ya i will have to agree on that one too... as much as i believe audi parts and technology has gotten better than the audi of the past i would still wait on buying first generation technology, wait till the 3.0 supercharged is proven. plus nothin compares to the rumble of a v8!!!!!!!!!

Pole Position
So... Audi will be replacing the 4.2 V-8 in the S5 later in 2009 with the SAME all-new forced induction V-6 found in the upcoming 2010 S4. Hp for both around 333hp with 17/27 mpg AND 0-62 in 5.1 seconds... the S5, currently, gets 14/21 mpg with 340hp.
The question: S5- with the incredible looks, couple handling (yes, it will handle better, already beats S4 in Europe track/slalom/skid tests) with 2 less doors and aproximately $10K more ($55K-$63K)
-OR-
S4- two more doors, higher ride, slightly narrower, has operational moonroof, smaller rims... $50K, arriving late srping/early summer
Which would you choice? And if the S5, the current V-8 or upcoming forced V-6?
I LOVE the S5, but the S4 looks VERY goooooooood <Hannibal Lector voice>...........

The lesser weight of the V6 translates to better handling then the V8.
In short : faster,better handling and more economical.
