Default SPOTTED: FinallyS5 on Washington St in Brighton. Rob is alive and apparently doing well...>
Car appeared totally stock again, though. Couldn't quite see the roof to confirm.

Funny thing is that I saw the car coming from a good distance. I was stopped in the opposite lane with my bald head out the window, totally staring at him. He passed by me no more than 10 feet away and never looked over. Just staring dead straight ahead. I guess I should've yelled to him. Or was he just selling me out????

I thought he had hinted at some problems with AoA and was getting rid of the S5, maybe not.

You're sure it was Rob driving it? I've seen another white A5 in that area recently.

Default 100% positive. Looked right at him and he was literally no more than 10 feet away as he passed.
And it was an S5, not an A5.

Default Well then, you are right on both counts!! Wondered if someone would
pic up on that technicality (hard to miss if Rob still had the S5 exhaust). I suppose it is good that Rob still is in the audi family, too bad he's not active here these days.
