Essentially, this A-Series Audi has almost all the options of an S-5. Check out excerpts from a great article on the 2009 A5 from Left Lane News: 
    Any breakthroughs?
    The A5 is the first Audi to utilize the all-new MLP (Modular Longitudinal Platform) chassis architecture. The main advantage to this new setup is allowing a longitudinally mounted engine and transmission to be set farther back behind the front axle. This allows for a more even weight distribution, which results in better handling. This chassis also allows for flexible wheelbase lengths and will underpin the new A4, A6, A7, A8 and Q5.

    Audi Drive Select, an adaptive steering, suspension and throttle mapping system, is now available on the A5. For instance, hit "comfort"? and the steering weight is very light and easy to move; the suspension is at its softest; and the throttle eases into your acceleration inputs. Press "dynamic"? and it's entirely opposite. Firmer weighted steering for more precise maneuvers, stiffer suspension for better handling and aggressive throttle tip in. 

    There is also an "auto"? button that will let the computer decide for you, but unless your grandma is in the car, pressing "dynamic"? should be the second button you hit after the engine start button. You can also use the custom button to set up the various systems individually.

    How does it look?
    The A5 is beautiful, it's true. If you see its face in crowed place, you'll know right away - mostly because a pair of LED daytime running lights will be staring back at you. These two strips of LEDs make for a look unlike anything else currently on the road. They add a menacing look to a front end that's already sneering. To hell with BMW's "angel eyes;"? Audi's "angry brows"? are king.

    The LEDs are the reason most people stare slack-jawed at the A5 in the first place. From the lights, their eyes follow the perfectly sculpted lines all the way to the rear of the body. It's at that point that they realize they are looking at one of the most unique, alluring new cars on the road.

    A lot could be written about the A5's near flawless design, but the photos can also do a lot of talking. A warning, however. Some of the A5's beauty manages to escape the lens of most cameras. There have been countless cars in the past that need to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. The A5 is one of them as it holds back that last bit of "wow factor"? until you're standing next to one in the showroom reaching for your checkbook.

    And inside?
    You may grow tired of automotive journalists using lines like "typical Audi interior with high quality material, fit and finish."? Well, what can I say? There isn't really a better way to say it. Audi is very good at making interiors with great materials that look, fit and feel great.

    Inside there are grays and blacks offset by handsome aluminum accents. The design of the dash and center stack is simple and elegant. One need not be intimidated by Audi's MMI interface. Given a bad rap by BMW's iDrive system, Audi's controls are really quite easy to pick up. For the most part, a day or so of using MMI should be all the lesson time you need.

    While the inside of the A5 is quite a nice place to be, it's not without faults. If you opt for the S-Line package (I'll explain why this is a must shortly) you get seating surfaces covered in alcantara. That's fine -- only, it's perforated alcantara. It seems to cheapen the look a little, though to be fair, you'll be sitting on it.

    Another problem with the seats is the side bolstering. The bolsters are pretty sizable, but when you have a car capable of these kinds of cornering speeds, they need to be bigger.

    Finally, it's worth mentioning the back seats. There are definitely two seats in back, but if you happen to have legs, sitting in them might pose a challenge.

    But does it go?
    Many of the A5's initial critics said that the car doesn't corner very well. They say it's more of a highway cruiser than a sports car. After spending some time in the A5, I started to wonder if everyone was stupid but me. This A5 didn't go around corners; it carved corners like Bode Miller, only, without the booze and lackadaisical approach. Want to take that corner posted 35 mph at 55 mph? Simple. It'll rotate through that corner, hold the line with ease and then dare you to do it faster. Your courage will break before the grip does.

    The reason my experience was so different from the others was the suspension. My car had the S-line package, which includes, among other things, a sportier suspension and 19-inch wheels with Dunlop summer performance tires. The S-Line package is a game-changer for Audi's seductive coupe. It's optional, sure, but it should be standard equipment for any enthusiast. Add the Drive Select on the test car and your handling will improve even more.

    Speed-wise, as we've already said, it's not the fastest car out there. Though to call it slow would be asinine as the A5 still manages a 5.8 second 0-60 time with the 265-horsepower, 3.2 liter V6 mated to a six-speed manual transmission Drop the hammer and you will accelerate with authority. Even with the high-revving V6, the A5 returned a 23 mpg average by the end of the week.

