Quite impressed with overall experience. Overall experience is elevated with top notch quality of material, ambiance, Lighting and sound. Manual controls on A5 cabriolet could use some finetuning.

The looks caught me, the drive sold it

I was at the Audi dealer to drive a Q5, but the Sonos grey A5 Sportback caught my eye. I drove one and I was hooked. It is smooth and feels powerful. The S-line appearance package with the red calipers and rotor wheels, the blacked-out trim... I still look back at it everytime I park. The drive is smooth and it gets to speed quick. It is very flingable in the curves and off-ramps and it is stable at speed. The interior is nicely laid out, you have your choice of dash layouts on the electronic screen (which is nicer than you would think) and the infotainment screen works well. The cargo area seems huge and with the back seat laid down it is practically cavernous. Fuel milage is really good, but since i have a tendency to really romp on it for fun it is lower in my case. The Audi Quattro is the finest AWD system out there in my opinion. In the northern states, AWD is worth its weight in gold the 10 time a year you need it. Complaints? The navigation system is subscription based ($850/yr) which seems stupid. The car has the system in it, why can't I use it? Never-ending, the Apple/Android Auto play is a better system anyway and UT works very well. In short, I think it is a sexy, fast, and really good looking car. It works for me and is capable of hauling me (and 3 clients) around if need-be.

This car is business suit.

This car is outstanding. I leased a 2019 Florette Silver Metallic Audit A5 S-Line with the optic black package which includes the blacked out grille, mirror housings, flat-bottom steering while and piano black dash inlays (which I don't like very much but they're alright). The things I love the most are: 1. The looks of this car are amazing like I said, is a business suit. 2. The car drives and feel very nice. If you get the sport seats and flat bottom steering wheel like mine you're going to love the way this car feel when you are driving it. 3. This car is very practical with outstanding storage space and and a tail gate but with the looks of a coupe making it better than other basic sedans out there. 4. The audi MMI (multi media interface), virtual cockpit and controls feel nice, look nice and are easy to use, the Audi A5 is a nice place to be, you'll look for excuses to take out, to go to places in it, I even started going to the gym more often. The only thing I don't like about this car is: - Although practical with the tail gate and all it has VERY little interior storage in the front for basic items. The A5 doesn't even have a compartment for sun glasses so I have to put my sunglass case in the area under the arm rest, the problem with this is, thats where the wireless charger is taking up most of the space, other than that this car is basically perfect. 3 Years Update: 25k miles in it and 0 issues, just a lot of flat tires (these wide grippy summer tires love eating nails) Another thing that has been annoying the bejesus of out of me, is the Android Auto which tends to disconnect very often and just doesn't work well. The BT is good but doesn't connect to my phone right away (might be something in my phone settings) but I have friends with Toyotas that don't struggle as much as I do with with their android auto and BlueTooth setups. 3 years in, this car still gets looks in the street.

Best Car I've ever owned

This is my second Audi, previously had the A3 which although fun to drive, felt too small in general. I'm in love with my A5 after almost a year of ownership. The style nevers gets dull to look at. The interior quality is more than outstanding. But nothing beats how this car drives. Want it to cruise around like a luxury sedan and it will do just that. Set it up in Dynamic (sport) mode and it'll transform into a quick, solid rocket. It offers the best of everything in a car. Looks, power, build quality, comfort and efficiency. On a 12 hour road trip I averaged 5.5 L / 100KM and managed to get 880 KM of range. I love this car more than anything and if I don't keep it for a long time will definitely replace it with one just like it.

The best blend of class, design, quality, safety, sporty, handling, & agility. Considering another but they are getting pricier.
