Kev946 Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Nice but don't think I would swap http://www.autoblog.com/photos/audi-a5/ Quote
steve_b Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Looks nice, but will there be a S5. Might appeal more. Quote
Rob_Quads Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Looks rather bland to me. But then it looks like a lot of the As are going that way. All looking the same just different size. The S versions are much better looking. Quote
M13KYF Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 the prototype was much better looking. Made this to mainstream. Quote
sl114 Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 sod the S version, i want an RS5!!!!! grrrr Quote

The S versions are much better looking. Good sumation. I find all the Audi's very bland at the moment, and I'm not keen on the grilles. There's also that feeling it's a VW, Seat, Skoda underneath...

Rob_Quads Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Yup - I think previously the Audis did look like a bit above the other VAG group cars but now they fell like they are not really that much better so hard to justify the extra price over the other ones. I think giving the TT the same grill was a bad move as that was one car in thier range which was individual and not quite following the mould. Now an audi could come up behind you and it could be virtually any model from the look at the front. Quote
ir_fuel Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 There's also that feeling it's a VW, Seat, Skoda underneath... I sense badge snobbery ... You wouldnt be driving a BMW now, would you, by any chance? Quote

You wouldnt be driving a BMW now, would you, by any chance? I don't buy on a bdage never have. Don't foget I've had a Nissan, plus still have a Ford, also had many Citroens etc. It's just the reverse, why buy an Audi when you can have the equivalent VW for a lot less. For example, we've been considering a Touareg to replace my wife's Jeep. Quote
ir_fuel Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 thats not how it sounds when i read your sentence Quote
ir_fuel Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 and what equivalent VW would you get for the A5? The EOS? Quote
Kev946 Posted February 23, 2007 Author Posted February 23, 2007 thats not how it sounds when i read your sentence Ok I'll try again. My point is for example, why buy a A3 and pay extra when you can have a Golf. BTW I was driving a '97 Citroen Xantia as my main car for 18 months before I had my Zed. Does that sound like a badge snob? Quote
