Pulled the trigger...
Got the trade worked out and picked up a lightly used (5 months) 2010 S5 with 4300 miles that I had been looking at for a week or so. My 6 series almost refused to go, throwing a restraint system failure message while ON THE WAY to trade it off. Luckily my BMW SA was great about it as he knew I was trading it off and was in a bind. They got it all cleared up and sent me on my way within hours at no charge. The S5 is now in the garage and so far, I love it. Thanks to all who had input on pricing/driving as I was looking around. After years away from AW, it's good to see the community is still very active and I'm happy to be back in another Audi again.
Pictures are a bit blurry. Today I had a chance to snap a couple pictures but ran out of daylight and had the wrong camera with me for lower light photos.

Glad to hear that the trade and sale went smoothly, even if the 645i threw a small fit. I'm sure that you'll really like (some might say love, but that's a river) it. Definitely anxious to get mine in about 7 weeks

congrats
Nice ride, but are those holes in the front license plate filler (second picture)? Looks like someone put a license plate on (or at least made the holes). Those aren't supposed to be there.

I'm considering ordering an S-Line grill for it (I like the all black much better) anyway so I haven't fretted too much about it yet. But... shame on them for putting the holes there. I refuse to put a front plate on regardless of our regulations. I put them on if i get a fix-it ticket... and then take it off once the ticket is signed.

Yes I assume the previous owner did have one on. Our state requires front plates and my guess is that's where it was.
