Full Review

The Audi A5 shares most of its underpinnings with the 2009 Audi A4 sedan, but its sheetmetal is completely different. The S5 (covered in a separate review at TheCarConnection.com) is very similar but appeals to a different kind of buyer, with its edgier, more flamboyant styling...

Other Choices:

The 2009 Audi A5 has a very understated appearance, as do several of its peers like the 3 Series and CLK-Class, but the A5's interior is more stylish and inviting, and the 3 Series’ interior is a bit more conservative. The Infiniti G37 Coupe has a firm ride and sharp steering, like that of the 3 Series, but it's not quite as comfortable as either coupe, and its interior can be noisy. The 3 Series has nimbler handling than the A5, and the base 328i accelerates almost as quickly as the A5's only engine, but the A5 has a roomier trunk than the 3 Series or other rivals. The CLK has the most dated appearance of these three, in a fickle portion of the market where it counts to be seen in what’s newest.

    My 2003 A4 did everything I asked of it for the four years I had it. It was far more reliable than my BMWs,and much easier to live with than the C43.(16 sparkplugs)

    It sure is gorgeous. But that’s where the good stuff ends.
    With front wheel drive and dodgy handling, it’s basically a fancy looking Accord coupe that costs $20K more.

    Never, EVER, compare Audi to Honda
