Default Audi S5

Finally picked up my Deep Sea Blue S5 last Saturday. She'd been sitting in the basement of the dealer waiting for me to give back my G35. Took it on a decent drive to Hamilton, Paris and Brantford on Saturday, but I'm breaking her in gently.

I will get pics up this weekend, weather permitting. When I'm not in it, I've been too busy staring at it to actually get my camera out!

Looking good! Bet you're loving every drive! It was a hard decision for me between the TT and S5. (So tell me it's really not that great! )

Your 3.2 TT is a pretty spectacular vehicle. Not sure I'd be unhappy with either car. I'll tell you one thing though - my V8 isn't nearly as economical on gas.

That said, it's pretty amazing so far. No complaints at all. At some point I'll get it to Mosport for some lapping days. Then I'll really be able to tell you if I made the right decision!

It's funny you mention the gas mileage. I never used to think that way before. I'm sure most of us didn't. In the end of my decision making process it did become a pretty big factor. That being said, your V8 wallops my VR6, but I guess at a thirsty price.

I filled up my Volvo XC90 V8 the other day for the first time in a month or so...nearly fell over as it went over $100!
