Default Coming back to a S5

Coming back to a S5 from a SQ5 I had a 2010 S5 and traded to for a SQ5. I have missed my S5 everyday. The SQ is just to hatchy for me. I love my coupes. Can't wait to order a new B9 S5. Anyone know when they will be out.

Congratulations! I came back to an S5 after owning a '13 Lexus GS F Sport. I also love my coupes, and every day of driving has been a blast. However, I'm trading in December when my lease is up for most likely an SQ5 because we need more practicality. You and I will be going in opposite directions.

From my understanding, the B9 S5 will be an '18 model introduced in April 2017, according to this.

BTW, we will be trading our G37 Coupe in June for either a B8.5 or a B9 S5 Cab, so we will have the best of both worlds!

Default congratulations on your S5...

I have had two S5's and an RS5. My wife and I just completed a two day charge through the canyons with a 150 mile loop each day. So glad we are in S-cars…

Happy Motoring

Eric

Yes. I remember you from the Q5 forum. Our Q was traded in for An RDX, but wife misses the Q and its superior build quality. We've talked about another Q, but not sure with newer ones built in Mexico and not Germany. Q7 is just too big.
As for the B9 S5. You'll read that it'll come with the turbo and not the supercharger and 8 sp, not the dual clutch. This does not appear to be an upgrade but the interior should be nicer with the virtual cockpit.
