That Daytona does look beautiful! The RS5 Sportback looks so much better in person though.

The bumper looks dangerously close to the curb.

We noticed the same thing! And the rear view camera doesn’t cover that. I’m guessing the lot attendant / salesperson has a feel for just how high those curbs are?

A comprehensive (long) review. I like the way they demonstrated the performance aspects all the way up to 50 MPH.

Welp. I decided on Nardo. Instead of waiting for 5 months on my ordered one I took delivery of one in stock. I'll post a detailed financial breakdown on the RS5 prices paid thread so you can learn what I paid. In the end, I'm happy because I don't have to wait and got what I wanted. I finally found a dealer that was willing to deal a little on an RS series in Chicago on a brand new model which is rare. Audi's up here sell like hotcakes in all flavors.
