Hrm. Not sure what to say. The S5 looks absolutely amazing - those LEDs are so striking it's really a beautiful design. My dad has an S4 and that engine (which is even better in the S5) is really nice. Still; kind of crazy the 335i can keep for 15% less money.

15% isn't that much in this class of vehicle, especially considering the S5 gives a nicer interior (IMO), more striking and unique looks (again, IMO) and AWD.
I don't think I'd blame anyone for preferring either car, really.
My only problem is that the lease rates will inevitably be somewhere between terrible and OK whereas the 335i's rates are great... that's what would make the decision for me as I wouldn't want to own either car.
It's not? People go on and on about a few thousand $ when they talk about the G37, IS350, 335i, A4, A5, etc... The difference between the S5 and 335i/G37/IS350 etc is (likely) going to be better than 8-15k (depending on which car you compare to) stateside. I guess it's all relative.

Anyway, the S5 =
Eh... the 335i when moderately equipped is a 45-50k dollar car. The S5 will get even more expensive than that. I just don't think most people shopping in this class of car are going to let the difference between 45-50k and 52k-57k stop them from getting the car they prefer unless it's a wash anyway. I dunno about you but if I'm considering dropping that much money, I'm going to get the one I prefer even if it takes a little more $$.
But as mentioned - I'd be leasing and the 'little bit' becomes a whole lot more when you factor in the difference in leasing rates between the two vehicles.
who the hell would take the bmw 3 coupe over this? I sure as hell wouldnt.. OC your car is beautiful especially in that picture..but sorry...id still take this........
