Howdy Folks,


I'm new to Audi but I fell in love with the S5. I'm on my 2nd infiniti FX(great car). But the S5 is something special.

I test drove one yesterday and it was amazing. I know there are faster cars out there for that kind of money but hardly anything with it'sbeauty, abilitiesand refinement. It was raining and it was rock solid. The interior was superb.

The dealer took my money and ordered the car form Germany. The salesmen said they are WAY backordered. Decent guy, and truthful. He said it could take up to November to get here. My question is thus., Is he just covering his bases to be safe or is it really gonna take that long. If so why? Does that sound right to you guys?

Thanks for your thoughts and input. I look forward to being a good member of this forum.

 

Congrats! You're now the most hated person on the forum!

J/K

But yeah, S5's are waaaaaaaaay backordered, kinda like E92's

 

That means by the time I can afford one, hopefully the demand will be caught up.

 

man there are so many jealous people (myself included) on this forum...

 

Go to http://mobile.de and find a brand new A5. the ship it to US. It shoul dcost no more then $2000 for the shipping.

 

Thanks guys, I'm already going nuts thinking about the car and the wait.

Any dealer people outhere who read this? Perhaps you can shed some light on the wait time.

Thanks,

Did ya'll hear the rumor about a RS-5 yikes. twin turbo 4.2L V8. What a monster that would be.

 

Congrats you should post up some pics.

 

Congrats on not reading the post.[sm=lame.gif]

 

Got a little excited. Last time i was at my Audi dealer there was an S5 sitting out on the lot. Hopefully you will get your car soon good luck.

 

Guys, the dealer called me today and said they got in a regular A5. I declined, he said the main two issues for slow delivery is Europe comes first and the demand for the 4.2L V8. Sigh.
