Just got to sit inside an S5!!!

[LampyB]

I'm walking my dog this morning and almost flipped out when I saw a red S5 parked right in front of my building. As I was drooling over the car the owner walked out, and he's a test technician from germany. They just give him brand new cars and he has to drive them at least 300 miles per weekend. He does this for a job...jesus!

The car was f*cking siick btw! Front end looked meaner than anything I've ever seen. The push button start/stop was cool. I pushed stop and turned the engine off. He then handed me the key, and the infrared technology allows you to just push the clutch in and push the button to start the car as long as the key is within a certain distance of the computer. Really cool....

Also said it packed something like 315hp!

ps. This guy lives in Germany and gets to test these cars on the autobahn...damn what a cool job.

[Hamann]

Nice...yeah, Lexus and a few other models have that push start option too...it's pretty cool. do the doors also unlock with the key in your pocket too?

So, I take it you liked it?

[OverSpun]

Thats awesome! I really hope it has more than 315hp though, because that would be incredibly weak if thats true.

[Howard Hughes]

Atleast he was cool and let you check it out..... and I thought it was supposed to be more in the 350-375hp range...

[akaEsCo01]

315 is weaksauce for a S model Audi, I thought it was getting the S4 motor?

[mobbin6]

He probably said 350hp, but you couldn't tell cuz of his german accent [:D]

He probably said 350hp, but you couldn't tell cuz of his german accent [:D]

That's just PIMPIN'

[LampyB]

Audi's literature says 354hp. Too bad you didn't get any pics...

[xbatmit3x]

i wish you took a picture or a few pictures... an a5 is the a big reason im not driving a 335i right now... that and wanting to save for a house

[quattshot]

I hope your girlfriend crossed her fingers when she swore on 315hp....lol

[coryliv]

that sounds awesome. hp is probably over 350 as stated previously as it couldn't be less than the s4. also the key fob is probably radio frequency as infrared requires line of sight to work (like a tv remote). ir wouldn't work in your pocket but rf would.

Alot more than 315
