If you’re looking for a car that’s right in between track and everyday driving then this car will fill that niche. It has more than enough power to pass most cars on the road (and I live in NYC) without sacrificing comfort or space. I have the: S sport package, black optics, bang&olufsen, virtual cockpit, leather seats, carbon fiber inlays, cold weather package. Pros: -You’re able to drop the back seats to create more trunk space (perks of a hatch) -More than enough power to pass most vehicles on the road. This vehicle provides such smooth and strong acceleration that you won’t even realize you’re doing 70 until you look at the gauge. -It handles like it’s glued to the ground. When you turn the steering wheel, the car goes exactly where you want it to go. It’s pretty amazing seeing other people’s reaction to driving my car when it comes to this (shoutout to Quattro). -Audis virtual cockpit is ahead of the competition in terms of it being easy to use and not clustered. -amazing interior and exterior looks. The interior is filled with quality materials and I always get compliments on the aesthetics of the vehicle. Cons- -There is an annoying lag off the throttle. When you push the gas, there’s a 2-3 second delay before the power is delivered. This may have intentionally been left this way to leave a gap between the rs5 and this in terms of performance. Although the car has more than enough power, it’s still underpowered compared to the m340i and maybe even the c43. Getting rid of that throttle lag could have closed the gap a bit. -There is some rattling noises sometimes as you’re driving. -At a whopping 63k msrp you’d expect some basic things like heads up display, a 360 camera, or the interior lights package to be standard. Also, Audi needs to get with the times and provide a remote start option. BMW has it, what’s taking you so long?

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.

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
