What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Audi A5 / S5

Price of the Audi A5 / S5: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD		 More expensive than competitors
2009 2dr Coupe turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel
6-speed manual AWD		 Price is too high. The quality of the car when taken to the test, does not justify the price.
2008 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD		 Expensive base price as compared to a 335i (but still less than a 650i). Horrible leasing factors leave buying as the only real option.
2008 2dr Coupe 265-horsepower 3.2L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Too much money for some.
2008 2dr Coupe 265-horsepower 3.2L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 A little too high, but worth it
