Let me just say that this was a step down in performance from my previous car, an Alfa Romeo Giulia Quad, but luckily, not too much. I had to get rid of the previous car due to serious reliability issues. I was looking for something more standard, and reliable, but still with some excitement. I will say that this car is a clear step up in interior, layout and ergonomics. The materials are much higher quality. I was looking at a Mercedes-Benz C 43, which had a great engine, but was not as ergonomically intuitive. This is still a very powerful car, though there is a certain amount of sponginess and turbo lag in the acceleration initially, but once you get used to this, it is a very capable car, and is certainly beautiful. Overall, I strongly recommend it. We will see what the reliability is in the coming year or so.

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.
