A5 testing video at the Ring

Lots of cover up, but promises to be a looker I think.

E class is between C and S...the A5 is a coupe not a sedan.

Yes and No, the A5 is being based on the A4 chassis but with 2 doors.
It did sound like a V8 you are correct on that, word is that Audi will offer it in S-Line(pointless if us ask me, but oh well) as well as the S5 will debut a year later, there is talk of a RS5 as well but with Audi who knows and if so depends on their "marketing" if we will get it here in the states in RS form.
Cant blame them though the company that builds anything RS (Quattro Gmbh) is small and cannot produce as many vehicles as the M division or the AMG house.
Right now they got a full plate with the RS4, upcoming RS6 as well as the R8 which will be pretty low production something like 1100 units worldwide for 2007, way to go Audi in keeping the resale value up there for the R8.
If the A5 looks anything like the photoshop ones it will be damn sexy, cant tell too much with the masked one in the video all cars look stupid ugly when they dont want you to see them.

pacostacos is infamous around these parts
I am guessing from its handling in the wet that it has quattro as well?
