Pros
Elegant, Head turner, Smooth, Slick, Fast, Fuel Efficient
Cons
None
I just picked up my brand new 2010 A5 2.0T Quattro 6 Speed Manual after waiting it for 3 months. It is worth the wait. The car has the premium package with B&O sound system, driver assist package with rear view camera & side sensors, S-line package, navigation, etc. Very nice low end max. torque. VERY smooth ride. Head turners everywhere !. Fast acceleration. This is the ULTIMATE coupe compared to others: Infiniti, Lexus, BMW, etc. If you like to be DIFFERENT with a fast, slick, smooth machine, the is the CHOICE WITHOUT EXCEPTION.

I’ve had my 2009 Audi A5 for 3 months and continue to be impressed by its handling and performance. I haven’t found limits to its cornering abilities, and its acceleration is smooth and fast. The 31 mpg on the highway was a welcome surprise – in town, of course, it’s not so great. The interior is fun, from real-time mpg to the soft shade for the tilting sunroof that lets some light in but no glare. The nav system is easy to use; the ipod integration system works well; the Bluetooth phone system is smooth. On the down side, the console is too complicated – it’s easy to become a distracted driver as I look for a radio pre-set or turn on my seat heater.
