Audi A5 S5 Pricing Announced
9 Jul, 2007
25 Comments 
Earlier this year we found ourselves at the launch of the new Audi A5/S5. Back then Audi were tight lipped about pricing and specification, a month went past and more details emerged, and as of today, Audi has announced pricing for the new A5 and S5 Coupe models arriving in October.
Audi believes the A5/S5 will fill a gap for a touring coupe in its line up. Audi Australia’s Managing Director, Mr Joerg Hofmann, says the new A5 Coupe is the best in its class.
“This new Coupe is a stunning vehicle and we believe it is the best in its class. With competitive pricing, advanced engine technology and elegant design, the A5 and S5 models will surely turn the heads of the luxury car-buying public,” Mr Hofmann said.
The A5/S5 will land in Australia in October this year, pricing for the A5 will start from $91,900 for the 3.2-litre FSI multitronic version with 195kW of power and 330Nm of torque.
Audi will also offer the Audi S5 at the same time, priced at $131,900, the sporty S5 will be powered by a 4.2-litre V8 quattro which puts out 260kW of power and 440Nm of torque.
Audi will offer more engine variants in 2008 with a 1.8-litre TFSI (125kW) and 3.0 TDI (176kW and 500Nm) engine joining the lineup.
Audi will release specification and equipment levels for the A5/S5 closer to the release date.

Yep looks cool but is it just me or is the povety pac one expensive for that amount of grunt. At$91,900 for the 3.2-litre with 195kW of power and 330Nm of torque. I think I would go the 335Ci, which gets a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged six-cylinder good for 225kW and 400Nm of torque. It sells from $108,500, But hey that’s me. Would be good to put them up against each other though

I would go for a Beemer instead, way better handling than the Audi!

Beemer is a BMW motorcycle you mean Bimmer. The Audi isn’t even been test driven by car press so how do you know how it handles. According to top gear in UK a Audi S4 kicks a BMW M3’s ass in handling. Audi A3, A4, A5 beats the hell out of BMW in crash test ratings too. BMW cars are getting uglier, and everyone owns BMW’s now so its not an elite club anymore.

Hey Jason ,did you read that Bimmer Beemmer thing a mag recently too?
The Top Gear episode your talking about is that the New V8M3 or the 7 year old E46M3 ?
BMW getting uglier hey,then why does it seem Audi has styled their latest A5/S5 off BMWs latest Coupe,if you don’t look at the hideous Audi grill I think side profile and especially the rear look the same. Audi it seems are so hell bent on trying to catch BMW & Merc over the last few years there now coping designs too!
Everyone owns a BMW do they ,MMMMMMMMM gee maybe EVERYBODYS buying them cause there good cars thought of that !
Not an Elite club anymore ha!
MMM I bet if you asked 10 people in the street what car they would prefer in Audi or BMW for snob value more would rate BMW,sorry mate but BMWs prestige rating has been around a lot longer than Audi,their still trying to get the market from Lexus ,Merc & BMW.
Oh and when I bought my first BMW 20 something years ago where was Audi ? I know the Quattro was a great vehicle for its time but was hardly cheap and limited numbers came in to Aus too from memory. So as I paid I think $30,000 for my 323 BMW at the time what could I have had from Audi then that would have prevented my love affair with BMW since ………… From memory Audis really were ugly to then ha…….all square shaped!

I’d go the BM, I’m not really sold on the way the A/S5 looks. I don’t like the squiggly line that runs along side of the car, reminds me of a Hyundai Elantra :S. Probably a car that looks good in reality and not on paper/screen.

Hopefully this will lead to an RS5.

Wow, you guys are so serious when it comes down to germans,
well I have seen them both on the road and looks wise, the Audi S5 wins handsdown, and if were talking about the S5 the Audi should also win hands down in performance against a BMW 335CI, well thats MHO, but you guys can all decide for yourselves.

good but never as good as a Mercedes CL..The AMG version is my favorite car 6.3V8 1000NM..i guess its a shame to talk “power” about the S5 but it’s cheaper
(Report)
November 25th, 2007 at 8:35 am
thats because it doesnt compete with the CL, it competes with the clk…. And you 6.3 V8 doesnt have 1000nm of torque your talking about the bi turbo cl65 v12….. Guess you need to do some research on your favourite mercedes….

Yeah Right………
Where is Audi beating BMW these days….I think thats your opinion and as much as your entilled too it back it up in future!
I have nothing against Audi you clearly do BMW.I think its good to have some competition but some one has to be the leader,learn some respect of other brands BMW have earn’t their awards fair and square!
So what sort of Audi do you drive

I myself love the 335i coupe defenetly not the 4 door they sure made it look like a girlie car as might as well make it in pink color,I own the 2000 328ci but its shame that after 125k miles seems car is falling apart,
But I never had to take a double take on the S5 which was driving on the coast hwy that was a beauty now I don’t know much about the power and handling on that but it sure looked gorgeous in Blk reminds me of a Maserati or a Aston Martin…….

im buying an Audi S5 Blk on Blk and I have test driven both the S5 and the 335xi coupe and i have to say the S5’s handling destroyed the 335xi, the way that thing took the turns on a sharp curved road made me moan. I loved it. now i have never had an audi before. i have had a mercedes and I had a chrysler 300 sr10 which i didnt really like that much, but handling and looks wise the S5 is the best and BTW it looks sooooo much better in person than in a picture and that goes for 90% of audi cars so bavarian stop hateing just cuz u can only afford a 20 year old bmw….i gotta get to class

I have to say, that the A5 took my breath away the first time I saw it on the road. I’ve always loved my CLK 430 with the AMG sport’s package, but this car makes me want to cheat on it and have a little naughty affair. I can’t wait to be the first girlie on the block with this kick-ass Audi!!!!!

guys,
my last car was a bmw 325i with smg gearbox loved it, i was looking at the new 135i as a possible replacement but having just test driven the A5 was suitably impressed with its vehicles comparison to the bmw. still undecided

I’ve had a Merc for 6 years and I can assure you the A5 is better, as for the BM, well I thought it was great too, but pound for pound, the A5 wins. Furthermore, I do agree with those who said the BM is getting ugly, it sure is!

Oh its pretty its soooo pretty.

Tthe bmw costs 18% more for 15% more power, so I see that as more of a non event than anything worth mentioning. Plus the BMW looks 95% the same as a car worth 50k, The A5 is stand alone also the bmw looks old worldly to me and the A5 looks like sex.
Snob value or head turning with drooling??
I choose shagging in a back alley over doing tea with the jones’es.
In Summary if the A5 handles 90% as well as the BMW I would be choosing one, if more 90% I would take to laughing at the stupid BMW drivers.

I can’t believe that your actually trying to classify the BMW with the audi lol. That’s like wiping before you poop haha it doesn’t make sense. The A5 is the ultimate panty dropper and I’m sorry not everyone can be as classy as to drive it or afford it. Its an amazing driving machine the should only be reserved for people who truly appreciate its german engineering and style
