Now if they offer it in the S4 or S5 Sportback, SOLD! The Ultra Quattro part sounds like for sure on the A5, but speculation is the V6T might have too much torque

Manual for A5 with Quattro Ultra yes, but there is no manual for the S4 or S5. Tiptronic only.

Ya I got click baited by the original headline from Autoblog and missed the S5 getting only tiptronic. Was overly excited I wasn't going to need to buy a BMW afterall.
