Default Saw a B9 A5 today at dealership----

The first thing I noticed is that the sunroof opens fully rather than just tilting like my B8.5. Cool. Nobody had mentioned this.

I would guess Monsoon Grey, since Daytona Gray is only available on the S5.

Yes, there have actually been B8 owners in other forums bitching about this, but personally I would rather have a sunroof that actually opens rather than one that just tilts. (I owned a '15 S5 prior to my A4.)

I took those pictures from a French website. Don't have any details on the car or color...

Good looking car, but the front always is a "wah wah wah" for me. Interior, side profile and rear three-quarters look great! Anyway, we will all get over it and move on.

The only 'must do' mod for me when my S5 arrives is to put either a black optic or RS5 grille on it. That should improve the front end dramatically.
