Default Debating trading my B7 RS4 in... will my steering wheel fit?
I have the european flat-bottom RS4 steering wheel, and am spoiled by it.

I'm debating trading my car in because I really prefer the way the S5 handles compared to the cushy DRC system I have now... what do you think? Will the steering wheel swap over, and am I making the right choice?

Cushy? I'd call the RS4 suspension anything but cushy.

Default S5 is nice - but getting rid of an RS4 for one??
I wouldn't: RS > S

Ditch the DRC and buy some coilovers.

Wait for the next RS.

Default The RS4 is a great handling car. The S5 will not compare to an RS even though the S is great.
Invest in a 2500 Stasis Suspension and your car will be amazing.

Default Point well said. I agree with AuditudeRS4. However, I do like the looks
better of the new S5 but the RS4 is still one of my favorites.

Default Wow, deal breaker for me personally....
Some folks don't require open sunroof, and I'm not a cabrio guy. Maybe the next S4 will be different in that respect and keeping the new ballance. Too many other nice cars in this segment with an opening sunroof--coupe or otherwise :-(
