I'm impressed so far

I bought my Audi A5 two weeks ago. I also considered a BMW 135, but I live in Canada so AWD is important in the winter. I also wanted a spare tire just in case (BMWs have run flats). First impressions are excellent. We had our first major snow of the season yesterday and the Quattro is impressive. I tried it in an icy parking lot where hockey skates would have been a good idea and the Quattro was very effective. The engine note is not as sweet as the S5, but I went for the better fuel economy. So far, fuel economy is not what I was expecting, but perhaps the engine needs breaking in.

Gorgeous car but not so gorgeous gas mileage

This car is absolutely eye catching. It has a sleek looking interior as well. The only couple things I can say about it is the POOR has mileage. I have to fill up every couple of days. Very different from my last car. It is also not very fast to accelerate but once you get there its great.

The car is just fun to drive. It's a roadster built from the ground up and drives like it.

Bought a used 2013 with 118k miles on it in April 2022. The person I bought it from had it for 2 yrs before I purchased it and in those 2 yrs he replaced the water pump, battery, pcv, tires and brakes. In the 10 months that I’ve had it I’ve put 8k miles on it and no issues so far. I have replaced the belt, coolant reservoir, oil change and gas cap gasket. I’m getting a CEL periodically so I think I need a new gas cap. I love the EA8 engine and it’s so easy to work on. I do need to replace the upper timing chain cover gasket because I do have a slight leak. But the car drives and looks like a way newer car and I'm looking forward to keeping it on the road for at least another 50k miles or so? The only knock on it is the timing chain cover which is a known problem with this engine, oh and it does drink oil which isn’t too much of a problem to me as I’ve owned a bunch of Honda K series vtec engines that drank oil like crazy. UPDATE: I've had it 16 months and currently @ 129K miles and no problems. I run E85 during the hot SoCal Summers and 91 during the winter as this is a flexfuel engine. At the end of this year I'll replace plugs and coils, tires and brakes if needed.
