Drives nice, lot of technology, plenty of power for highway rampup. Cost is high comparatively but comes with the Audi brand.

2010 --->2019 S5 Cabrio; Best Move Ever

I really enjoyed my 2010 version of this car, despite the repairs costing me more than owning a Camry for 18 years!). So, I decided to get the newer version w/the turbo V6 vs. the older supercharged V6. It makes a dramatic difference in the feel of the car. They've also upgraded the interior significantly in terms of quality of materials and user interface (love the Virtual Cockpit). Just crossing my fingers I don't get a 'mechatronic control module' failure at 40k miles like the last one . . . Not a cheap fix. Still, wouldn't want to drive anything else right now. Best thing for fun in the sun when you live in California.

2018 Audi S5 Prestige quattro 2dr Coupe AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)

As a long-term German manufacturer fan. I have tasted from the cup of Mercedes, BMW, and now Audi. My first Audi was a 2017 Audi S3. I loved the way you could chuck it into corners and overall just how fast that little pocket rocket could be. As great as the S3 is, I still hungered for more. So for my birthday, I upgraded myself from the S3 to a 2018 S5 prestige trim. I opted for the coupe version because after test driving both it handled better but still has a large enough backseat to put my kiddo on our rides together. The reason I call this car “The Best all rounder” is the S5’s ability to be a comfy hwy cruiser, around town looker, and canyon carver with the sport diff option. I have a daily driver so I have began the process of making my car a M3 fighter and it has done beautifully. The EA839 engine is a beautifully designed V6 and so far (knock on wood) I have had no issues with it at all! Many of the maintenance items you are able to do yourself which saves during those key intervals and thanks to YouTube and Google searches, you can find ways to make your S5 uniquely yours. Overall, out of the 440i, S3, C63, and S5, the S5 has been my favorite of the bunch. Nothing compares to the pure power I had in the c63 but it spent more time in the shop than I care to count. If you are looking for something good on gas, fun to drive, and when maintained well reliable, give the S5 a try. You will not be disappointed!!
