introduced with manual transmission only to start, comes with a 3.2L FSI
V-6 (A5) or 4.2L FSI V-8 (S5). The S5 is reported to do 0-60 in 5.1s.
Not bad, the cockpit looks quite nice to boot. I can't afford it, but
that's one of the nicest Audis to come out in quite a while (esp. the
S5). Taka"
I've been holding back , curious and pondering the S5 and today read the
AW article. 
Cockpit is laid out very well, what's the vehicle weight?  And is the
Quattro Haldex?
That AW article is too filled with marketing froo froo. But I do like
the body style.
Need some technical details.
That FSI V8 sucks fuel in the B7 S4, according to Jim P.. Coming off a
turbo, 
That'll be a change for me, but should be quick off the line as long as
it doesn't weigh 3600 pounds!
