Used 2012 Audi A5 2.0T Premium quattro 2dr Coupe AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A) Consumer Reviews
solid car
I bought it new and have about 60,000 miles. It is surprisingly quick for 211 horsepower, corners very well (.94g on the skid pad) and my combined mileage is about 26. It is also a great looking car. I live in Colorado and have no problem climbing or accelerating at 10,000 feet or above like some non turbo cars I have owned in the past. I have had no major issues and would certainly purchase another Audi.

Beautiful Car, Poor Gas Mileage and Ride
Lovely exterior, nicest interior I've ever experienced. I'm proud to be seen in this car. However, gas mileage is nowhere near EPA's 21/29 rating. I get a disgraceful 16-17 mpg in town, doing little highway driving -- and I'm anything but a leadfoot. In typical German fashion, controls/infotainment are way too complicated, very hard to learn. Also, I find the ride very stiff and rough, especially on some of West L.A.'s pitted streets. This is probably my first and last Audi. (I kept my previous car, a 1996 Mercedes C280, for 16 years, and I miss its simplicity.) UPDATE, February 2016: My 3-year lease of this A5 ended in December 2014. I had said it was probably my last Audi, but my wife bought an Audi Q3 compact crossover SUV in January 2015 and I drive that (reluctantly). I miss the A5's looks but not its rough ride and its disappointing fuel efficiency.
