I actually prefer the S4 V design. I even like the 19" A5 wheels better than the 19" Cavo design.

Besides the lack of black optic, this was my second biggest disappointment with the S5 options.

It's interesting for the S5, when you add nav+ B/O to a premium plus, the prestige is $850 more and for that you get HUD, LED interior lighting plus (colors I believe), and top down camera (which is like a 360 camera I assume).

That's not bad for $850...

On the 2018 S5 Coupe it appears the stock radio has a cd player. Does anyone know the total watts?

Also, do you lose the cd player if you upgrade to the Bang & Olufsen Sound System? Not much info on the new usa build site. Thank you.

(yes I know cars are doing away with cd players but I'm old school)

The stock system has 10 speakers and a 6-channel amplifier, with a total output of 180 watts.

The B&O still includes the CD player.

Audi Sound System is, IIRC, the base system for US spec (it is an up-charge in EU). It is 180 watts, 4 front and 4 rear speakers, plus centre and subwoofer. Haven't heard it.

The B&O system uses the same CD player as above, which is mounted in the glovebox.

I haven't owned an Audi yet. Do they usually offer remote start?
