Too New To Know

This is my 4th convertible. They were/are 1964 Ford 500 XL (a big boat of a car), 1976 Fiat Spyder (a real fun car), 1997 Sebring (a sedan with a top that went down) and the Audi 5A. The "car" before the Audi was a Rav4 SUV. (Also a couple of station wagons along the way between convertibles.) Stepping up in size is not a problem, stepping down is taking some getting use to. With less than one month ownership I have taken a trip from Chicago area around Lake Michigan and a second trip to Door County in WI. I am learning that a 77 year old body is not as flexible as a 35 year old one. Getting in, sitting and driving is not the problem. It is getting out after a few hours of driving. One problem is blocking the sun with the top up or down. The driver sun screen is very small. The Rav4 had a sun screen that when on the side window could be slide back to do a good job of blocking the sun from the side. The Audi does not. Most of the other "issues" with the car are due to lack of knowledge and education. Hopefully these will decrease with time. Biggest problem is finding cheap high octane gasoline for the car. Pulled into one station where regular was $2.83 and the hi test was $3.83. I did not buy there. But still paying 40 to 70 cents a gallon more. Have been told mid-grade gasoline should do an adequate job. Will try that since it is only about 20 cents more than regular.

Try the rear seat before buying, that's the only drawback other than perfection.

I had an Audi S4 previously, which I thought I could not top, but the A5 Sportback (Prestige trim) filled the bill. Sporty yet luxurious, great technology, and excellent safety features. Have had it for a few months now and love driving it !

Love my 2018 Audi A5 Sport back

The difference between the A5 Sport Back and the Audi A 4 sedan is that the trunk fits more stuff in it and that the car is much better looking. The car gets great gas mileage (city 26+ and hw 32+) and has been problem free. The car was on a 3 year lease but I liked the car so much I decided to buy it.
