I think you mentioned this but do you have hooks for bags in the trunk? My B8.5 has two hooks on either side of the parcel shelf. I know the sportback doesn't have a parcel shelf but I was wondering if it has hooks on the sides or something.

Hey OP,

I'm assuming that you have the B&O system.. Where is the sub that is usually in the back deck on the S5 Coupe and S4 sedan?

I think its in the truck, under the cover. It sits behind the spare tire. It's the half-moon looking thing in front of the gear looking ****.

I found it by mistake when I was looking for the jack and tow hook, which are missing 😰

Default Jack location

It's under a separate cover at the base of the rear seat backs.

My image is a S5 Sportback also. Wouldn't it be cool if the image was the same color as your car? Maybe someone could figure out how to do this.

That is one gorgeous car! The Black Optics pkg really enhances the aggressiveness of it! Well done!

The Sportback feels more like the S4, but the difference is relatively subtle.

I am going to have to read the manual this time

Hi Glisse, I am a New Yorker new to the forum and am considering trading my beloved 2016 A7 mythos black/nougat for the new 2018 S5 in mythos black. My motivation is to maximize my A7 trade value (55K miles) and get something a bit more sporty, while retaining most of the A7 cache, comfort, and sexiness. What motivated you to move from the A7 to the S5, and do you have any regrets? I just don't want to wait for the 2019 A7 and find the pricing too high and my trade-in value too low. Also, a small point, but do the headrests on the front seats adjust fore and aft as on the A7? I would appreciate your insights as a former A7 owner. Thanks. Tom
