Looks pretty good.

Although I am fine with the old front end and will be happy with ordering a 2012 A5

Have you seen this on Car & Driver? It claims the 2012's will have the facelift - is this what I'll get when they deliver my 2012 S5 cab next week?

Well some of the 2012s have already arrived with no facelift

Maybe that whole week 37 (sept) rumor is true, those built after that will have the facelift.

What is the mention of 3.0tfsi (272hp) version of the A5, maybe European only.

Does this mean there will be a new order guide released soon?

Has anyone on this forum actually taken delivery of a registered 2012?

Anyone know how to decode an Audi VIN number, mine appears to be a much higher number.

I don't like the new look. It's missing the hockey stick LED lights. That's one of the main reasons to buy the A5/S5.

After reading the press release, I do like the new MMI system with Audi Connect. I wish I could get that in my 2011 S5.

Some of those pics from Car & Driver are not a S5/A5. They have a 4 door model in the pics.

I think that's the euro only sportsback with 4 doors.
