Finally... a car with 6 SPEEDS! (ok, it's Tiptronic 6speed.)

I've been posting here for a little bit but always with my Cobra.

This past weekend, I'm feeling more at home at 6SpeedOnline.com becuase I just drove home a new Audi A5. Since it wasn't an "S" model, I couldn't post it in the Audi S area.

The purchase was rather sudden; you'll see a VW Passat in the first picture; that was my daily driver. On Friday, the transmission decided it was time to end the relationship and would not go into 1st, sometimes 2nd, and no reverse. Othertimes, I could up shift to 5th but never be able to down shift into anything! It's 10 years old so I figured it was time to rid myself of it before it nickel and dimes me to death. I'm alittle peeved becasue I JUST replace the driver side axle, both tie-rod ends, and both rotors and pads up front.

Tow truck is taking it away tomorrow so I've been de-contenting/demodifying it at a very rapid rate!!!!!

I absolutely love my new baby! It has IMO, the sexiest body shape to date from Audi. Sorry for the pics but I don't have Kirby's skills nor camera:

5's are nice! I like the way they look and with the LED lights they look mean when coming from behind.

Congrats!

Wow I was not aware the A5 looks like this - everyone talks about the S5 but this A5 looks just as sharp! I love the white on carmel interior - very classy looking for sure!

Congrats on the new ride, what's the EPA gas rating for this baby? hp?

The coupe looks so much nicer than the 4-door for this particular car!
