (A3 and Q3) within the next 6 months to a year, after the initial order rush is filled.
