Not so sporty

The S5 Sportback is a pretty large car. It has loads of power,torque and tech,but it feels kind of unathletic and not much road connectivity. The steering is uncommunicative. It’s hard to feel the perimeter of the car and thus it’s hard to park.i traded this car after a year for a BMW 440xi Gran Coupe which,although not quite as powerful is a lot more fun and engaging to drive.

Just the right balance

Got lucky enough to get a Prestige level with red seats, not many available in tri-state area. If you get the 20” wheels be ready to change your tires if you live in a winter environment. The gas mileage is not bad especially on highways. The ride is actually really smooth and relatively fast. I know the noise level and power train is not like the RS5 or M3, but ask yourself is $10k plus tax really worth the 100 HPs of a RS5. As for the noise level it can be altered for far less. The screen in the middle is a sore eye I always shut it off, the virtual cockpit and heads up display is far more friendly. This car allows you to have enough driving fun without getting into trouble. The back seating could be better, it’s a 5 seater but I would hate to be the middle person. The storage room is surreal especially with the seats place down. The safety features are excellent, again if you get the summer tires and you live in a snowy region be ready to change your 265/30R/20 summer tires, not worth the risk when it comes to braking or handling. At $69k msrp this car should have come with all season tires, power adjustable steering wheel, heat/ventilated seats and netting behind the front seats are unattractive. If you are in the market get the prestige trim, the heads up display and safety features alone is worth the extra bucks.

DRIVING THIS CAR WAS GREAT.The major problem is the trim at the bottom of the door that hits you in the bottom of your calf when entering. This item kept me from buying the Audi S5