    The six-speed, cog-swapper falls under the "pretty good"? category. Somewhere in there, there is a notch, or some anomaly, that feels like third gear, but when you go there, it ain't third. Overall, shifts are fairly smooth and the throws are a moderate length. 

    Why you would buy it:
    The A5 gives you a little of everything. It's a devastatingly beautiful car, is quick and handles very well when equipped properly. Even better, the fuel economy isn't typical "sports car" horrible.

    Why you wouldn't:
    You crave the power of a V8, or BMW's twin-turbo inline six, and aren't willing to compromise.

Audi SQ7 spied for the first time

Thu, Apr 23 2015

Audi isn't really hiding that its engineers are hard at work on a high-performance version of the latest Q7. However, we haven't seen any of the fruits of this labor, until we got these fresh spy shots of the SQ7. With seemingly no camouflage on the car, these photos might give a very good idea of what to expect from Audi's speedy SUV. One big tip-off of the model's performance aspirations is the redesign of the front end's lower portion. New ducts beside the foglights send cool air to what appear to be intercoolers. This test model rides on a very cool-looking set of basket-weave style wheels, and the big, cross-drilled brakes are easy to spot behind them. At the rear, the quad exhaust tips also signal something special. Our spies also snapped some shots of the interior. If there is any question about whether this is the SQ7, these photos certainly assuage it. The badging is plain as day on the gauges, but at this point the changes appear to be fairly minimal beyond that. We know the SQ7 is going to get more power, but the method isn't officially confirmed yet. Although, Audi technical boss Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg said bluntly last year that it would use an electrically turbocharged engine, possibly an evolution of the V6 diesel in the RS5 TDI Concept. Hackenberg also suggested that the SQ7 would go on sale in 2016. Though, the actual debut might come earlier. Regardless, the tweaks should make the SUV quite a performer. Even on the standard version, it weighs 700 pounds less than the previous generation, while remaining about the same size.

Mattias Ekstr?m unleashes bonkers 600-hp Audi S1 Supercar on World RX

Sat, 26 Apr 2014

Mattias Ekström doesn't need to prove anything. He's won the DTM title twice and before that the Swedish Touring Car Championship. But being a racing driver as he is, Ekström has been looking for new challenges. He's contested the Swedish Rally six times, the German Rally twice, he's driven in V8 Supercars and in NASCAR. He's even won the Race of Champions. Twice. Heck, we're surprised his long-time sponsor Red Bull hasn't let him try out one of its F1 cars. But this season it's on to a new challenge: the inaugural FIA World Rallycross Championship.
Ekström drove a Volkswagen Polo fielded by Marklund Motorsport in the Swedish rallycross round last season and came in second, but this year he's diving in head-first with his own team and his own car. His outfit EKS is hard at work preparing the new Audi S1 for competition in the World RX Championship, and will field two of them this season: one for Ekström and another for JWRC champion Pontus Tidemand.
Built to compete in the top category of the championship, the EKS Audi S1 Supercar will pack a 2.0-liter turbo four with 600 horsepower, all-wheel drive and a 0-60 time of 1.9 seconds. It's expected to make its debut late in May at the World RX of Great Britain where it will have to tangle with specially prepared versions of the Citroën DS3, Ford Fiesta ST and Peugeot 208 driven by the likes of Tanner Foust, Ken Block, Jacques Villeneuve and Petter Solberg. The sole North American round will be held in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, in early August, on the same circuit that once hosted Indy Lights, ALMS, Grand-Am, Can-Am and Trans-Am races.

Audi UrQuattro gets the Petrolicious narrative

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

Audi started a revolution in the world of rallying when it paired an all-wheel-drive system with a turbocharged, five-cylinder engine and a rakish, three-door body. That car, the Quattro, didn't just upset the entire balance of the World Rally Championship, it (eventually) led to a transformative effect on the consumer car market.
But we're not just interested in this car simply because history has proven the UrQuattro to be important - we love its sharply creased looks, its offbeat soundtrack and its gravel-spitting abilities. Evidently, so does the crew from Petrolicious, as they've lavished their lenses upon the car. This particular model hails from 1983, and has covered a healthy 175,000 miles, says owner Manuel Leon Minassian. His first experience with the Ur (meaning "original") came in Beirut, where the car received plenty of praise from students at his school.
That first encounter led to a long passion for the Quattro, culminating in his purchase of this car four years ago. Take a look at Minassian and his Audi in the latest video from Petrolicious.
