Meet the Audi A5 **Updated** Now Meet the Audi S5

[Tommouse]

Well I guess Audi did their job with the front, they made a statement. Some love it, others don't. Thats good, and I'm happy they didn't just go conservative to keep from having anyone dislike it, but at the same time no one will love it. I personally lub the big grill front end.

It is, or the S5 will get the 4.2 FSI V8, but not the hi-rev one found in the RS4 or R8. I think its guesstimated around 390hp from what I have heard. No idea about the V10, but that would be awesome if they could shoehorn that in there!

note the bmw 335 rip off? anything from the curves to the lighting.

even the "dent" that runs along the side, basically the M5.

audi need to get off the tracing paper and onto the drawing boards...

manual for car enthusiast, auto for lazy arse, DSG because its their signature gearbox.

Why are they comparing this to G35 coupe. For christ sake, this thing going to cost 10-15k over the G35.

If that's the case, they can forget it... I love the looks of the A5, but the 2007 G35 almost seems like a bargain for what you get.

Although, I do :heart: V8s! I don't know how I overlooked that at first.

Sell a kidney, donate some sperm some blood. Maybe chop off a leg since it has DSG. Now you made the differences.

It has a V8 in it, this thing gotta be close to $50-55K MSRP.

Or you can forgo all the power and go for the fun little TT....

Is there going to be an S5?

hmm A6 starts at 42K. I doubt they'd price the A5 more than the A6

Check out the price on the V8 version. I think it'll be price similar if not more.

Coupe that is in high demand always command a premium. ( G35 coupe> sedan, BMW 335i coupe> sedan, Accord Coupe> sedan....etc)

I think the new G35 coupe going to kick arse as long as they fix the interior. This A5 is more of a competitor to the 335i and M3(new v8 version) line.

36 mos finance going to cost roughly $1000k over even without interest. Too rich for my blood....for now

Never been a fan of Audi, and this is just really pretty meh.

You call this "meh"?

I think that's the last thing you'd say if you saw that bearing down on your rear view mirror.

Nice looking cars... too bad I probably can't afford one. That S5 in particular will probably end up getting priced in the "if you need to ask..." automotive price range.

The rear looks bangled

very very sexy!
