    2012 Audi S5 Special Edition - How many Manual vs Autos?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Curious how many of the 2012 Audi S5 "Special Editions" (only 125 produced in total) were made with manual vs automatic transmission. Given how much of the RS5 features that they share, I'm wondering if there are simply a more proportionate number of automatics. Anybody have any insight here or know how/where to find the numbers?

    I thought they were all 6 speeds?

    <edit> I did some digging, they imported 128 units, in Daytona but couldn't find the man/Tip split.

    Post in the Customer Experience subforum in the production numbers thread. Vincenzo is usually pretty quick to respond on numbers.

    Vincenzo at Audi USA was finally able to track down this info. Of the 125 outgoing Special Editions, 94 were tiptronic and 31 came in manual transmission.

    I’ve got one of the 31 manuals - still love it. Just added CF side mirror covers with sequential LED’s this last weekend.

    There was a 2012 Cabriolet S5 Special edition on sale with 38k miles for $17500 I believe in Philly for the longest time was going to get it because it had every option even adaptive cruise but it was a reconstructed car so couldn't get financing for it the color was red.
