Audi RS 5 2018/19
 
Not really a huge fan of Audi, but I have to admit the RS 5 is looking pretty sharp and the power is there:

This would be a daily driver/impress the women car for me, so it wouldn't have to be the end-all for performance. That being said it looks like it would be a fun ride and reliable. I would rather have this over a BMW or a Mercedes.

It is all relative...after my Z experience a Land Rover would probably be more reliable. In Colorado Audis and Subarus dominate, so I have many friends that have owned them over the years. Seems like they have been getting high marks for quality recently in different publications.

Of course if the Supra turns out to be great, then the Audi is out!

Who "designed" those fugly wheels?

Looks decent but kind of blah.

Audi is finally starting to look really good again.
But they have to do something to break the monotony of the side profile.

Mercedesnomics are even more skewed than Porschenomics! That is a $150K car!

At the right angle, an A5/S5 looks like a bar of soap on wheels.

3.8 is damn quick with only 444 at the crank. Quattro dig :tup:

The Audi DSG is such a stellar auto that I hate to say it but you don't really need a stick on this one. Plus you can manu-shift at the shifter not just the flappy paddles so you can more or less have the best of all three worlds.

That said, bring on the new RS4 Avant! I have a space waiting in the garage :D

The old RS5 had a V8 that revved to about 8500RPM coupled with gorgeous looks. This looks like a honda accord and has a V6 turbo.
