Freesole's B9 S5 Sportback Build Thread

[freesole]

I placed my order with Audi Wilmington in Delaware (Thanks Tommy and Stephen (@Audi_Salesman)) and they had my car delivered to me in Seattle, WA, this Saturday! I was stoked to finally get my hands on the car after placing the order back in mid June this year. Always wanted the sportback in North America after seeing it everywhere in Australia. Anyway, I have some plans for this car but here are the modifications so far:

• 034 Front Strut Brace
• 034 Rear Sway Bar
• 034 Trans Mount
• KW Height Adjustable Springs
• Vorsteiner VFF107 (20x10) with Continental DWS06 275/30/20 rubber

That's it so far but I do plan to get the AWE Touring system as soon as it is released and will take the car in to black out the chrome in black. I am also interested in the carbon mirror caps but not sure if I want that yet or if it is worth it. Thoughts?

[freesole]

Here is one from the front angle. Just occurred to me that all of my pictures are taken from 2-3 angles haha.

[N8!]

Very nice - that color is amazing.

[northernstar]

The silver color looks lot better than the stock photos in the brochure and the web.. Very much misleading!! Looks amazing. Congratulations.

Thanks Stephen! You made the whole transaction easy to work through. Thanks for painstakingly answering all of my questions too. I was so happy to see the car on Saturday when it was taken on the truck!

Silver looks really good on this car! I have wheels that are pretty much identical to yours that are coming in. How do you like your KW's?

[motivated]

Great looking package you have put together there.

Keep it up!

Loving them so far! Car rides without bounce and it is not overly firm either. It rides like you would expect a lowered S car to ride. Did you get the Rohana version?

No I got the Flowforme Zito ZF01's at a good deal. They've probably sold me 4 sets of wheels so far. I'm even getting a set of their ZF03s for the Q5 that I got my lady. Can't be stopped lol. Your 3.0 is epic too.

Florett is awesome. Hit my Flickr for many if you like.

I love silver because it hides dirt but to be honest I didn't think it would stand out but after seeing your pics I really like the look of silver on the S5. Great looking car.

[freesole]

Some more...

[Johnhanson]

This makes me kind of excited to see what a RS5 SB might look like

Beautiful!! That is the exact color combo I'm after... looks very very good.

[SupremePower1]

this setup is so effin proper! did you go with the stock sway bar end links? how much of a difference did you feel with the trans mount installed?

[Josh/AWE]

I agree with everyone - that looks fantastic.

Thanks guys. Loving this car already and can't wait for it to break in so I can use it properly!

I went with 034's rear sway bar but did not install the end links. Honestly, I installed the trans mount right away so I couldn't tell you what the difference would have been but I have done it also on my Q5 and there was a subtle different on acceleration and upon those up shifts.

[Mops@Nemesis]

Fly me up and I'll break it in for you

[Josh/AWE]

I have something in mind that will really set it off.

I saw the way you break in yours lol. Let's drive across the country and meet up somewhere... in Nebraska (that is kind of in the middle right?)

I have something in mind that will really set it off.

I'm getting on your Sportback Touring as soon as it is released! Already talking with Mops about it.

Like a carbon Fast & Furious wing? Look a this guy

Seriously though Freesole, this car is so clean.

[Slow4]

Ha!

I stole this pic from your IG and put it on my 'gram for a day. You have a truly beautiful S5 SB sir!

[Tommy@Nemesis]

Love those wheels, but then I think of how much longer it will take me to wash them with all that webbing and my OCD detailing......GOOD JOB on a great looking build!
