Default i found my future car

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...topanel..1.*#6

the A5 coupe 2+2 seating, so sexy

and this is the best part of it
Unlike Audi's current models which have their engines hung out in front of the front axle,
de Nysschen explained that the A5 will feature a revised design that moves the engine farther back
so it sits directly over the front axle.
this translate to less understeer

i wonder how much its gonna cost

It is nice looking even with that bad paint job. If Audi prices that right, they will sell a lot of those.

Yeah. They need to somehow get it priced closer to the G35 coupe instead of more than a Cayman S. It's not their business model to try to sell G35 numbers, but still Audi could benefit from some agressive pricing.

I'm sure it will be very nice. The engine placement is going to be a big improvement in itself I agree.

i think the car itslef could be pretty sweet.. But like i aws just saying..their pricing has been a bit silly or soem of their other decisions.. ahem r8 ahem.

the r8 is a sweet car, but honestly.. you want to sell a $100k car with a 4.2l v8 with waht was it.. 420hp. Thats pretty ridiculous.
