Audi S5 Luxury Sports Car Review
With
the likes of Lexus, Mercedes, BMW, and even Jaguar, Audi has become the
forgotten stepchild of the luxury automobile world. Now before Audi
loyalist jump out of their seats in defense of their sacred brand, let
is be of note that you can find a Lexus, Beamer, or Benz on just about
any street corner in America. Meanwhile, with few exceptions, a person
would have to be in a major metropolitan area to spot an Audi.
1
in 1050 people bought a Lexus in the United States in 2007. 1 in 1000
people bought a Benz or a BMW. 1 in 3200 people bought an Audi. Audi's
are less exclusive than any of those brands and they sell fewer models
world-wide then any of the previously mentioned brands. But why is this?
Fear not Audi fans. Unlike Brutus, I come to praise Caesar, not to bury
him.
Until the R8 it almost
seemed like Audi was incapable of making a sexy car. Please, sedans and
coupes that can double as beach balls do not constitute sexy. After Audi
introduced the R8, it's as if the company had an epiphany: sports cars
sell! And now along came the S5. The S5 is downright sexy. This is a
magnificent coupe with beautiful lines and over 350 raging horses.
Inside the cabin is what you would expect from a mid priced sports car.
There is the Audi Multimedia Interface similar to BMW's I-drive. The
entire cabin is very ergonomic to say the least. Audi gets an A+ in
every category when it come to the S5.
I hope you enjoyed reading this
article and look forward to your continued readership. When I'm not busy
writing on things that interest me I retail clothing, accessories, and
self help products.
