Default What do you think of this red S5?

This car is going for list price at most dealers but one dealer has a red one that they offered to sell for 1500 discount. It has 25 miles on it and its in the showroom. What do you think?

If I had the money I'd do it except I would prefer one in white or the lighter blue.

wow, 1,500 off?? I thought these were all going for MSRP with several month long waiting lists, etc.

I drove one the other day, the Bang and Olufsen sound system is amazing. Great V8 engine too.

actually I never wanted or thought of purchasing a red car. but I am considering this one because they offered 1500 off while this car is sold for MSRP to most. I still can't decide between black, red, blue.

here are some more colors:
