A5/S5/RS5 [Official] Audi A5 facelift

[SKY]

^^^ They better keep the RS5 like the pre facelift, like BMW did with the M3.

Nah, not gonna happen, you know Audi, they innovate in design one every eight years, so when that happens they introduce that "innovation" in every car.

Have Audi botched up one of the finest looking front ends in the industry? I really hope not.

The supercharged 3.0T is detuned to 268 bhp ?? Why ??

It's missing the wheel arch flares.

Yeah,and the bumper is from the A1 Clubsport,the wheels are take from the A3 sedan concept,but to quote some one in the know "it's not too far off". The RS5 facelift is also getting a flat bottom steering wheel.

I absolutely love how Audi is copying BMW with the exection of the LEDs in their tail lights and carrying it through to the front lights as well. No Voorsprung there Audi.

 

[donkeykong]

I love how BMW is copying Audi's led headlights. It brings me "joy".

 

[murcie]

still unconvinced

 

[donkeykong]

Initially I was as well,but I now think the facelift looks great.

The thing so reminds me of the new 1er. They really ****** up an otherwise beautiful car.

 

[klier]

1er is even uglier, but yeah. Major screw up.

 

[SKY]

I have to say I´m liking this. When I first saw the official pics, I thought they had screwed up the entire car. But the S5 looks very nice IMO.

 

[martinbo]

Waaay better than old boring block eyes.

I don't see how this reminds you of the new 1er, nor do I see how they have screwed it up. I can of like it though you are right that the old one was more beautiful but then they had to do something at the mid cycle point to freshen it up and at least it now sports the nice new corporate face.

1er is even uglier, but yeah. Major screw up.

^I have to agree the 1er was fouled to epic proportions. I see no correlation to the A5 face lift. People may miss the preface lift,or even say it may take some time to get use to,but it's still an attractive car. I now see it as an improvement,when I wasn't sold at first.
