Totally agree with everything you said here! One thing I'd like to mention though is how much better the other stitch pattern is for the seats (imo) than these ones. I picked up this exact car a few months back and I think the seats in my model change the entire vibe on the inside of the car. Although I don't believe they come with cooled seating, the stitching is definitely the first thing most people notice once they get inside. Just a thought for anyone looking to pickup this car :)

Touché! I love my 2018 S5 so much that I come back here to watch reviews of the similar North American spec S5. We’re stuck with a TDI based B9.5 here in Britain & Europe. That was definitely a mistake from Audi as Diesel is now so widely discouraged by European governments. I think the next generation will reverse that decision, presumably a petrol mild/full hybrid? The SQ7 has discreetly switched to a petrol unit recently. The 3.0T engine is a peach, mine has a stage 1 map pushing around 410hp and does a 3.81 0-60mph and a 12.2 standing 1/4, which is pretty close to the RS5. Great review, and now another day where I’m itching to go for a drive!

With the updated looks, it's extremely hard to recommend anybody bother with the RS5 over the S5. The RS is faster, sure, but doesn't sound or feel like it. And now it doesn't look that much different, either, and the interiors are identical except for the stitch pattern. Get an S5, let APR give it a basic tune, and save your $14,000.

I have a '19 S5 quantum grey S/B and I really like it. The sportback is really attractive... gets lots of compliments. The *only* thing I dislike is the small-ish fuel tank; I believe it's ~15.3g which means I get about 300 miles between fill-ups with pretty conservative mixed driving (driving down to the red fuel bar, not to "E"). Light foot & lots of highway I can push into the low/mid 300s. City only and/or a heavy foot and it's mid/high 200s. A 17 or 18 gallon tank would be awesome.

Own a 2012 S5 4.2 L V8 , 130k miles and runs great, and looks even better. Will never give it up. Still more horses than the V6. Display looks like an arcade game. This car should have never been converted to a sedan. Coupe is the way to enjoy it, looks sexier.

Nice review of a nice car. That almost seems, from a certain angle, like a really good value. Not that 62k isn’t a lot to spend on a car, and more really than you need to for a perfectly good one. But with the average new car near 40, that offers a really compelling package of style, brand prestige, performance and livability for a bit more.

beautiful car; it was in the running for my next car when I was shopping a few months ago....but I couldn't take having another "fragile" European car that was always in the shop as soon as the warranty is over. I got a Stinger and it's a nice "imitation" of this; it's got the style and the powerful engine and that great warranty in case it's needed. But i still drool anytime I see an S5.

Thanks Joe. What a car. I have a 2013 Audi S5 cabriolet prestige and I still love it today. I agree, I don't like the rectangle infotainment center sticking up off the dash on the new cars. Mine is quite small but built into the dash. My zonc on mine is it's not touch screen. My wife just drove over 1,000 miles round trip in it from CA to OR and back and I felt safe that she was in an all wheel drive with traction control... The 2021 is awesome. Looking forward to you review on the RS5! Be well Happy Holidays!
