I have been thinking of replacing my Mercedes CL500, and feel the Audi RS5 would be a great subsitituion. I need a back seat, not for passengers but for bags, groceries etc. The Z and Audi would be a amazing combo. One a canyon carver the other a hwy missile. Not to pleased with the curb wgt of the RS5 which is comparable to the piggish GTR, but 450hp shouldn't make it seem so bad. A $90k estimated price isn't pleasing either. At that price there is a lot of competition in the sport coupe market. Not a BMW M3 fan which might change when they go turbo and the CTS V is way to heavy also. Just was wondering what you guys think of the RS5.
