The things I do not like about the car I would not have been found out on a test drive. The seats are hard and not very good on long trips. The heated seats suck. The tip auto bogs down at slow speeds in town. Also these are the things I did not think I would miss that I have had on my other cars. I would like to have the seat belt presenter it is kinda hard to get the belt. I would like to have had remote start. Heated Wheel, Lighted door handles, power folding mirrors, head light high beam dimmer, cold seats, I think these are all things that should have come with a 60k+ car. I do like the car but it is something I do not see my self keeping for 2 or 3 years. And people have talked about the all wheel drive part of the car. Well I am sure it works great with the right tires but I should not have to spend 1k on a set of new tires for a car that I just paid 60 grand for. I would love to have had all seasons on the car. But anyways just my 2 cents Thank you all for the comments. The good and the Bad. That just shows the passion that some of you have for Audi. But as far as the re posting I have seen many re posts on here before. FYI about the wheel shutter and around 60 mph which by the way my car does not have.

I'm with you on only of your points: the steering wheel is manually adjusted, no cold seats, no heated steering wheel, no soft closing. That's about it. In the market now, S5 is the best Coupe you can possibly get (unless you have enough money to get yourself into the new Bentley GT Speed then screw the S5)

door handles are lighted, and yes, you are right the power folding mirrors should be an option, they wre standard in the US in 2008 S5's, but removed as option in 2009 and 2010, you can' still get them as an option in other countries, but the S5 cost alot more in other countries also, what the heck is headlight high beam dimmer, the truth of it is in the US audi limits options for their cars compared to other countries, but you can have S5 with many options outside of the US.

With all due respect, the E550 looks like something a hot blond with big ***** would be DRIVING. Nice car, but IMO very "doctor's wife", and the cut lines Audi used to make the A5/S5 so sexy just look forced on the new Benzes.
I love my A5 S-Line, think the interior is beautifully made, and although I agree on the overcomplicated button arrangement they can become second nature after driving it for a while. The driving experience is also great. In fact, I love the A5 so much I am trading it for an S5 Cab.

As I posted in another thread: I own a 2010 s5 and I feel like a I am dating a really Hot Blonde chick with kinda big ***** ( not so fast v8). Looks really hot and will make you cream in your jeans everytime you look back at it in the parking lot. But she is lacking what really matters. I am really wishing I would have went for the MB E550 Coupe now that lady has it all. I think everyone loves this car, but it is not what you would bring home to your parents and tell them what you are paying for it. And as far as BMW goes, Audi by far has better interiors than bimmer. My cousin has a 2010 335i convertable and it just looks really cheap. I think I am going to trade my s5 next year for a MB E550 coupe. I just hope she dont take me for a ride when I go to divorce her (lol)

Why in the world would you buy a $60K car without taking a test drive and thoroughly researching the features it does and does not have????? And then have the gall to complain about what you did in an Audi Forum????
