2013 Audi S5 - Audi's S5 has performance to match its looks
The Audi S5 is stylish; frequently strangers stop me at convenience stores or gas stations to comment on it's stroking good looks. The car looks fast, and its performance lives up to its appearance. With 333 supercharged horsepower in a smallish vehicle, the Audi is fast off the line. My model is equipped with the six-speed manual transmission, which is fun to drive. The gearbox is smooth with extremely short throws, and the clutch is easy to operate. The car handles turns well. I have driven it in the Colorado mountains in both summer and winter, and the car grips hairpins firmly and powers out of the curves.
Pros
Appearance and fun performance top my list. There is plenty of headroom and legroom in front, and I'm 6'6" tall. It has an adequate trunk for two medium suitcases and a small duffle. The car is loaded with bells and whistles. The navigation system is easy to use. My car has the 550-watt Bang and Olufsen sound system, which is outstanding.
Cons
There are blind spots when backing. The rear seat is for small children or packages only, but no one said it wasn't a sports car.
