Modified Luxury and Exotics magazine did a big review of the S5 this month.

The highlights: It looks awesome, but it is definitely NOT a sports car. It is a sedate luxury car. They also called it 'schizophrenic'. The steering feels numb and distant, and the car does not like rapid steering input.

In the end, "they were left wanting more". They wanted more acceleration, more snap to the steering response, and more front grip. They said they would keep their eyes out for version 2.0.

Pick up sept/oct issue (white supercharged 560 Audi R8 on cover) to read the whole review.


That said....the S5 and the M3 are 2 different cars.

I do think the S5 looks hot.....but I would rather drive the M3.
