I was hoping they will push the engine a bit further back, but right now it is still an improvement. Love those chrome/polished wheels

Re: Audi A5 Picture Thread

This car is amazing! Not only is the exterior extremely attractive imo, but the interior is the most eye dropping of all the the coupes that cost under $150,000. Audi is on top of the world these days! It's possible the only premium brand that you don't have to choose comfort or sportness. And I don't know about you but I like the fact that I don't see a Audi every three to five cars!

The more I look @ this car the more I'm reminded of the original Quattro coupe.

Hi,
I've placed an order this morning for an A5 3.0TDI Quattro in Aruba blue with 19" alloys (Y design) as per the show A5. I assume the show car has high gloss versions and the normal ones will be alloy finish?

Also, what colour is Aruba Blue as I've been told its brand new? I'm trying to find an example, is this it?

Or this maybe (photoshop?)

Thanks
Simon

Congrats for your order! Great car the A5 is.
About the color, have you checked the new Audi A5 configurator?

The more i see the Geneva photos the more i find it boring.

Re: Audi A5/S5 presented in Geneva: the pics!

Yes I've seen that but wanted a real life picture as the configurator colours aren't always that great. Are those pictures Sprint Blue?

Re: Audi A5/S5 presented in Geneva: the pics!

Very eager to see this car in person. This is what CNN Money had to say:

"Seeing photos of an all-new car in a magazine or on-line is important, as the overall styling details can catch your fancy or turn you off. For me, the new A5 looked interesting, but I also knew it was one of those vehicles that needed to be seen in the flesh to really understand it. It is beautiful, and sits with such a purposeful yet balanced stance that I do not even care that the also introduced S5 version sprints to 60 mph in just a bit more than 5 seconds. I just want to sit in it - touch it - and make sure all of my neighbors see me doing just that. This is one of those rare cars that will shake things up when it hits the road - one of those cars that people will remember where they were the first time they saw one."

Is that good or bad?

I hope hes right because these latest pics is starting to make me not like it again. Maybe those IRL pics were just a fluke?

Now that's what I call a review
