Okay. Now I have made up my mind. After seing the live pictures, and seing more A5/S5 pictures, I adore this car. I will forget Nuvolari, and this is the nr.1 Coupé right now. No doubt! Just look at this for gods sake. You can't find better finish anywhere.

LOL Quite a change after your first comments. Anyway, I think the car is very hot. There are still some small details that I'm not so sure if I like but I got to see the car IRL ASAP.

Still don't like the A5's front at all.. the S5 is a lot better and looks more like what i expect from Audi when it comes to forms harmony

I also have to say that Audi's latest rims designs (starting from the S6's) are to busy and complicated to fit the design of the whole car.

The wheels on the S5 at geneva look are chromed out and bling bling, unlike the photos above?

AMEN!

The worst thing they're making - the rims! Hideous, disaster, ugly, etc...

Because more pics I see more dated car looks. Looks fine, but uninspired.

The only exciting things are red leather & LED daytime running lights.

Otherwise the car is as exciting as a dead fish. Sorry.

Maybe Audi will learn one swooshy line on each side is not enough to make a car exciting.
Funny! It I made such remarks in the M3 forms I'd be looking at a life time band!!

You're from US, man, but you have some language problems or what?

As for your statement - no you wouldn't. Don't start...

I'm now certain that the new A/S5 is not in the same league as the 335i/M3! The A/S5 is in a class well above it. BMW fanatics can say what they won't, they continue to disregard the importantance of quality interiors. Not everyone cares just about the exterior. I want both and BMW has proven time and time again that they could careless.
