I was very close to the purchase of an A5 last fall (actually, would have bought one last spring but decided to wait and drive the new A4 first) when the US economy went haywire. Under the circumstances, my country needs me more than I need an automobile with slightly better fit and finish. I will be buying American.

This country might be in better shape. A5 is a nice car, its a looker no doubt, but its lines are no sexier than the Camaro, its performance is not as good, and its cheaper/easier to mod/work on...for me it was an easy choice...plus, I had to follow my heart, I'm no pimp, I'm a muscle car fan, plain and simple.

The S5 is gorgeous, classy and more refined than the Camaro, there is no real comparison on paper IMO, S5 wins in majority of the categories

The SS looks way better on the outside. However, the Audi does put it to shame interior wise though. Gotta say though, that's a weird placement for all the electronic controls. It's a smart placement in a sense, but I think I'd feel more comfortable with all the radio controls near the actual radio lol.

They are both damn good looking cars IMO, GM would have to go out of business for me to get one though.

The theory is that you can control everything in the car while using the arm rest.... and it works really well. |
